Aside from the Trafalgar, the only less-than-exciting things here are the Springbock, which will be nice as ever I'm sure, and the Orange Peel, which just isn't my thing. Everything else looks awesome! Tree and Nobel and Skalfti and Carolous and Panil in one release? I might need a line of credit.....
i thought the same. reminds me of the same move muskoka made a couple releases ago. nice.Cale wrote:Definitely happy with this release. Surprised to see the Spring Bock coming in a 720ml bottle!
i love how this coincides with today's Oscar nominations, since for beer geeks this is more or less the equivalent

These are the ones I'll be getting a bunch of. Congrats to BT's Mr. Hyde for seeing his springbock recipe adapted by Amsterdam and released at the LC! Too bad you're not here to see it yourself! 720ml is a weird size though... some sort of special packaging?GregClow wrote:211284 / Gouden Carolus Hopsinjoor / HET ANKER NV / 8.0 / 330 / $3.05
