No picture, unfortunately, but a Founder's Mango Habanero. Yum, quite good... It's also a limited edition supposedly, but I've seen it all over for the past few months.

Also enjoying the Atomic Pumpkin as well. Spicy, so good...

I gotta go look this up at Total Wine.. hopefully, they have it !

Just be careful. That and Atomic Pumpkin have apparently started an ulcer and acid reflux. I guess I shouldn't be surprised as I tended to quaff them a bit before dinner and apparently didn't get enough food quick enough to dilute the little rascals and their juices. *OUCH*

But good luck. I think it's gone by now.

I was quite happy when Bells came back to distribution in Virginia

Yeah, they 'went corporate', and were bought out late last year. I'm sure they are either now, or soon will be brewing in other locations. It's sad to see them and Stone go corporate, but I'm sure it's self preservation. Bells was a family owned brewery and seeing it go that way is sad, but so many breweries have failed in the past 3 or 4 years. Seeing them die would be worse. Like Magic Hat is gone now from what I can find out. I liked their #9. *sigh*

And now more people can experience Oberon, Hop Slam, and their other tasty concoctions.

Taken on a hot day at the beach. Doesn't matter what the beer is when you got a view like this! It was just a tap beer so don't actually remember the brand. Actually, many things I don't remember about that day...

ooooo howzit? There's a pumpkin porter made by Old Ox Brewery here in VA that I really like, but I havent tried too many other pumpkin stouts/porters.

Dark malty roast with the pumpkin on the backend - I like it and will buy more! 🍻

It is indeed, my friend. Today I will probably have the "standard" version, not aged in Kentucky bourbon barrels

There's a brewery around here that does a whole line (almost everything they brew) of bourbon barrel aged stuff, and I've gotten rather tired of it. (Plus my wife thinks I love their stuff and keeps buying it for me) mean it's not 'bad', but it's all the same bitter stuff. I have had some other brewers interpretations of that type of brewing and it's good to sample around. I am lookig forward to getting a Stone Arrogant Bastard 'Char' though. Sounds great. AB is rather obnoxious on its own, so I can only wonder what that would taste like. *shrug* I guess I need to save the bourbon barrel stuff for later in the year/early next.

It was great when it started, for sure...

Yeah, theres some breweries that get it right, and others that just make them too boozy.
