The Wife saw a picture on the Bell's FB page of them bottling Hopslam.

Tonight's going to be another round of the Vertical Epics for us.

Not sure if I fit in here, but I've been drinking Harp Lager exclusively lately.

Normally a Miller lite guy. I know. I'm a bad person.

You are right it doesn't fit. GTFO!!! Just kidding. Harp is a decent English Lager. It's something with flavor compared to Miller Lite. Definitely a good start.

I wish I liked lagers more. I should try to.

Have you tried Magic Hat Winter Lager? A bit more of a bite.

Truthfully I'm not sure. I've had some of their stuff, can't recall that one though. I'll have to grab a single bottle of that and try it. Thanks for the suggestion. If I have a lager it's usually a Victory Prima Pils. Love that one.

As Judge Mills Lane would say "I'll allow it". I've had them both and would again over the American Lagers. Gotta try new stuff, even though it might cost you a little more. It's worth for the Flavor.

My girlfriend is working more which means we're going out less so I have more money for beer. When she goes back to a regular schedule, my stingy ass will go back to domestic.

That should send out the COA Signal.

Currently having a Stone 13th Anny. It got accidentally cellared. The label says Enjoy in 2009. Better late than never. Actually I did have one fresh years ago.

lol to each their own. glad you liked it Justin.

How'd it turn out cellared? Had an Ommegang Dubbel (Shared) and Split a St. Bernadus (sp?) Xmas ale. All good.

Different. Lots of the hops were gone except for the bittering hops. Palatable. Was great in 2009 when I had it. It's more 'Barley Winish' with some brown sugar notes.

I see that Founders KBS is to be released in April. When is CBS released and how hard are they to get?
