Seems like Beau's is all over the place with their brews these days. All the mix packs, gruits, Farm Table series, that Buenos Dias margarita beer...I can't figure them out. And nothing that really stands out IMO.

I enjoyed a number of their Greener Futures beers, but even then towards the end of the program there were many that I didn't really enjoy.

Everytime I learn something new I forget something old...like that time I learned to make wine and then forgot how to drive...

Oh, how I've missed you Karmeliet. Citrusinesis and Tulsa Twister look interesting.

Is this the Weltenburger Kloster Asam Bock? Had it years ago at Chester's and thoroughly enjoyed it if so.
