Introducing Light Mode! If you would like a Bar Towel social experience that isn't the traditional blue, you can now select Light Mode. Go to the User Control Panel and then Board Preferences, and select "Day Drinking" (Light Mode) from the My Board Style drop-down menu. You can always switch back to "Night Drinking" (Dark Mode). Enjoy!
Drinking it right now. Oddly similar to Lug Tread, bit sweeter, bit maltier. Not terrible, but I'm glad I only opted for one bottle.
Also, Boreale IPA. I was gonna give it a go at $9.99 a 6pk, but $8.49...? I'll be going back for more.
And does anyone know what Dunham Leo's Early Breakfast IPA's status is? Had it on tap a few weeks ago and loved it, but couldn't find any bottles today.

It's a new recipe so it's quite different, found it a little sweet, but there was a nice bitterness to it, I still enjoyed it. Harold wasn't sure/forgot what hops were used this time around, and also mentioned it had a higher abv.
The cask only had a few pints left in it when I left, not sure when it will be back in that form, or on tap.

Worth ordering a case from Keep6?
I enjoyed it but not as much as Peche - I found the flavour a tad on the sweet side.
Same here. I am a huge DDC fan and Grand Noirceur seemed one-dimensional - did not wow me like my favorite 'would drink any day' Imperial Stouts - Bieropholie, Nøgne Ø, Stone & Stone 12th anniv, Victory, Southern Tier Oat & MoKah, Founders, Bellwoods.
