Yeah, it might be a problem in hindsight -- this past week I tried to drink some merely "good" IPAs -- Two Hearted, Sculpin, and a couple of good local super-fresh growlers (Marty McRye and Western Sunrise from Four Fathers) -- after starting off with Trillium and they tasted completely meh in comparison. I'm actually kind of hoping my palate goes back to normal -- I have access to a TON of good hoppy beer here right outside of Chicago and it will really suck if most of them stay kind of blah for me.
LOL -- I'll be grabbing some Navaja for sure. And Pipeworks stuff, and Surly, and FFF, etc. They're all damn good. But Trillium is better.
Yeah, I've never had that particular beer, but agree 100% that adjuncts belong in a supporting role. When they take over completely: :X
I had Hailstorm Stratus and it was very tasty. Can't wait for Navaja to hit, love that beer. Might be my favorite HA beer.
Agreed on Navaja -- it's outstanding. It's not a huge PITA to hop over to Open Bottle to grab my HA and Pipeworks stuff, but it would he so much easier if they distro'ed to NWI. Difference between running to the store over lunch during the week vs a several hour dedicated trip from Valpo on the weekend when I'm already slammed with travel volleyball for the kids and house / yard work. I know, 1st world problems LOL.
i like hi li ipa from tampa that stuff is good medicine bromigo take that to the i probably did not spell that right bank bromigos
Last week I had a coconut IPA from Finback & J Wakefield , it was actually a pretty good diversion
hey bromigo i like the imperial ipa but honest i cleaned our garage and my lady bought me some beer the best beer of all is one you did not pay for life is good bromigo take that to teh bank
Yeah, I thought this too. Then I walked into a store that had a #### ton of Pseudo Sue and well....will hit up the NG tomorrow or during the week while fishing. Until then, TG it is.
That's awesome! Sue is fantastic. We head up to the Dells for a long weekend in the water parks a few times a year and I always look for TG but rarely find much outside of on tap. Granted, I'm not really hunting.
Especially at 8.99 per 4-pack. I pretty much stopped looking for anything else, except they had a couple of Alpine Nelson's that I grabbed. They are older but I don't care. I am in serious Nelson withdrawal....Coeur de Lion said:

Yup, but it is what it is. Im gonna go at the end of August instead, in my own vehicle, and Ill be able to stay about 30 hours instead of 10...I wouldnt have had much time tonight other than a quick bite and concert, then up early tomorrow. Next month Ill be able to hit NOLA Brewing and have some of Tipsy's BBQ, as well as the quarter for some drinks, oysters, etc. and can take my time and enjoy the visit more.
I'll be there the last weekend of August
I'm not sure the exact date I'll be there yet, depends on when my work meeting in Bama is...I usually find out a week or so before..if we're in NO at the same time, beers are a must!
Ken Schramm is the godfather of mead. He literally wrote the book on it. Signature isn't one of the rares like Heart of Darkness or Black Agnes, but it's good. Mead isn't really my thing though. I am have no idea how available it is outside of Michigan.
