GSG Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I bought the Sam Adams Spring Sampler tonight. That Maple Pecan stuff is... something. Ugh. The IPL was ok. White Lantern was good. Irish Red was decent. Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Leinenkugels came out with a new beer for a short time called Canoe Paddler. Wasn't too bad. Not a very heavy beer. Reminded me of Bud Light. Too light for my taste but I would consider it for a summer beer. Quote Link to comment

BIGREDIOWAN Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Leinie's is going to be coming out with an Orange Shandy this summer. Buddy of mine toured their brewery last week and they told them there. Had some of Blue Moon's Agave Nectar Ale................pretty good beer. Quote Link to comment
carlfense Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 The only downside is that it seems to run about $10.50 per 4 pack. Thanks for the heads up! (I still haven't found a bad beer from Odell.) Yes, I too was a little disappointed when I reached for the ($9.99 here ) six pack only to discover it was only a 4 pack. I guess I'm pretty lucky living within 30 miles of both Odell and New Belgium. They are both loaded (pun sort of intended-hic) with good beers. FoCo probably has the best population to good beer ratio that I've ever experienced . . . Quote Link to comment

They came out with a Lemon Berry Shandy last year I think. Not very good. But then again I think you have to be a woman to like that type of beer. Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I bought this for my wife as she like the ciders and fruity beers. It wasn't as bad as some cider beers out there. Quote Link to comment

Their Summer Shandy is good, but I'm not a fan of the Lemon Berry Shandy......... Quote Link to comment

It's is probably a good light summer beer. Just not my thing. Quote Link to comment
Husker from Kansas Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I bought this for my wife as she like the ciders and fruity beers. It wasn't as bad as some cider beers out there. Woodchuck hard cider isnt too bad either.But I can only drink one or tow before the taste gets to be too much Quote Link to comment
MLB 51 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Order 2 bottles of St. Bernardus ABT 12. This better be worth it Carl. 1 Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I went on a New Belgium binge this weekend. All of these are excellent. Quote Link to comment

JJ Husker Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I went on a New Belgium binge this weekend. All of these are excellent. Those are all really good beers (IDK about the Springboard Ale however-haven't tried it......yet) But, IMO, you didn't list their best one- Abbey. I've recommended this a couple times earlier in this thread but, if you haven't had it, it is a must try. Quote Link to comment

Abbey was not included but I will investigate further the next time I go on a bender. Quote Link to comment
