Thank you--did you like it, and are they still brewing it or was it a one time thing?

Yes, I liked it.  I think it may be a limited edition.  But I will ask around.

And they have a short glass that it pours into. I've got 2 of them...works good for wine too.

Did get a 4 pack of KBS. It's everywhere now. I remember when in was one bottle per person years ago. Hell I remember when Breakfast Stout was one bottle per person in 2005. 

So many special beers are not so special anymore. Maybe that's why I don't search for them anymore.

I hear ya brother. Same, I never hunt for shit anymore. No need!

Agreed.  Founders really became mass with all the CBS released last year.

 

Very few unicorns out there.  Still would like to get Maine Dinner and Russian River Younger.

Wife came home with an Old Rasputin the other day.

Love that woman.

Millersburg Brewing has been mentioned here a few times.

I like the French Ridge IPA. 

I just picked up a seasonal from them called Lot 2 Blonde Ale. Pretty good. 

The next one I want to try from them is Major Holmes IPA at 9%.

It's been a long 9 years, but I had my first Guinness. Wouldn't have one until I was able to in Ireland.

Delicious. More to come tonight before I leave tomorrow.

Protip: Find CBS, not as good as years past, but still elite

Yep, like this one a lot. Our golf club has 16 oz cans for the same price as all of the 12 oz craft beer cans. Easy choice.

Wife came home from the store the other day with a sixer of Gumballhead and a sixer of Dragon's Milk White.  Been enjoying those for a few days.

Nice.

I was wondering what they charge for that?

It's either $5 or $6. I can't remember exactly.

Small brewery out of Wyoming. Recommended by a friend who works at a restaurant that carries it. Love the hop balance.

I love Melvin. Not only was that my grandpa's name, but they also make great beer. Love that they distribute to Ohio now.

Saw Jackie O trending on Twitter. Was worried, but it was just Trump blathering about Milania and a former first lady.

Had a Ruination this evening.

It's hard to go wrong with Stone ... except their Scorpion Bowl IPA.  I thought that was kinda gross.

Vanilla BCBS was great. The only one I double dipped on was from Hi-Wire out of Ashville NC. They had a sour brown ale aged on Palo Santo wood. I was pretty blow away by it. Late in the finish it dried your mouth up like tannins from a dry red wine...making want another sip to wet your mouth.

No, even though it's a Cincy beer none was to be found there. I saw there they are tearing down the old Hudepohl Brewery though with it's epic smokestack.

Went for day 2 of beer fest. Living Proof-Wild Ale was impressive from Country Boy Brewing. Never had anything from them until then. I actually tried this one twice. Deschutes brought The Dissident Marionberry 2018 Reserve and that was delicious.
