Picked up some beer at Total Wine tonight. We just got a big shipment of Modern Times so I picked up a couple of those and some locals I've never tried before. Excited to try some new beer tonight.

 

Got duped with the Unfiltered Sculpin from Ballast Point. Couple extra bucks for the same taste. DAMN you!!!!

 

Cracked 2015 BCBS to celebrate post grad employment. So glad I let this mellow out a bit.

 

Bought the latest Sam Adams sampler, came with this beauty...



I'm a sucker for camera's, and beer, so this was a pleasant surprise. Reminds me of New Belgium's Snapshot beer, another great camera beer.

 

My friend went and saw Ghost in Indiana last night, and he was super awesome enough to grab me some Three Floyds while he was down there. I'll be getting Zombie Dust, Alpha King, and Gumball Head when I see him tomorrow. Have never tried any of them. Super excited.

 

All are real solid beers, for sure.

 

new tree house opened up yesterday. pictures on twitter looked gorgeous.

 

hope that makes tree house easier to trade for (though, it's gotten a bit easier now lately).

 

I've been on a beer diet for the better part of the summer in an attempt to lose some weight, but my wife is away for the weekend and I'm home with two kids so I figured this was the perfect time to not worry about it. Working on an Oberon mini-keg with my buddy tonight while watching Game of Thrones and the Frank Turner documentary, and also hitting up a few randoms I picked up as well. Beer is delicious and I have missed it.

 

New Treehouse facility looks beautiful. Hope to make it out there one day. Also hope to finally try a beer from them.

 

BevMo was running a deal this weekend. $9.99 for a 6 pack of Sculpin. Never seen it priced that low even as a Costco sampler pack.

 

How fresh? That's basically 50% off of what it costs in Michigan.

 

Have't checked but it wasn't limited to the store (as in pushing out stock). It was an emailed coupon "for me only" probably just people who have a history of buying pricey IPAs. I usually can get the 6 pack alone for $13.99 and around $11 when I get the Sculpin pack at Costco. The costco pack has regular, grapefruit and pineapple; 6 of each.

 

Wish Sculpin was that cheap here. It's around $16.99. Or it used to be. I quit looking at the price of it because it was just too much; one of the few beers I've said that about.

 

Same. I picked up Grapefruit Sculpin not too long ago for $11.99 or $12.99 on sale, but it consistently is at $13.99 or higher at small stores in the area. Which is pretty nuts.

 

birthday bomb by prairie is the best new beer I've tried in a loooong time.

 

Been drinking the Unfiltered Sculpin a lot lately. My body hates me but it's soooo gooooood.

 

Hey, both Alvarados growers pale ale and chiffon fog double IPA are available in cans. Let me know if either of those interest you and if so we can organize a trade!

 

Yeah, I'm super interested, but I can't organize a trade for a month or so. Work is crazy and I won't have time to go and get some good things for you until like early September.

 

Never had Treehouse before but stopped by the new place today, grabbed Haze, Julius and Sap, have yet to try

 

Very jealous. Have heard nothing but amazing things about them all.

 

You will not be disappointed.

 

Went to Mikerphone tonight and the brews were dank. Haven't had a ton of NEIPAS but it reminded me a lot of Trillium

 

Anyone else in the midwest area digging these limited edition Great Lakes Brewing Company can releases? Between the Blonde Ale, the Red Ale and the Turntable pils, it's all I've been drinking this summer.

 

If anyone wants to send me Treehouse beers for cold hard cash hit me up
