What do we have out there in this category? I’m a quite behind on the stream of new beers... actually I’m behind on what is available period - old, recent, new release, etc. I’m looking for beers that focus heavily on the colossal bitter beat down. The more the harsh better - a balanced beer is just a bonus but basically irrelevant.

What do you get from BC in AB?
these are very good: Driftwood Raised by Wolves, Parallel 49 1-8-7, Twin Sails Space Armadillo, Yellow Dog Alpha Dog... but I wouldn’t consider them lacerating. Heavily hopped for sure, though.

And we recently got Sixpoint Puff and Melvin 2x4, both are excellent.
I mention them in case they are imported in both provinces.

Picked up By Wolves a couple of days ago. I’ll look for 187 - I forgot all about this one! I don’t think we get the other brewers. ?
