I am glad they all made the trip. That full malted jacket was a small release and it took me a few trips to finally find it. The Angelino ipa is Angel City Brewing's first bottle. The home-brew is my first attempt at a saison hope you like it.

Ok guys! It's time for the finale!

These look like some great brews! I'm especially pumped for the stuff from Maine and Jack's Abby. I've heard so many great things about those two breweries. ANd that sour cherry stout sounds RIDICULOUS!

Thanks John!!

We have to wait for TheMan to start the new thread. It won't be until after the 14th and he apparently has some cool ideas for round five.

Firestone does some really impressive stuff. Their IPAs are killer and IMO nothing compares to the barrel program.

That's because there isn't one.

I can totally believe it. That beer got better and better the closer I got to the end. Really surprised me. Didn't know i was such a fan of dark IPAs !

Val, the growler contains a beer which was only brewed once and will not be brewed again. It's called Replicale. The members of the Illinois brewers guild every year each brew a beer with the same ingredients, fitting within the same parameters but each brewery uses a different hop. The offering from Tighthead this year uses centennial hops. Here's a link to more info on the project http://www.illinoisbeer.com/replicaleproject/ I hope it stayed carbonated for you, I gave it a few extra wraps of electrical tape to hopefully add a little insurance. I hope you enjoy!

Tasty brew. You can totally smell the centennial. The travel did not help the carbonation it was a bit flat but, nonetheless it's a great brew. Thank you sir!
