    mild as in it reminded me a little of a blue moon but i thought it was pretty weak in taste. there just wasn't a lot there. it definintely has a higher alcholol content but it was just lacking in flavor. I don't know, it was just boring.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    It was very unadventurous for a DFH beer that's for sure.

    Not sounding worth OOP vinyl. People are really trying to capitalize on this & its kind of gross. Beer for vinyl. I thought I'd seen it all.

    it's just a beer with a label that happens to say Pearl Jam. as with the backpack, where you could just buy a PJ20 patch and sew it on yourself to any old bag, grab your favourite brew, and make your own label.

    people go a little crazy over the name sometimes. the dvd, now that's a whole nuther ball o' wax. :lol:

    The difference is that there are a lot of people (including myself) who sort of collect beers. I don't know anyone who does that with backpacks.

    You can buy a lot of beer every week, yet you buy a backpack every few years. I get what you're saying though- for those who don't love beer it is sort of weird to get it just for the bottle.

    Exactly this. I'm a huge PJ fan, and a huge DFH fan so this is a match made in heaven for me. I guess if somebody is a huge Patagonia fan then the backpack makes sense for them too, but I don't understand the hype behind the backpack. But, I'm sure people also don't understand the hype around the beer either. To each their own.

    Yea craft beer (especially DFH) and music (especially Pearl Jam) are my two biggest non- essential cash items :lol:. So this coming out was amazing. I had it on tap but now I need a few bottles too (hopefully a full case).

  • I picked up my unopened bottle on ebay for $29.

    Worth less than about 95% of all my vinyl.
