yeah that is crazy eh?

It came in about a month ago. I asked my amigo to check on it and he snatched a sixer right away.

He also said it isn't sold out yet which surprised me.

Leesburg is where he lives.

The Firestone Walker and Duvel Moortgat families have combined forces to broaden their capacity and scope as brewers," said Walker and Firestone said in a joint statement. "Long admirers of each other's beers, culture and breweries, the two teams saw the perfect fit for an alliance. The partnership will allow Firestone Walker to develop our capacity across the US in a conservative and thoughtful way by consummating a life long tie with this family-owned international craft brewer, who continue their commitment to participating in the American Craft Revolution."

So tonight I tried both of my new craft beers I got yesterday:

Grapefruit Sculpin - Tasty brew but had a pretty bitter aftertaste. Starting to think this may just be what ipa's taste like and don't really like them. Other than that it was good.

Breakfast Stout - Wayyyy too sweet for me. It felt like I was drinking chocolate coffee. But I was really amazed how much flavor it packed into it. If you're into those flavors it probably is a real treat.

Overall both were good but i'll be on the lookout for some new ones to try.

Like I said though, i've only ever had the usual water downed beer that is commonplace everywhere, so it was exciting to try new stuff.

Friend brought me up a Yeast Wrangler from SC and it's pretty darn tasty. Holy City Brewing in Charleston.
