    Agreed. Structure and socialization does amazing things for a kid.

    Mocha Merlin. Only had 40 mins in the fridge so it's warm. But really good. The coffee notes come out great at this temp. Great night cap.

    Was very tasty. Not sure about the blonde ale designation, was more session IPA to me.
    I liked it. I would drink it again. Wanted a little more "sweetness" in it.

    Had similar thoughts. Went into it thinking it was going to be more of a blue moon type since the content is low and it was considered a blonde ale but had a hoppy taste of an ipa

    Got a good stash at my favorite packy today. :anonymous:

    Jack's Abby - Framinghammer - Baltic Porter
    OB - Ten Fidy
    Rouge - Fresh Roast
    Brewmaster Jack - Fogbuster porter
    Firestone Walker - Mocha Merlin

    Think that is all. o_O

    Was told that the OB barrel brews would be out very soon.

    Sounds good. Haven’t bought any new ones lately since the wife was about to stab me for spending so much at treehouse last week haha

    @Dgibson529 If you can get the Framinghammer, go for it. It is pretty good.
    Kind of a molasses after taste going on. Had one outside. Really good.
    I am onto a Rouge right now. Good, but I do like the Framinghammer better.
    Looked for the Two Roads. Did not find it. :(

    Next time we meet up I’ll have to swing by and snag a variety pack of two roads for you. I’ll see if they got that framing hammer too next week
