    I'll have to look at the bottle when I go back in tomorrow, but I've seen Oktoberfest bottles on shelves as early as July 4th before...

    Agreed. Season creep is ridiculous these days. It's why I don't brew a pumpkin ale anymore at the brewery. No one buys pumpkin beers after September anymore because the bigger guys brew them with canned pumpkin, or just spices, in early July. I'll only make one with real pumpkin that was freshly harvested, so it comes out too late. I hate this nonsense.

    Not a sell out if they've alway been owned by millercoors. At least the way I heard it.

    I like their beer. Like anything else I'll buy it if I can't find what I'm looking for...

    As far as i know it was owned by a group of skateboarders which is what sparked my interest. Then they sold. But it really doesnt matter to me lol i went brewery hopping in san diego and hit ballast point and saint archer and posted about it and some dude had a cow lol

    Ballast point is the major sellout.

    Awhile ago I went to their original tap room and had a really good time/vibe.

    They sold.

    Tried one of their new taprooms in Temecula and had a terrible time/vibe.

    Can't get myself to try their beer again...

    I'm sure it taste the same but can't get past it for some reason.

    Mighta been me. I don't give a shit what you drink though, but I personally don't/won't support them anymore. Especially when there's such better options available. But that's just my opinion. You drink whatever makes you happy :cheers:

    Nah i dont think it was you, it was some dude that signed up only to post in this thread lol. And i respect your opinion. And trust me i know there are tons of better options. There are literally like 10 micro breweries in my area that have better ipas. But most of them dont bottle their beers and i dont like having growlers sit around very long.

    Got a whole foods near by? The one's I've been to typically always have a good selection of craft beers. Some have a ridiculously good selection, others are ehh, but still have some gems now and then. I feel ya with growlers though, they're really only good for 24 hours after you crack the seal.
