3F intense red. Fantastic beer.

 

[hopstar1]

That was a delicious beer, especially for only being 2.7% or whatever it is. If it wasn't $12 per 6pk I would drink the **** out of it all day long.

I've heard mixed reviews, so I've been really hesitant to buy one at $18 a bottle.

Jeppe makes some great beers. We're lucky to have him here in NYC.

$12/6 pack is much better than $6 for an 11.2oz bottle though

Yeah there are some haters. It's a favorite of the guys I drink with and I think it's the best kriek out there. It's worth $18.

Indeed. I've been drinking a lot more of his beer since he shifted most of the production to CT and lowered the prices. Yin and Yang for under $4 a bottle is a frigging steal. His brother could learn a thing or two about making tasty beer at a reasonable price point. Case in point, the Vanilla Shake I had yesterday was ****ing incredible, but at $10 I won't be buying very many. If he could put it in a 4 pack for $20 or less it would probably be a staple in my fridge.

True, but if I'm going to drink a 12 pack of something while floating down a river, I would prefer to spend less than $2 per can.

I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the heads up.

The coffee beans in that one are expensive. I'm sure the price on that one isn't coming down unfortunately.

I like it but would like it a little more sour as the cherry flavor is very strong. It should age very well IMO

Hmm, do you think that's the issue? The new batch of Beer Geek Breakfast in 11.2oz bottles is now priced at $6.50 or so, and it seems like the only difference between the two is the addition of vanilla beans. I know vanilla beans aren't cheap, but I can't help but think that if he moved production stateside (eliminating transatlantic shipping costs) he could hit a $5/bottle price point.

Gin and juice on BART and lots of 20oz Rangers in Oakland!

 

[Mandark]

3F intense red. Fantastic beer.

Will be opening one of those later tonight, in memory of the BA bloodbath these past few days. For now it's a fresh Pilsner Urquell and "better luck next year" to the Cubs....

 

[housepants]

It is like drinking sour cherry juice. It is good, but it is so sweet with barely enough sour that it doesn't really line up with other kriek's I've had. Closest one is Boon Mariage Parfait Kriek, though the boon is less juice like and more funky than the 3F. I had it at a fest so it is easy for me to say I won't buy it for $18, but it isn't a bad beer by any means.

 

[Mandark]

**** glassware Nazis, this works just fine for this excellent beer....

 

[Devi0us]

Next up...


Seriously, trade for this...


Cheers!

 

[ExPimp]

A little late to the party. Just crushed a delicious IPA from ABW.

Solid. How old is that bottle? I have a 2010 I put in the main fridge a few weeks ago that I've been thinking about opening...

Pouring a little blood red for all the blood spilled this weekend....@grumpyoldtroll

Sweet, but not cloying, with enough tart to make it right.
