I don't even think I'll pursue Hopslam this year.

i'm thinking that last year's debacle will have tempered demand (re: yada and JF's posts, above).  i hoping that hopslam is 1) better than last year, and 2) slightly easier to find.

if early reviews are ok, and i come across some, i'll probably snag it.  but there is too much other stuff that i'd rather have at the moment, at that price.

Got lots of Abrasive if any of you locals are up for a trade.

Whoa... drinking my first BAD Wings...

I picked up a sixer that was canned on 12/27 and the can I'm currently drinking is basically a drain pour. Smells awful and doesn't taste good either. Anyone else pick up this batch?

[sweetcell]

strangely enough, my first ever OTWOA was from that 12/27 canning.  i thought it lacked body (too thin) but it wasn't horrible.  hop aroma was really nice.

My first can wasn't drinkable... I poured it out after maybe drinking a bit of a 1/3rd of it.

weird.  have you tried any others?  maybe that was a fluke.

If you meant the batch, no... I haven't. I'll report back when I do though!

yeah, that's what i meant.  hopefully the rest of you case(s) is ok.

i wouldn't mind trading for some.  i tried some abrasive, once, at a bottle share party.  wouldn't mind a full pour.

that being said, logistically i have no idea how we could make it happen.  i have zero time to run after beer traders, and ask stevewizzle how efficient i am in the get-to-the-fedex-store department (i'm going tomorrow, i swear...)

I have fairly limited time myself, but you have my personal email...drop me a line and if we can make it happen at some point, great! Otherwise, I'll keep it all for myself.
