    Very nice!  I recently had the Xhops Teal which was pretty good.  I always stock up on some Toppling Goliath bombers whenever I'm in Wisconsin.  The double dry hopped Psuedo Sue is one of my favorite beers.

    Had a chance to stop by Troegs this weekend and also discovered Snitz Brewing from Lebanon,PA. Troegs speaks for itself and Snitz had some very good beers. Snitz had this smoked bologna beer that had a very unique taste.

    Had some 2.5 year old Avery Tweak from.the original Avery (not tourist Avery).. Was in my fridge all that time. LIsted as 17.8% abv but was definitely  more.
     
    From Beer Advocate...."Tweak is Avery Mephistopheles Imperial Stout, with a chunk of coffee thrown in. If you haven’t geeked out enough, the brewery aged in four months in bourbon barrels."

    I picked these up during my travels. Both were aged by the brewery already. 2013 and 2014 respectively. I just hope they are ok in my luggage...
    the town of Visalia has 4 breweries in it... FOUR!  All within a mile of each other. How cool is that!?!

    I've tried on sour ale. Iy was enough to convince me to never try another.

    That Lupu-Luau is soooo good.  Had it on draft last week.  Not as bitter as most IPAs and the coconut is very subtle at the end, not overpowering or too sweet.  Great blend of top end bitterness, smooth & refreshing in body, and just the right amount of sweetness to complement the back end.  Bravo to Mr. Calagione on that one!  Hope there's still some left in the keg when I go to the bar tonight.

    Spotted Cow is indeed a damn good beer. New Glarus has some other good ones as well.  I'd recommend trying the others if you haven't already.
