    Had a great time tonight at a weekly "bottle" share at a local craft beer bar.

    Had a guy that just got back from Massachusetts and brought back a good selection of Tree House. We ended up doing a Tree House blind tasting which was very cool. Was shocked at my result though. 99% of the time my favorite has been Bright w/ Citra but in this blind taste test I ranked Alter Ego #1.

    So dang good and juicy! :drool:

    Do it. I'm volunteering (free beer) at a local brewery to help with canning the beer in the morning.

    I'd quit my 9-5 to work own a brewery.

    I gave my coworker a bottle of Celebration to try, and he gave me this one to try.

    Let's do it!

    Juicy Julius sounds like a good beer name :D

    My dream is to own a brewery/distillery. I will make it happen one day mark my words.

    I cracked the Sierra Narwhal last night. I didn’t realize at the time, but the shop sold me a 2015 vintage single last week... Still tasted great! For a shelf stout (albeit one I’ve yet to actually see on a shelf), this was a really good one! I’ll definitely keep my eyes open for this in the future.

    Tonight’s beer was the Bell’s Black Note... This is a really good BBA stout! I only had 1, but I saw the local growler shop has a few 4 packs that I’ll be picking up tomorrow! I’ve got 1 KBS from last year stashed away and would love to do a blind taste test with it and the Black Note.
