What do you think of them? They seem to be hit and miss. I'm reluctant to spend the $ when some of their stuff is just meh.
Wow. Blue Point's sour cherry stout.
Enjoy a Stella at a hotel bar in DC... trying to stay warm. I know the glass isn't right, but it is still good.

I have a bottle of that sitting in my cellar. Love a sour cherry Manhattan. Does it need age or drink it soon?
Are you hunkered down at that hotel bar for the night, or do you want some recommendations on some good craft beer spots?
Sadly....just a coke zero......have given up weekday drinking!.......for a month or so!......need to be In a bikini in just over a month!......come on Friday......need a glass (read bottle) of Pinot Grigio!

I take it you have a warm weather vacation coming up? I was supposed to go on a cruise in March. Turns out it was the same exact Royal Caribbean ship that people are having the Out-both-ends ailment right now.
Another HB Breakfast stout

On the other hand they are taking severe measures to sanitize the entire ship.
It's decent. It's not as heavy as I thought it would be, which may be a disappointment. Not super sour either.

thats not CT is it???!!?!??!
I'll never give up weekday drinking. I workout too hard not to be able to treat myself to a beer or six on a weeknight. Summer is around the corner. Beer is not the problem - one's diet normally is. Stop slackin'.
Bottled my black ale. Time for another beer.
I am definitely open to any good craft beer recommendations you have. If I don't make it further than the bar tonight, I will have some time tomorrow.

Maybe if you call up and kindly 'express your concerns' you may get some money back. I am sure they are in damage control mode currently. Though I am not one to game the system.
Maybe I am an enabler, maybe I am a bad influence, but one glass won't bust your diet would it? If you want to kill a diet, hang out in the meat smoking section or the What are you cooking this weekend threads. If you havent been on a cruise yet, enjoy yourself. It is a great time.
This will be our second cruise!....did the Allure a while back!

I had a bottle a few months ago. From what hello described I'd pretty spot on from what I experienced. I was hoping for more cherry flavor but it was almost non existent. Maybe some age will do it better. Bottles just sit on shelves here so I may grab another one to see if I have a different opinion.

By the way, Welcome to the alchie thread and HBT.
Feel free to post bikini pics. Just make sure you're holding a beer so it's topical.
my tapeworm wanted my Lower Brow IPA, so I had to oblige!
