I really like their Sea Quench Ale. And I'm curious about the Flesh & Blood IPA, and the Lupu-Luau IPA.

Once upon a time 60-minute (& 90-minute, and maybe even 120-minute) were among the best in their style. Feels like 2 decades ago, even though it's been half of that.

they made some very good beers but there are few things i’m less interested in than national craft brands and the random shit they throw against the wall these days.

Ah, didn't click through to see it was a distro expansion, thought it was just a brewery still coasting on a 3-year old top 10 ranking.
Have you been to Barrel Theory yet? I've running about 50/50 on things I've loved/hated from them.

sadly no. I mostly hit Fair State, Dangerous Man, and Sociable Cider when I have the time/inclination for drinks these days. St Paul might as well be on another planet.

Bell’s Kalamazoo Stout is a good example of adding a subtle amount of hops but preserving the things people like in a style.

I live an hour from Bells and Two Hearted is probably the standard beer, in that I could walk into any bar or sports venue within a couple hundred miles and find it on tap, and the only time I ever order it is when I'm in a place that has like bud, bud light, coors, coors light, and two hearted on tap. Which is sad because it's good and I take it for granted.
― joygoat, Tuesday, 13 November 2018 04:35 (five years ago) link
Bent Paddle Harness rye-pa is like a rye synthesis of Two Hearted. I don't know the hops used but Centennial has to be in there. It's a seasonal I've truly looked forward to.

Was seeing BCBS all over the place for weeks last year, including some variants, let's see if 2018 is a repeat. It's a great beer but I don't need more of it.

I’ve had reg, coffee barleywine, midnight orange and bramble so far. Midnight orange is my favorite, but I love chocolate orange candy. Now it is in beer form. My allotment included everything but Reserve, not sure I’ll get to taste that anytime soon, quantities seem low.
― Jeff, Sunday, 25 November 2018 15:50 (five years ago) link
There are actually a couple of variants avalable here in Mpls, to my surprise. I went for wheatwine over the orange, there was a two bottle limit.

anyone else just kind of... lose their taste for beer? i still drink it but tbh only really light stuff like high life or pbr which i appreciate for how unobtrusive they are. partly it is a money issue, but that too, spending that much more money on craft beer just ultimately wasn't feeling worth it even though i really felt it was for about 15 years. when i spend money on alcohol now it's mostly cider, and there are some really good ones available now. i can't imagine wanting to order a beer over a good cider right now.

I've lost most of the taste for fruit/chocolate/adjunct-of-the-day beers, including coffee stouts, which I used to like. I've also developed a taste for lager styles over the stronger IPAs I used to like, but I'll still go for bourbon barrel aged beers, ambers, and lighter IPAs.
I bought two regular BCBS and one one of the Wheatwine variant today, don't know when I'll try them.
― nickn, Thursday, 29 November 2018 01:17 (five years ago) link
At Whole Foods, and they were sitting out with the other beer, so I guess the bloom is off the rose. The guy there did say the other ones went fast the first day. I wanted to try a Reserve.
