Pretty rare beer. Never had the pleasure... Yet.slowoldman said:
Scott, wish I would have known that. I would have had you join me at Eureka. I ended up with two flights. Good beer, nice triple, but to be honest, I prefer the Elder. I like the bite of the hops.Scott SoCal said:Pretty rare beer. Never had the pleasure... Yet.![]()
Lotsa beer being aged in bourbon barrels these days.Race Radio said:Do we also talk about bourbon here?
Like that stuff.....but here is a secret, the 12 year is better and cheaper. most Wheated Bourbons don't age well. When I was in Kentucky last year I heard they were going to stop making the old stuff so they could get more supply on the market now.slowoldman said:
Those two are pretty much my favorite beers ever.Scott SoCal said:Pretty rare beer. Never had the pleasure... Yet.![]()
Elder is found without too much trouble. Younger..... isn't.Hugh Januss said:Those two are pretty much my favorite beers ever.
Yes Elder is very good and way more available. A local place had a Younger tapping party a year ago and sold out two kegs in 1/2 hour, or about 10 minutes before my friend and I got there.Scott SoCal said:Elder is found without too much trouble. Younger..... isn't.
Truth be told, I'm still developing my luv for hop-centric beer. Something I can't steer clear of is Dogfish Head 90 Minute.

Why not make it last longer and let more people try it?
The hoppier the better!Two of my favs are Ballast Point Sculpin and Green Flash West Coast IPA. The Dogfish just tastes a little muddied to me.
I think I mentioned on the thread some time back that Younger can be found in about 4 or 5 places in SF when it comes out. If you find yourself there that time of year, PM me and I'll send you a list.Scott SoCal said:Elder is found without too much trouble. Younger..... isn't.
