@RCLT - what other local brewery is pumping out saisons of comparable quality to Mystic? Bring it to the national scale - how many other $10/750 Saisons are even out there? I'm staunchly against outra more »

Jim shouldn't bark up that tree. His entire "process" is now dictated by margins and no care for the end product. Think any of their beers use all natural and/or fresh ingredients these days? Think th more »

Comment on: Review: Maine Beer Co. Lil One - 99 Bottles - Inside the world of craft beer - Boston.com
BBA Framinghammer, in the same size bottle, is the same price as Peeper in MA. Something is seriously wrong with MBC pricing.

Comment on: Review: Narragansett Bock - 99 Bottles - Inside the world of craft beer - Boston.com
Gary - your glass is dirty, wasn't rinsed well enough after washing or it wasn't air dried and the towel you used to dry it left lint behind. Keep it clean!

Comment on: Why Boston is a special beer town - 99 Bottles - Inside the world of craft beer - Boston.com
A theoretical 12 oz pour of Pliny in Boston would likely be $9.
The average price for Founders Breakfast Stout on draft has been $9 this year. WTF?

Comment on: Go-to beer: Sierra Nevada Torpedo - 99 Bottles - Inside the world of craft beer - Boston.com
The Alchemist ALREADY doubled production of Heady as of the canning of January - they still sell out of each canning run before the next canning run is done. They've gone on record stating that they'l more »

Comment on: Go-to beer: Sierra Nevada Torpedo - 99 Bottles - Inside the world of craft beer - Boston.com
Union Jack HAS to be fresh. Falls off the cliff fast and hard. Torpedo is always a safe bet. Even once it's past its prime it still has a solid flavor to it.

Tremont is a defunct brewery. The name was bought by and is now brewed by Shipyard up in Maine. For brewers closer to Boston Proper and doing their own work - Nightshift, Mystic or Idle Hands. All 3 m more »

Comment on: Review: Westvleteren XII - 99 Bottles - Inside the world of craft beer - Boston.com
Yeah - it was 10 Euros in Belgium. The big difference is the bars that serve it in Belgium pick it up straight from the Abbey where they charge 39 Euro for an entire case of 24 (technically against th more »

Comment on: Review: Westvleteren XII - 99 Bottles - Inside the world of craft beer - Boston.com
Had the Westy XII alongside St Bernardus Abt 12 while in Belgium a couple weeks back. The flavor of rarity aside - they were neck and neck on flavor, aroma and mouthfeel. Not surprising b/c St BErnard more »

Comment on: Review: Peak Organic Hop Noir - 99 Bottles - Inside the world of craft beer - Boston.com
Right there with renzi555 - Stone's SSR is the standout/benchmark in this "category." With regards to the Peak offering - it is solid and I would say stands head and shoulders above their other offeri more »

Comment on: Pumpkin beer already?!? - 99 Bottles - Inside the world of craft beer - Boston.com
@dkel7213 - you hit it on the head - all of these brewers pumping out their pumpkin beers in August are using canned pumpkin. CBC uses nothing but fresh roasted pumpkins for their 'The Great Pumpkin' more »

Comment on: 'Sitting pretty'
@dc_mcneil and emannths - PT uses a good chunk of locally sourced grains from valley malt. Small, local operation that costs quite a bit more. They embrace the locovore movement for the entire process more »
