I’ve been wanting to try that one. I plan on ordering that the next time I make one.
Shorts (I believe. Might have been Stone?) had a ‘Christmas Tree IPA’, and I thought it sounded goofy enough to be interesting, and it was really damned good. I haven’t seen it in a few years though, sadly. That brew sounds interesting. Something about the hops playing on the pine flavor made it a 9 to me. ![]()
Russian River doesn’t miss ![]()
can’t remember ever having a Hop Butcher but will keep an eye out ![]()
I think I’ve found this weekend’s indulgence; 2 of my favorite breweries and I only live ~3 miles from each but I’ve never seen this collab.
Found that at a bar in Sutter Creek, up in the foothills of the Sierra (of all places!).
Excellent, well-balanced Hazy. In fact, everything I’ve had from Abnormal has been quite good.
I’m a big fan of Harland’s Hazy IPA and I’ve heard good things about Black Plague, so I was keen to give this one a try, but it was too dry and kinda tasteless for my liking. Still totally drinkable and might come alive if paired with the right food but it lacks the juiciness that I like.
Solid ★★★★☆
Hazy Dreams makes me want to find Abnormal beer locally, and Dream Responsibly.
Also going to look out for Business Oracle.
I red to get me some of that while it is available.
I was told they will be bring out more minikegs! So hoping one finds its way here somewhere/somehow where I can snag one. I DID end up with one too many years ago. To say it was rare was apparently an understatement, as no one had apparently ever seen one! Luckily I saved the carcass. I thought everyone had access to one. If it was rare here, did ‘anyone’ else get one?
It was so nice having a snort of Hopslam without having to open another can. (I have never seen it in bottles)
