The Fou Foune was amazing - huge apricot and a wonderful tartness... I'll need to get some more of that one! The Norrebro was great... too bad its now all sold out otherwise I'd be after a case!

With a little luck, we will see Helene again this fall.

It's really a shame we don't get any Bell's here. World class stuff, particularly their stouts. I miss being closer to Michigan.

JW, just remind them of the beer selection out West and that'll soon shut them up

GOOD POINT! Most of the guys here would weep if they saw the stock list at my local private store.

If it helps I won't be drinking much LOL.

The Duggan #9 are dangerously drinkable though... They must limit them to 4-packs for this reason! Packed with fresh flavor, love the complex malt layers under those nice hops.

Harviestoun Ola Dubh 12.

My heart is warm and I am relaxed.

Had a bottle of Coney Island Albino Python earlier. It's an unfiltered pale lager with witbier spices and a surprisingly pungent addition of ginger. Pretty delicious stuff, though I could understand the ginger putting some people off.
