Official Supp Beer Misc #5: Bring in da Sours, Bring in da Funk

[TheIronAsylum]

picked up the last 2 of these babies

Any Socal bros been to Societe lately? Man I used to love these guys, especially The Pupil & The Publican. Last summer I had The Pupil @ Stone and was disappointed but dismissed it and assumed it was a bad batch or a fluke. Brought my growlers for fills Saturday, but decided to sample both before. What a letdown, ended up leaving the growlers in the car.

[DasBiceps]

Had a few good brews this weekend, the hype is real

Not sure if i'm going to buy new FB release.

Went after a PTY release couple months back. Don't remember it being anything special, but I was well into the day at that point. Have the Pupil and Apprentice locally a lot. Has always been pretty good lately imo.

Hugely disappointed to hear that, they were a big one on my list of places to stop while I am in San Diego this weekend. I've had a fresh growler of the Pupil (6 weeks ago?) and loved it...

Used to stop at Societe everytime I went down to san Diego but it's been super meh recently. Always the same sht on tap except for a new bachelor variation of some random hop. Seems like the quality had been declining. Growler prices are terrible too

Also wonder whatever happened to their sour program that has been in the works forever with random appearances at select events. And yeah, those prices are teh suck

[Tbillionaire]

never been a huge fan of Societe tbh, would take 90% of Noble's IPAs over their lineup any day

Is Noble easy to find in SD?

The Societe pours we had tasted like water after Bad Boy and Nelson on tap.

When I used to live down there I would see bottles every now and then but Orange County def gets most of their showers/special IPA lineup

[Kiefer 2004]

I'm probably one of the few (maybe the only one?) who likes Firestone Walker here, but I've never had this and I really enjoyed this. It's a much light drinking Pale Ale. I would drink this over Manny's, Mirror Pond, and Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale.


This is really good. I was cautious at buying this because I'm not a big fan of the Single-Wide IPA and the Double-Wide IPA. This one is good. The 8.5% ABV, is hidden. Orange, apricot, fruit citrus taste.


I like Breakside brews, but this is just ok. Not that great that I had hoped; very underwhelmed. Still better than most IPA's out there, but I had bigger expectations. I love their regular IPA.

Breakside sent in a couple IPAs for the NIPAC; good shyt. Never had this one though.


Celebrated one of the Beer Jerk's wife's bday last night; busted out meadwhales since she likes spicy shyt, specifically B Nektar Cherry Chipotle and Dragons are real. Both were awesome. Dragons is cherry juice + cacao nib + chipotle pepper mead aged in Dragons Milk barrels. Heart. (sorry for shytty pics; shyt wasn't focusing well)

[jamm!n]

^i offered all you bastid's Breakside Wanderlust and Breakside IPA like two years ago!!

Their regular IPA is good. Had their Safe Word triple and is nice. But their Passionfruit berliner is outstanding.

[jamm!n]

^i really enjoyed their passion fruit sour as well. I sent a bottle to republican and have 1 or 2 hanging around somewhere

Is a great great beer. Got it as an extra from a trade from someone in OR iirc.

[SpeedCheeser]

fak, how do I get mead goodness? Starting to try my hand and making mead again.

New Holland did a great job with the update of Mad Hatter <it's all West Coast with even some dank



Lookout Zombie Dust, the Mad Hatter is coming

[janky]

So Toronado Seattle is doing bottles of Cable Car '14 tomorrow.
Not sure if I wanna get up ass early to wait in line on my day off.... and then pay $65 for on-site consumption


Never had a breakside beer I liked. Passionfruit sour was prob the best out of all I've tried. And Societe tasted pretty watery to me, too... with all the good beer in CA, I don't see why they're so expensive for growler fills of it.

Cable Car is REAAALLLYYY good. I really liked it when I was first on the fringe of drinking sours; haven't had it since. I imagine I'd think it's amazeballs now. Would I pay 65 for it though and be forced to drink it there? IDK. People "stole" CCK bottles because that was supposed to be on-site only but we all know that handfulls of bottles got out into the public. So you can try to see if you can get one now and carry it out with your boyfriend's purse.

[TopsecretWaffle]

I'd buy that cable car 100%. Friend of mine has a ton of cable car and cck. He's gonna open a cable car with me soon. Am excite
