So I was cruising thru Costco yesterday and I usually get a case of Jubelale when it comes out but saw this "Christmas" beer from Full Sail and thought hey okay. It's pretty awesome. 8.5% so take it easy, but malty, not radically hoppy but it's an imperial IPA so it's hoppy enough. Really a top flight beverage. Despite being a "holiday" offering, it has no pumpkin spice or cranberry/nog/spice just a good stout beer well made.
Almost reached for that one, but saw the Batsquatch and my 5 year old grandson is fascinated by Sasquatch so I got that instead to give him one of the cans next time I see him.
for some reason Batsquatch is $2 cheaper than Dead Guy here. Dead Guy isn't really a summertime favorite but Batsquatch is popular in my house.

I'll have to try that one if I come across it somewhere. The "Dead Guy" is usually the only Rogue selection I see around here for some reason. I'll have to try out some specialty bottle shops in the area.

I also learned that there aren't any monks left in the Achelse Kluis :- (
Hope they will fare well in Massachusetts... Feel I'm goin' back to MassachusettsSomething's telling me I must go home And the lights all went out in Massachusetts!
Treehouse and Trillium are the reasons to go back to Massachusetts....Barry, Robin, and Maurice would agree.
Massachusetts- Quadrupel- 10.2% ABV. fragrant, robust and full bodied, mahogany in color and crowned with dense, tan, frothy head recipe development phase of this Quad stretched over three years.
This is the Best Quadrupel IPA Iâve ever had. And itâs smooth and not Hoppy at all.
Confused.... Trappist from the US?
Achelse Kluis (at cycling distance), De Koningshoeven/La Trappe (bit further away), and then of course Chimay, Orval, Rochefort, Westmalle and Westvleteren, are the old ones. Obviously some US monks, with the help of Chimay, started brewing recently.
Learned something new today!
When you can't pay the bills making jams and jellies....make beer.
I have some Westy 8 and 12 in the basement...carried by bike, train, and plane (in that order) by a very well-trained daughter...which maybe someday will have competition from Massachusetts. Someday.
Nice brewery that is!!

This is the Best Quadrupel IPA I’ve ever had. And it’s smooth and not Hoppy at all.
Spotted a beer in the cooler today from a Wyo brewery so hey. Kind of iffy on the labeling but that's part of the charm.
All Together is a worldwide, open-ended beer collaboration created to raise support for the industry we love so much. It's an effort to raise awareness and provide relief, even in the smallest way, to those who are struggling. We're inviting any brewer, from any corner of the planet to participate. The recipe is open source, the artwork is public, and the name is yours to use.
This one's actually tasty for a "session" IPA, usually they don't impress me. But your local brewer might augment the recipe...
