KBS should be released in MI only for March and then it should be around here in April, seems later than usual.

Any good beer releases coming?

Not sure what is coming up. I have been going to local breweries recently and getting it fresh. Aslin is releasing stuff every week and RaR every month. Ocelot has been awesome also. RaR has 3 releasing on Dank Day and you can pre order and pick up Sunday. There is a fee but it is mostly tax and the beer is worth it.https://rar-brewing.ticketleap.com/d...2017_at_0100PM

I bought my mixed case when it went on sale this evening. I'm hitting up Burley and RAR that day. Luckily I'll be at my folks house in Rehoboth, so I'll hit up Burley early so I can grab cans and head to Cambridge to pick up RAR and back to Ocean City for the OC St Patty Day Parade after parties.

A buddy of mine grabbed me two 4 packs of RAR Edward Hyde from DTC last weekend and looking forward to trying those. I've also got a crowler of Burley's Lost in the Haze. Both of those will be tasty this weekend.

A few new breweries have popped up in Frederick. Attaboy Beer and Rockwell Brewery. Attaboy's grand opening was tonight and they had a NE Style IPA called Galaxy Maid. A friend of mine thoroughly enjoyed it. Rockwell's opening is tomorrow.

New place finally opened in Williamsport MD (81 near the MD/VA border) called Cushwa Brewing. I had a few of their beers last May at the Craft Beer Fest and they were on point. Looking forward to heading there to grab some crowlers.

You guys are lucky to be able to make day trips out of it. My weekends are target, some chain restaurant for lunch, grocery store, some family function, clean house. Every single weekend. I cant make the eastern shore stuff but maybe the local-er stuff.

Ocelot - how deep is it into NoVA? Is it 15 mins in from the MD state line/American Legion bridge?

peak - ive stayed away from their stuff for no apparent reason but saw a fresh 4 pack of their Juice and got it.

O'connor - seeing their selection on shevles, out of Norfolk. Any word?

Holy shit, I was just at magruders today but have overlooked their very small growler station. I didnt even think it was up and running yet.

I was just talking to main guy there and mentioned id love some singlecut but cant swing the price hoping hed offer me a discount but he didnt.

2015 BCBS? 64 oz of singlecut for $20?!? Sump, i couldnt afford but can do $17 for 32 oz.

I want a 64oz pour of that entire lineup.

I also overheard him trying to talk down a distributor on the case price of 21st Amend blah blah blah down from $32/case.

For me its not a day trip. I go get the beer and leave. The last release i stayed for about a hour and had a beer though. The trip for me out of anne arundel is about a hour and 15. Ocelot is about a hour and DTC where I got Edward Hyde is 45-50.

Some folks love O'Conner, not much of a fan.

[BDBohnzie]

otm - Ocelot is out near Dulles Airport. So a bit further than 15 mins from the Legion Bridge. Caboose in Vienna does some decent stuff and is within that timeframe.

That's the one Peak beer (Juice) that I haven't tried yet. Supposed to be a good beer.

Never heard of O'Conner but would try stuff at least once.

I hear ya on weekends though. I get some down time maybe once a month, but I usually have to hustle to make things work out. Add the beer run into other errands. I have a standing beer share once a month based around WWE PPVs. My trip next weekend is in line with my birthday, so that's where the leeway comes in. Which is gonna take me 3 days to recover from. Damn getting old.

I hope the 2015 BCBS fill I got isnt bad. I know the 1 bottle of 2016 I got this year tasted much better than the 6 or so bottles of 2015 I had last year.

I didnt read anything about 2015 kegs being bad, just bottle production.

Guess Ill find out tonight.

Fresh Squeezed is a good one. I haven't had it in a while but that one is usually solid. Pinedrops was another good one by them. My problem is they are a left coast style IPA and I tend to want East Coast and/or NE IPAs.

yeah, this is the one I want to try.

I got burned on that 2015 keg of BCBS. Def a bad batch. I should have known and not taken the chance but I thought it was just bottles.

But fuck Magruders as well. They put "no sampling" on it so you couldnt try it and see. One sip let you know it was bad. They had to know it was bad or the guy purposely didnt try it before selling it. Their beer guy knows beer and he knows what he is doing.

Monument City is back with cans of 51 rye w dob stamps. Tasted real good this weekend. Nice easy drinking rye beer.

Im out 27.99.

I really enjoy a place near me called the 'Frisco Ale-House'. So fun and the fact they need large screen TVs to simply list all the beers they have on tap makes it a great place to go. Little pricey, but great fun for a couple beers and tasty apps.

Welcome to the board! You near the one in Crofton or Columbia?

Brought home a combined 2 cases from RAR and Burley this past weekend. Got 8 of each Chopdank, Hyde w/ Galaxy, Pineapple Grenade from RAR. Pineapple Grenade is so good (I had a pour at the brewery). Then got 12 Savage AF, 8 Fruits of our Labor Boysenberry, 3 Fruits of Our Labor Gooseberry, and 1 Coogi Sweater. Got to try others at Burley and RAR. Overall a very eventful weekend.
