    Amazing. Only you could fall into a situation with the most inept cashier on the eastern seaboard. Cheers kid.

    Sorachi Ace is an awesome beer. Up until I bought that bottle of Faithful Ale, I am pretty sure the bottle of Sorachi was the most expensive bottle of beer I had ever bought. And based on the cost of those two beers after having the faithful I wished I had bought another bottle of Sorachi Ace instead.

    I actually hadn't heard of this until I saw it on the shelf. Sounds good. I will probably save it for a month or so until the spring.

    I doubt many of you have access, but the Central Waters Illumination is great. I'm normally not a big fan of theirs, but their specialty 4 packs are usually primo brew.

    Have we had this face off yet?
    Hellhound, Bitches Brew, Faithfull Ale
    I've had Faithfull Ale and it was underwhelming. Wasn't really a fan of Hellhound either. However, I did get a bottle of Bitches Brew the other day and waiting to open.
    How would you guys rank em?

  • I have in my possession two bottles each of Stone Arrogant Bastard, Double Bastard and the Vertical Epic 11-11-11. Now just to decide on which one to try tonight....
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    Anyone hear that DFH Pangea is being retired? The kid at my local store looked it up today on his iphone and it said it was being retired. So I picked up the second to last bottle just in case. Other notable acquisitions today for youngster:

    DFH Fort
    DFH Hellhound
    DFH World Wide Stout (x2)
    Weinstephaner
