You guys make me so proud. Coffee Cinn is always one of the best beers I have every year.

So cracked open the Abnormal pappy set last night while playing board games. 4 definitely hit the green pepper, why the **** would anyone drink this, should we just pour the rest of it out..ok stage. None of them were life altering, but they were still delicious. I would say 3, 1, 2, 4 would be my order from favorite to least.

I also learned that those beers gives my better half some super secret board game skills since she whooped our asses at Puerto Rico (like...really bad where it almost didn't seem fair, or that she had 3 more turns than the rest of us). The beers also did not help me with my Scythe skills at all. They might have made them worse. Both games I got 2nd with me sharing the 2nd place victory with the better half in Scythe.

Alright. I put it in the fridge while I went out for beers and wine. Cold it tasted like bitter fudge. Very much close to m3. It has more dark chocolate and vanilla flavors than most beers I have had. be It tastes like ba m3 which I looovvveeee. Warmed up....there was a slickness that also had a sourness which might be the barrel....
In all flavor it tasted like ba M3 which is a oaked chocolate marshmallow. I also hate to say marshmallow because it was M3 that was my first "marshmallow" flavored beer.

 

[DannyFullpint]

I loved fresh M3.

Glad you got one of the good bottles then.

I think I did get the lock of the draw. I asked the wife if she spotted anything off with the beer about half way through and she said no. I asked her if she could taste green pepper and she said no.

Happy early New Years you scoundrels. What's in your lineup for tonight?

BA M3 was/is not good. *ducks lightning*

Apparently Great Notion while I escape from the family for a bit.

BA M3 was top notch. This has less barrel and bourbon than ba m3

Confirmed I am old...passed out before midnight and apparently slept through ppl setting off fireworks, my dog running to my side of the bed shaking because of those fireworks and then jumping up and cuddling. Poor little guy.....ah well. Cheers to you all for another year of drunken ramblings, ****** west coaster articles, me homering alesmith, and being a degenerate.

Happy New Year everybody! **** you 2017!

2017 was full of a lot of really bad ****, a lot of really good ****, and a buncha whatever ****, and one thing's for sure: 2018 will probably be the same.

But with more brewery closures, like SpecHops and Kuracali biting the dust.

 

[riko1]

Hard to believe we're at the point where breweries can open and close without me ever hearing of them.

 

[Tyrsis]

who and who?

The SpecHops announcement was especially incredible.



You were part of the "Golden Age" of beer and likely nobody here has EVER heard of you? gtfo

 

[arren]

Haha oh man, I just read through those comments.

Has this shown up on draft yet? https://thefullpint.com/beer-news/pizza-port-brewing-introduces-surf-stop-pale-ale/

Sounds good on paper.

It was on at OB as of last week, can't say I was in love with it.

 

[nanobrew1]

Weird for them to say they have been in the business for 7 years, when reality is they are under a year old. Still sucks for them. Taking 7 years to open is not a step in the right direction for longevity... sounds like another place I know who is trying to open

It’s not uncommon for start up companies to use their year of incorporating or whatever other mechanism they use to legally be a company. I believe thats what they meant, but it sounds dumb as hell for sure.

I think this statement covers the majority of beer releases.

True. But I expect PP to always execute to a high level. Of course they have their misses but it's rare. I wish they would just keep Graveyard around all year.

*cough* Iron Triangle Brewing *cough*

Vista is very crowded, it too long for them to open, and they didn't make good enough beer to stand out. Not long before Miramar gets hit with similar closures.
