From everything I have had and heard, CC makes some great beers. That style sounds like one I would like.

They do ...

Most of the beers are Going For It ... some I like, some I hate ... very few are just so-so ...

Florida Cracker, and this one, I don't enjoy ... right now.

You should buy shares in DFH. Whenever I read a beer post of yours there's a DFH

Mind you, if we could get them at your prices I'd be right there with you. The 90 is the bomb, love that beer.

Well I live not far from where it is made so yeah

Nice to have it as the local, that's awesome.

The brewery is about a mile from my workplace.

meh.

TNKS · May 18, 2015

My thoughts werent even that high .... LOL!!
Left Hand isnt bringing competitive beers to market,they wont last at their current rate
Dragging a bunch of local ass kissers doesnt support solid brewing

grantmichaels · May 18, 2015

Warming up isn't doing it any favors, either ...

The taste isn't as offensive as the nose is ...

Once it's up there - GULP, CHUG, GULP ...

One of my local breweries releases this in May, and it goes fast. I was lucky to pick some up this year.

Hopnoxious Imperial IPA. 9% ABV and 170 IBU !

Bumper · May 18, 2015

This is right up my alley. Love a good IIPA. They say you can't taste any IBU's over 100, but who cares, the more the merrier (unless you are GM of course)

grantmichaels · May 18, 2015

They say you can't get more than fifty IBU into a brew that's still hot, no matter how much you add ... and that you have to hop-after flame-out to get increases beyond that ... and then it decreases over time too, in bottle, I guess ...

So ... I find it kind of humorous that people would list it ... because a) the measurement is not based on sound science to begin with, b) the amount they put in doesn't really mean it's there when you get it ...

This dude's studied the crap out of it, I guess: http://www.monmouthcollege.edu/academics/faculty.aspx?id=0405052
