The only O'Fallon I had was the Smoke I got as a trade at one of the brunchgates, that was good stuff. Hopefully the peach will brought by someone in the fall.

Check this week. I gathered that the first batch was just sent off this week.throatybeard wrote:I have not seen the Peach Wheat in the store I go to, yet.Lavabe wrote:I just called O'Fallon Brewery.
The WHEACH (Peach wheat) is out in the stores in St. Louis.![]()

It's going to be brewed all summer long.
If only Arkie or throaty were on this board... ;)
Though I haven't been in at least a week.
I wish I was, although there is something fun about struggling to find Duke football on the radio every Saturday in the fall. Of course, I'd give that up for the ridiculous beer trades that I hear take place at BrunchgateCameronBornAndBred wrote:WOW! That sounds incredible, thanks for sharing your review. I've got a couple special bottles for tonight as well, but niether will top that. Great find. You need to be closer to Brunchgate country
So where exactly can one find this beer? It does such delicious! I did a quick google search and get hits for Minnesota, but the AveryBrewing company is in Bolder, CO which is closer to your call sign!rockymtn devil wrote:For my first Ymm Beer on the new board, I've cracked open a bottle of Avery Brabant. ....
I did do a dunkelweiss back in the fall from a kit, and I liked it a lot. I believe Devildeac did as well. This weekend I am bottling my latest brew, which is all-grain, but it's a cherry dunkelweiss. I'm pretty excited to taste the results. As far as struggling on the radio goes, I hope it's less of a struggle this year, but there is always the audio feeds available on goduke.com. Pretty cheap, especially when it's the only way to hear Bob.rockymtn devil wrote: I wish I was, although there is something fun about struggling to find Duke football on the radio every Saturday in the fall.

Apparently O'Fallon is a brewery to be looking out for. I've never had any of their brews.
Avery is in Boulder. You might be able to find some, but it likely depends on whether the stores near you have a relationship with an Avery rep/distributor. I know someone who recently found some in Atlanta, so it did make it east of the Mississippi.cl15876 wrote:So where exactly can one find this beer? It does such delicious!

I'll look for it, here in VA. I saw a picture of it and it reminded me of the variety of beers and colors and tastes in Brussels when I was there many years ago! Thanks for the review and I suspect you are nursing that flavorful brew as we speak!rockymtn devil wrote:Avery is in Boulder.

I am. I've been making quarter pours into a red wine glass and it's making reading this week's SI (with Psycho T on the cover) a bit more bearable. I will add that the beer funks up a lot as it warms.cl15876 wrote:I'll look for it, here in VA.

Chris has reviewed his own brews as I have whenever he was kind enough to share/trade with me before/during and after Brunchgates. I believe he brewed a dark dunkel in Sept/Oct. and, as usual, it was well done.rockymtn devil wrote:I wish I was, although there is something fun about struggling to find Duke football on the radio every Saturday in the fall.

Several of the regular posters on the "ymm, beer" thread on the "other" board have quite a fondness for a number of the Unibroue (sp?) offerings.colchar wrote:All this talk of beer makes me miss London more than ever. Some great beers over there. Oh well, at least I can console myself with rye...
I am sitting here ready with my bottle opener. And my open bottle....dammit. Well, I'll be ready at 10:00 PM with my NEXT open bottle. Wooohooo!devildeac wrote:

No. CB&B will say 3 but he has knowledge of the Imperial Bock. And the Imperial Stout, and Imperial White....so he wonders what is YOUR number 3 (or 4)? And he wonders why this isn't Ymm, Beerish.devildeac wrote:Sam Adams Imperial Stout-One of the 3 of the new SA Imperial series, though CB&B will say 4 but I have not seen the Imperial Bock yet ;) . This is nearly black and a bit viscous with an aroma of dark chocolate and a palate to match. Modest hops but the dark malts rule here with a slight hint of coffee and some licorice and molasses, too. I still like the Brooklyn better and have for years but this is quite a brew. ABV is 9.2% so this will be my only brew of the evening.
Okay, I will initially kick this off.CameronBornAndBred wrote:I am sitting here ready with my bottle opener. And my open bottle....dammit. Well, I'll be ready at 10:00 PM with my NEXT open bottle. Wooohooo!devildeac wrote:
