Been wanting to try that one. Heard good things.

Was finally able to track down a Dayman while on my lunch break today. Debating on what to drink tonight.

Hopefully the growlers were filled correctly, have a nice seal and are refrigerated.

Repping this. Arguably my favorite DIPA. VERY creamy and rich for anything of the IPA variety if memory serves.

I also believe it packs quite a kick with an alc/vol over 10%.

I know someone was talking about Summer Shandy on here a few pages back. Well when I was at the store tonight they had a leinenkugel sampler that had the raspberry shandy (horrible beer) summer shandy (alright for a summer day) and a new orange shandy. I almost picked it up so I could try the orange shandy but went with the alchemy hour instead since the bar I go to just ran out of it on tap.

I brought it up! You are welcome! :)

Back to my manliness of beer consumption...I found another decent tasting brew.

Like...original leines, or one of their "specialty" brews? Bc as far as I know, you can only get their original in WI and MN (and if you look reeeally hard, in IL)

Probably their specialty beers, then. Summer Shandy and some other stuff.
