That would be my favorite series. The taste and the history .

I have not had one I do not like EXCEPT the one with the drunk elephant on it. Christ that was not up my alley.

This reminds me I need to dig out one of the Unidragons I have been aging to see how it is doing.

Had this one the other night. It was good but really strong. It's not a beer you drink fast.

I'm a big Clown Shoes fan...Aurora Orangealis is one of my top 5 favorite IPA's

Lol that one has a great label. That is one of my favorite parts about their beers.

Yeah one of the main reasons I got it. But it is definitely a sipping beer. Really stout head on it.

Apparently that was a limited edition brew from September 2016...I can't find it anywhere!

Those veggies look good. Im waiting for some Thai food to be delivered drinking a Guave Good from Oak Highlands.

Distributors typically loath craft brewery's so I don't doubt they try to sabotage them. Microbrews literally have been killing their market share for the past 2 decades and it's only getting worse for them.

When Rich and I along with a group of guys took the Yuengling brewery tour the tour guide was apt to point out the special "off limits" room that held the gubments measurement system for taxation. It was one of the first valves from the brewery. Basically the gubment got tax $$ for all the brew regardless of if it got spilled/poured out/deemed defective/etc. Basically the gubment was sure to get their tax measurements before the process was actually done to insure they got their tax money.
