karl strauss tower 20 double IPA is actually very tasty

Surprised there's been no discussion of this so far....

This fudge was gone from every shelf literally in a couple hours when it was released here in RVA. My local bottle shop was nice enough to save me a four-pack. If you haven't had it and can get your hands on some, I highly recommend it. One of my all-time favorite beers in any style.

I got my code by mailing in an index card but putting 280xxxx, the Xs being random numbers work too. You just have to try a bunch of times. It's worth a shot and it's free. This one worked for me just now and it's available. 2806594

It's one per person so multiple chalices for each household should fly.

The engraving is limited to three 15 character lines. I guess you guys will put something like "drymount this beer" or something similar.

Mine showed up today so be on the look out

Mine came yesterday, but I was out showing family around town, so I couldn't pick it up. Pretty excited to drink out of it tonight.

I hear The Lost Abbey red Poppy Ale is back in. A damn fine beer In the past, I hear this year, not so much), just a bit much to get shipped to TX. Goes anywhere from $17 - $22 (375ml) plus shipping. Sure wish the local store could have this in stock.

KBS is top notch....

I'm enjoying a Heady Topper right now. Friend of mine drove it from the cannery to NYC for me today, my favorite NE IPA. Only NN and HT compare to the real heady IPA's from out west IMO

sidewaysscott · Wed Apr 04, 2012 11:29 pm

ohh, heady topper. I keep watching ebay sales on these cans, but have yet to pull the trigger. Def on my list though.

Got mine, and instantly filled it up with Pyramid Curveball. (It is Opening Night in baseball after all.) Catching up on Awake makes the night complete.
