Nice! Cascade's are expensive so I only ever get them on draft or if someone wants to throw down on a bottle with me. But they're possibly my favorite sours that I can get with regularity.

 

Cascade is definitely too pricey for my blood for bottles, but every time I have been to Portland I spend a fair amount of time at the brewery haha

 

A 750 of Tilquin is cheaper than Cascade and better.

 

We don't get Tilquin up here so it's not better :)

Edit: Well, we get a very small amount. I had their Gueuze and it was pretty solid.

 

pretty sure I haven't seen/heard of them before now

 

Shit sits on shelves here. It's good.

 

Jealous. I find that I'm super critical of sours because they're super trendy (which isn't bad) but sour breweries always have so much hype that my natural reaction is to push back on it.

 

So that Cantillon framboise was pretty incredible. It somehow got better and better the more I drank of it. It may be my favorite beer I've ever tasted. Everything about it was so incredibly balanced.

 

Cantillon is always outstanding. There's a reason they have the reputation they do.

As for the Cascade folks, read up on their process and that price gets to be more understandable (though yeah, totally understand being a once in a while thing). Their Cherry Bourbonic Plague is one the best beers I've ever had.

 

I joined The Bruery's Reserve Society today, prettty stoked for it wahoooooo

 

When I was in Denver, I went to a bar that had like 50 beers on tap. I tried a Paulaner hefeweizen (Germany) and a Duvel (Beligum). Both were delicious. The Paulaner made me feel like some Inglourious Basterds tension was brewing behind me.

 

Duvel is a beer I don't should buy more of.

 

Natty chillin

 

Brother brought back some fresh Jai Alai from his vacation in Florida. This stuff is so good.

 

I love everything Paulaner does. Drank a lot of it traveling Germany a few years ago. Their Helles is crazy drinkable.

 

Buddy is gonna be in Jupiter, FL on Saturday and is stopping by the Civil Society can release. So pumped for it.

 

These commercials are ridiculous. WAR ON CRAFT BEER

 

Eh. They don't bother me and I don't think they're that bad, tbh.

 

I was lucky enough to grab a 4-pack of Oh-J at Lone Pine Brewing this weekend. It is a very great take on the New England style double IPA and lived up to the name (Juicy!).

 

I’m officially into Sours & Saison’s after this summer. not even sure if i can go back to my brown or wheat ales.

 

welcome to the dark err, light side

 

One of us. One of us.

 

This is pretty interesting, never seen anything like it. Mission Brewing in San Diego is offering consumers an opportunity to directly invest in the future

Huh, that is interesting. I just saved those PDF's though so I can look through them later.

Edit: It's kind of the brewdog model, searching for crowd sourced investors.

 

Too bad it m not a fan of them
