Was hanging out with assistant brewmaster of Sierra Nevada for a couple of hours tonight and had no idea. Very cool guy. Apparently I was at an event for beer industry professionals but I didn't know for most of the time I was there. Drank a lot of Hill Farmstead Amarillo with him while talking beer :o

Rapture was in c & c 750 ml bottles. $18+ after tax. 300 cases total. My guess is that most were sold yesterday. If you are going to pick some up definitely call first and see if they'll hold one for you

Haha, can't rep you right now, but I appreciate your newfound beer nerdness.

had four. the swagged out stout was good. also tried a smoke lager from Trois Mosquitieres, which was overwhelming. definitely couldn't drink 750 ml between two of us.

had an Oude Deuze too. Crazy good. Should've probably drank l;ess before the tap takeover thing. hindsight, 20/20 etc

^ y u no go on weekend so i can come

Next time for sure, i'm going to Healdsburg this morning for (wine) harvest. Staying till tuesday and hitting RR on the way back down.

for those in sixpoint's distribution range, do yourself a favor and grab a pack of autumnation. probably one of the best balanced oktoberfest beers i've tasted. low hints of spice and pumpkin, but not in your face flavor. medium hoppiness but still a mildly hearty beer.

Oktoberfest (marzen) beers should have no pumpkin or spices, it's a bready strong lager. All that stuff is against the reinheitsgebot.

My bad, i guess it's just a seasonal fall beer. Either way, shit is delicious.

Going to a Darkness vertical tasting tonight, woop woop. Also about to pick up a 4pk of fresh Ghandi Bot that mpcec sent me. Thanks man :D

Posted

Nah, unfortunately no 07, I wish. I'm taking a Jester King Black Metal as well, assuming a few other bottles will be there. I'll throw up a pic of the lineup later.

Posted

Well, a couple of guys couldn't come to the Darkness vertical tasting and the host really wanted them to be there, so we pushed it back to a later date. We drank a random assortment of bottles instead including a Veritas 008, which was much better than I expected from the reputation.

edit: Also, Bells Batch 7000 is really overrated. It has tons of A+ and A reviews recently but after Iron Fist Velvet Glove (this brewery has really surprised me) and Jester King Black Metal, I could barely get through the Batch 7000. It was way too syrupy and burnt at the same time.
