Tiger Refuge 6,670 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Founders has FINALLY arrived here. It’s sad that I get excited about that, but it’s the state of craft beer here. It is what it is. I’ll support by consuming my share. Picked up a sixer of Azacca and a 4 pack of Breakfast Stout yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Breakfast Stout is killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUld fAUx@ 2,584 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Still gleaning from the leavings of my Mardi Gras horde. Has Arrogant Bastard Ale been discussed here? Solid, competent, probably wouldn't travel long distances for it, but will go to again whenever it's left in my cooler. Bottle literature, however, is a bit, um, Arrogant ["You're not Worthy...You probably won't like it...It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or the sophistication...etc."] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was so incredibly abrasive at the time, but I grew to like it quite a bit. Haven't had one in a long time, though. As you said, not really a destination beer for me anymore. But I do have a sentimental fondness for it. Even the literature, which I'm pretty sure is a put-on. I think... Gotta love beer left over from a party. Hope you had a great Mardi Gras.

It’s in Nashville, but not in Memphis(of course). Haven’t heard of Kronik, but like almost all Lagunitas I’m sure it’s a quality brew packed with hops.

They even had to cancel/re-work Hunahpu's Day, IIRC. Oskar Blues should definitely help with the distro. Good news for all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
