Yeah, I had Omar's OPA and it was garbage. Hop Broth(el) was a pleasant surprise for sure.

Re: Let's talk good beer
What is everyone sipping on this beautiful Friday? Got some Diamondback Hop Broth and Green Machine today and still have some RAR cans from 2 weeks ago.

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?

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.

Re: Let's talk good beer
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. Beer Brewery ABV% Price (64oz) Price (32oz) Nanticoke Nectar RAR, MD 7.4 $12.99 $7.49 Double Duckpin IPA Union, MD 8.5 $14.99 $8.49 Billy Full Stack IIPA SingleCut, NY 8.2 $19.99 $11.99 Dale's Pale Ale Oskar Blues, CO 6.5 $10.99 $6.49 Sump Coffee Stout Perennial, MO 10 $29.99 $16.99 2015 Bourbon County Stout Goose Island, IL 10 $52.99 $27.99 https://www.magrudersofdc.com/growlers 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.

Re: Let's talk good beer
Some folks love O'Conner, not much of a fan.

Re: Let's talk good beer
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.

Re: Let's talk good beer
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.

So Deschutes Brewery started making appearances in the area bout a month ago. Gotta say a little disappointed. This stuff was well hyped....the one above I put as semi solid

Re: Let's talk good beer
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.

Re: Let's talk good beer
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.
