Haven’t even seen Low Life around. I haven’t really seen Beaster Bunny much either...it was on display at Liq Mart once but not out for sale. Never saw it Hazels either. *shrug*

The 4 packs are in the cooler at hazels back near the bomb shelter.

Ironic sense of humor.. Not a single one of the beers which are cheaper then CS beers are barrel-aged blends, entirely fermented oak, 100% Brettanomyces, etc.. your comparing apple to passion fruit.. I guess thats why no one even cared to comment.

Cheers,
Chad

FYI, according to AVG Antivirus, the crookedstave.com website appears to be infected with "Blackhat SEO". Here’s the report:

Here’s some help (if you need it) on cleaning up:

I was going to see if your site mentioned how long you tend to barrel-age. I expect it varies from beer to beer, but is there an average? Weeks? Months? Year? e.g., the regular Surette.

Am curious about Evil Twin Low Life, but am not gonna risk $10 on a potential drain pour Pils. It’s brewed at Fanø

The bottles selling here are made at Two Roads. Quite nice, IMHO...hoppy and clean, mid to upper 3s. It’s in 12oz bottles at Liq Mart.

At $10 a 4-pk, Evil Twin has obviously mis-priced the beer a few dollars too many. Maybe I should write and notify them. I’ll do that after I contact all breweries who package their beers in bombers.

Well, sure, it’s not quite good enough or priced modestly enough to buy a 4-pack of (I only got the one bottle to try, $2.39)...just sayin’ it’s certainly not a drain pour. Dranked purty gud.

I didn’t even know that Phil Markowski was head brewer at Two Roads until last night, that certainly answers my question why they are doing these beers so well.
