Yes, lots. One stunk, the rest gave me a boner.

Some of the most absolutely fucking incredible pieces of artwork I have ever consume. Ron can do things with bugs that others can only dream of. I just had a bottle of oro de calabaza (sp?) this weekend with some of my beer drinking buddies that had never had a sour beer before and nearly knocked them off their barstools looking for more.

Just one, a "La Roja" that I found on a local beer shop's clearance rack. It gushed a bit when I opened it, which caused some concern, but it was a tasty, tasty beer. Distinctly sour, but not sharply like a lambic. It still had some body to it, as well. Complex background funkitude, fruitiness, some caramel-like dark sweetness. That was the only JP, um... "Jolly Pumpkin" bottle I've seen in my travels, but I'll be looking for more.

Buy any you can find. Jolly Pumpkin is in my opinion the best brewery out there period.
I have had everything they make and while I have enjoyed some more than others, they are all good.
I had my second Biere de Mars Grande Reserve last weekend and I still say it is one of the best beers I have ever had.

ahh good ol michigan beer! Ron does some wonderous beer. I can get just about everything here in TC. I can try to get a list together of available brews if anyone needs them shipped.
