UFO Big Squeeze is out. Tried it for the first time and I really liked it

It's a pilsner w/ seemingly fresh grapefruit juice. a legit 50/50 shandy.

so how similar is it to Stiegl Radler? I've tried a bunch of them and they aren't quite my cup of tea.

I only buy bomber if it's a special beer that I can't get any other way. I'd rather drink 12oz if something than have to finish 22oz of it because I opened it.

What do you do with the other 3 or 5 12oz bottles if you don't like it?

Could be on to something 750ml is a pretty standard liquor bottle size so maybe it is taxed differently

I wouldn't put it past a state to have some crazy rule like this, but generally speaking beer, wine and spirits are taxed on the production end, not the packaging end.

I picked up a 6 pack of Evolution Brewing Seacrets Tropicale. I got it due to the description of brewed "with honey and hibiscus." It's a really good summer beer. Highly recommend for any fellow Marylanders out there.

Had some Stone Go-To IPA tonight. I can't quite pin down which hop has been plaguing IPA's this year with that garlic/onion powder aroma, but this beer has a ton of it. Also it is very thin and watery, even for a session beer.

Yeah when I saw it was the "Go To" IPA I assumed it was directed towards people who want to pretend to enjoy IPA without all the IPA punch

Usually I enjoy a hoppy pale ale more than a session IPA. However Founders All Day IPA was impressive.

Founder's everything is impressive. Except for that cherry beer they tried to brew once upon a time. That shit was atrocious.

There is a small(ish) brewery in the Seattle area called Two Beers that makes an excellent ISA. Best part about Two Beers is that if I drink all night but only stick to beers by them, when my wife asks me how much I've had I can tell her "I've only had Two Beers" and not be lying.

I also like 21st Amendment's Bitter American, although they call it an "extra pale" ale.

Never had anything by them but found Dirty Bastard while out today, so picked up a 6er and will try it out here in a bit.

I'm on the opposite coast so not much chance of trying it, but I was wondering if the hibiscus comes across as flowery at all?
