Speaking of Lagunitas...

I've been on a steady diet of Aslin, the Veil, Other Half, Grimm, Charles Town Fermentory, and Civil Society for the past 12 months but figured i still needed some Lagunitas Born Yesterday based on past pleasures.

Well I'm here to report it's a much better value than the aformentioned beers, but based on quality, they should call it Lagunitas Sucks. Or Heineken Hoppy. West Coast IPA's just don't do it for me anymore.

My wife loved Fremont and hated Reuben's.

Must have been the fact that she was with me when she was at Fremont and without me when she was at Reuben's.

I haven't been to Reuben's so can't comment. I really love the atmosphere at Fremont, been there at the new location as well as the original. But honestly I think I drank a guest mead the last time I was there and didn't have any of their stuff. I think their standards are meh but their specials are fantastic.

Nope not around here. We drove to Florida (Civil Society) and South Carolina (Charles Town Fementory) for Spring Break, and Brooklyn (Other Half and Grimm) for July 4 weekend.

so this might blow your mind, but: it's true.  i crushed my first glass in like 3 takes.  sipped the second half of the bomber, only because i made a point of slowing down.  easily could have mainlined the whole thing.

What was the cost per minute of that beer interaction? Troublesome financial decisions, dear Sweets.

Yeah, but if you got any of the one time DC drop of Other Half, you had to wait in a long ass line.

I did post that they're opening a DC brewery though, right? Sorry memory shot.

I think Pizza P has had Other Half on draft at least one time I was there...but might be confusing that with Singlecut

So I enter my local beer store/watering hole inquiring about this Mozango creature.  Beer guy tells me they're out of bombers.  I say, But I spoke to someone a couple hours ago who said you had a case in stock.   Hmmmm, Oh, here it is, he says.  So i grabbed a couple and asked him what he thought of it as he shook his head and grimaced.  Too sweet, tastes artificial, he says.  Well, I'll be the judge of that. So I ordered the draft version and was immediately hit with a wonderfully fruity bouquet of fresh mangos.  The taste was smooth, carbonation low, head creamy with a somewhat dry piney finish.  Tasted all natural to me, though I was hesitant about the fruited IPA concept initially.  Very easy to drink, though IMHO, it would be a perfect release for the summer....strangely enough we seem to be in the minority,  the keg has lasted a WEEK.
