Had a nice box of brew from jcmm_brew on my porch today! Gonna get into some IPAs tonight before I head to singapore tomorrow. Thanks man! ImageUploadedByHome Brew1393469639.452600.jpg
 
I don't know if I could ever drink at a zoo. I'd get into too much trouble.

I went to a "Brew at the Zoo" fest a few years ago. I was hoping they would have the beer booths spread out around the zoo exhibits, but they didn't, they were all in an open area at one end. Was a pretty good beer fest for the area though.

They have one at both the Brookfield and Lincoln Park zoos now. I haven't been to either one, but figured that would be a good excuse to take the wife to the zoo. Went to Zoo Lights at Brookfield in December and my buddy and I snuck 4 good bombers in, so we kind of made our own Brew at the Zoo.
 
I always seem to pass on that coconut porter when I am at the bottle shop. I really need to grab some up. Also, I saw shelves completely full of 4 different Eclipse variants last time I was at Total Wine, but I just couldn't justify $30 per bottle for myself although when my divorce settlement comes in I may grab one or two to sit on.

MBC is probably in my top five favorite breweries, and we don't even get distro from them. I had it when I was married in Maui and I was hooked. I would really give it a shot if you haven't had it before.
I had a few of the Eclipse, probably my favorite variant would be Java, with the EC not far behind. Pricey, though.

I will do just that tomorrow when I get paid then! Too many beers and not enough time or money...
I am a coffee fiend so the Java would be the one I bite the bullet on if I do decide to spring for one.

I've had a wide variety of their brews....Mana wheat and Coconut Porter are probably my top picks, though. If you don't like them, I take blame!

Well, I have seen many good reviews of the porter here and elsewhere so feel safe purchasing them. Hell, if I don't like them I know who to contact to take them off my hands :mug:
 
Soooo pretty! Thanks Scott! Some of these won't survive the hour

Sent from my DROID RAZR using Home Brew mobile app

Rockin' man glad they made it safely. Enjoy! BTW you pulled 3 hatchets and 3 coconuts out of there, right? Only saw 2x each pictured so someone else I shipped to may be getting a surprise haha
 
Nice score from splattsmier. All arrived safe and sound. Thanks Scott! Can't wait to dive in.

Glad they made it safely, bud. You and duffman both said you favored stouts so I went a little apes*** with them haha. Enjoy!

EDIT: A note on that cherry stout - the fruit becomes detectable once it warms up, but it's a touch faint. My buddy and I are doubling uup the #s of cherries in the current batch
 
Got an awesome BIF box from Coyote68 this morning. First growler Ive ever received, great selection, and a bunch of HB. Thanks Joe :D

Box 1 of 2 from TheMan arrived today. Thanks Justin! So happy you found another 4pk of Abrasive! Looks like I'll be popping my Surly cherry in style!

On a related note: this is, believe it or not, the first time I've seen a beer in a chicken feather bottle.
