Just got a beer by Goose Island, Fleur - Belgian Style Ale. It was bottled over a year ago, so it should be good  I have no idea how to review beer, but I'll give it a shot if I remember to post later! edit: Also, if anyone is looking for Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA, the beer distributor in Portchester, NY has a few on their shelf.

Finally got around to ordering some beers from Blackwell's last week. They arrive today, I got the following: 3x Pliney The Elder 1x Dogfish Hellhound 2x Random IPAs (told them to surprise me) VERY excited to finally try Pliney The Elder as I've never had one before and have only heard amazing things. Hellhound is DELICIOUS. We have it on tap currently at the local World of Beer bar. Quite scrumptious.

bartolimu posted:Pliny is a good IPA, no doubt about it. A lot of people in this thread (me included) think RR's other IPA, Blind Pig, is better. Pliny just gets more hype because of its younger brother. Still, it's something every beer lover should try just to say they have. (Also insert "by the time it ships to you it'll be a week in the bottle, too old" joke here) I'll definitely keep Blind Pig in mind for the next time I order internet beers!

Has anyone tried the Habanero Sculpin IPA? Killing to get a few bottles, but am having no luck sourcing it in CT.

Thanks for the feedback guys! Time to try and locate some for myself to test out and learn it is too spicy.

HatfulOfHollow posted:Habanero Sculpin is awesome. I just finished a case of it and there was definite heat variation between bottles, ranging from tongue tickling to face melting. The last bottle we drank was split between 4 people and it was so hot that it made our eyes water. And even that was still an enjoyable experience. It's a great beer and the heat is a nice touch... if you can handle it. I'm a big fan of spice. Since it appears I can only order a 24 case off their site, is it worth it? Also, this combination of Thai or Indian with a spicy beer, sounds like it will not bode well for by b-hole. FYAD SECRETARY posted:While I haven't had Habanero Sculpin, but I did recently get a 6 pack of Grapefruit Sculpin for the first time and it's great. The grapefruit is really present in the aroma, and the taste isn't too pithy or anything. The only other grapefruit ipa I had was Stone's Grapefruit Slam and that was quite bitter and pithy, but that's probably because that one was made with peels. Also REALLY want to try this, awesome to hear it is delicious!

HatfulOfHollow posted:Speaking of Sculpin and the awesome people at Ballast Point, I sent them a note about the broken bottle I had a few days ago and they got right back to me. They wanted to ship me new beer but due to crazy PA laws that isn't possible. They did send me a sweet bag o' crap though. Very cool of them.

I love Ballast Point, but never had the habanero so I felt obliged to order it.

I got a bottle of Paradox Brewing's "Salty Lemon"...not sure how common/uncommon it is, but I'd never seen it before and I love lemons so I gave it a shot. FANTASTIC beer, I'd highly recommend it.

I need to try and find more of their stuff, although being in CT won't make that an easy task unfortunately. I really enjoyed the light sourness with the lemon flavor, they complimented each other nicely rather than just being wildly sour.graybook posted:I had that a couple of weeks ago, but I felt it was a tame option compared to other stuff of theirs I could've gotten. Would you recommend anything else of theirs? This is the first, and only, beer of theirs that I've ever had. If that changes I'll be sure to report my findings!

I got super lucky when I stopped by the store last night. Wow, didn't expect such a haul.
