Green Flash White IPA now. Much better.
Wish they would make Rayon Vert again. Amazing beer...


Are they not making Rayon vert anymore?

Yes they are. Just had some the other night!


Really? I was told that they weren't making it anymore. And it's not listed on their website.
But I hope you're right! :jnj

Indeed Double Day Tripper.
This is a fantastic beer! Outrageously hoppy, there's some malty sweetness that goes away and it finishes really clean.
I imagine this is what Pliny is like.
A "Double Pale Ale", it's 8% and 90 IBU.

Farmhouse Red from Blue Moon.

Luckily I didn't have high expectations, but I wanted to see what it was about anyways. It's labeled as a saison/flanders style. Not exactly sure what that's supposed to be, but that's what they're calling it. They made 1 sale on the "What the fuck?" factor. Kudos.

"An intriguing interpretation of a Saison blended with a Flanders-style Red Ale, with hints of white pepper & a tart finish."

It's not sour. Or tart. Or bears any resemblance of a Flanders Red at all. It's not anything like a saison either.

There's not really anything going on in the flavor, nothing worth mentioning at least. It drinks like macro swill (surprise). I suppose it's a saison, only it's not dry... and fermented with a yeast made for an American wheat. I suppose it's a Flanders style because... hmm... well I can't think of any similarities on any level to any Flanders Red I've ever had. Wait, no. It's carbonated.
