In and around Atlanta, it is sometimes the only decent beer available at a non-beer centric place, so in that situation I will drink it and not complain. But I'll never choose it at the store or over any number of other IPAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May consider this my last chance for a fire (thank God we put the fireplace out on the porch), and May open (not like they'll rot or anything) and taste the scotches left for me by the Mardi Gras horde (a Skye called Talisker Storm, and an Islay by the name of Ardbeg). May your days be merry and bright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ardberg in particular might be an excellent accompaniment, or at least worthy adversary to your unfiltered Camels. 11 minutes ago, Tiger Refuge said: I have attempted to temper my excitement.

AUDub 11,153 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I know the opinion on teku glasses tend to be a bit mixed in the craft community, but they just look so got danged cool. At $3.50, I wasn't turning two of them down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShocksMyBrain 9,367 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Flavor isn’t bad, pretty roasty. Some brininess from the oysters(I think). Thin for 8%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty particular when it comes to stouts. If it has a metallic taste, which a lot of them do, I’m instantly turned off. Usually comes with the thin ones.

I think that’s why I tend to lean towards the BBA stouts myself. I guess I was more referencing that it’s getting decent reviews for being an Abita product.

There is so much good beer coming out of south LA right now that Abita is all but forgotten. Strange how that works. They went from literally the only craft brewery in LA to snubbed in a matter of 5 years. ETA- I assume you are referring to Hop On? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShocksMyBrain 9,367 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Ooof I’m hurting today. Wife’s bday and celebrating AU’s share of the SEC. Was drinking the new Lagunitas’ Sumpin’ Easy. 5.7%, I believe it’s an APA...at least it tasted like one. And some bourbon cocktail which is what did me in. Gonna go die now.
