Drinking a Blue Star Wheat by North Coast. It's fine, but it's hard to eff up a wheat beer.  Tastes a lot like Boulevard with a lemon, get this, WITHOUT THE LEMON . We'll see what Sabi thinks about it when he arrives!

Just picked up 4-packs of 8-bit and Myrcenary, and now I'm kinda hoping I get snowed in and don't have to go anywhere.

Oasis is the only Tallgrass I like. Drinking one now.

Had a few blanche de chamblys tonight. Great stuff, very tasty.

[Bqqkie Pimp]

Anybody found & tried this yet? 

It sounds interesting & they did a nice job on the chocolate ale before. 

 

[Bqqkie Pimp]

Hello?!?!?!  Is this thing on??  (taps mic...)

[Pete]

I liked the Chocolate ale a lot, as a novelty one time type of thing.  I wouldn't very much of it.  However, last year I bought a bottle and it had gone bad.  They came out and acknowledged that a batch or whatever was bad, and mine was one in that group.

I haven't had the coffee ale.  Is it out in liquor stores, or just on tap?

[8manpick]

I had the Boulevard Smokestack: Grainstorm Black Rye IPA on tap last night and it is one of my favorite beers I've had.

Bud Select 55 is the worst thing ever.

['taterblast]

like a dumbass, i didn't realize the alcohol % was so low on the super low cal beers. i thought they just magically lowered the calorie content while keeping the same amount of alcohol.

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

next time im pounding 15 natty lights and someone makes fun of me for drinking it im going to yell in their face "ITS LOW CARB DICK!"

Oasis is by far my least favorite of all Tallgrass beers.

I would replace the Oasis in this photo with their new Ethos IPA and be completely happy with any of the choices.

Oasis is the only Tallgrass I like. Drinking one now.
