In the summer I do like a Mikes Hard Lemonade. Does that put me in the same class as White Claw drinker?

Anyways ...

Wicked Weed Dark Age - another BA stout with coffee notes. Like almost all BA stouts, its really good and pretty expensive. Id put this slightly ahead of the Sticky maple I had a few weeks ago.

im just grabbing a different BA stout on my weekly trip at this point.

MD just has too many damn breweries popping up.

true respite
cushwa
inverness farms
mobtown
elder pine
slate farm
black flag
astro lab
denizens
7 locks
crooked crab
oliver

.. and so many more that could be added here. Add in all the VA, PA and NY pop up breweries and its getting ridiculous. Im not dropping $12 for a sixer I know nothing about. When I do, its fucking meh below average quality.

They need to be sending reps to every craft beer store and give out free samples. And not just what the beer store has in their inventory (its usually dated and stuff that doesnt sell quickly). Covid has made free samples impossible right now but ... the market is just flooded with new beers from new breweries i never heard of.

If I like a beer you have, i will buy it in my regular rotation.

Im sticking with the originals like RAR, Union, Manor Hill, Monument etc.

-------------

if beer is this cheap to make and market that any dick and tom can open a brewery .. fuck off with charging us $12 a sixer for a simple pale ale or pils.

Why is every 6 pack $12 and up?

----

Burley Oak ... have that shut production down? I havent seen them in a long time. ill happily spend $ on any new offerings from them.

Overhead, production cost .....typical cost to run a business of that type . License's are not cheap.

Burley has been having quality control issues. IPA's are oxidized and sours are exploding.

Don't sleep on these. The newer breweries have been putting the originals to shame. Cushwa may be the best brewery in MD and Oliver has been around longer than all of them.

Mike glad you chimed in, you and BD know the md beers real well.

Do you have any recommendations from cushwa and others (that I can find on the shelfs)? I knew Oliver has been around, weren’t they part of a bar just outside fells point that brewed their own beer?

Thanks for the info on burley.

Just about anything from Cushwa is great. Black Flag does some awesome IPA's but only buy the 4 packs. Most in 6 packs are mediocre. You are right about Oliver, it was originally associated with the Wharf Rat but I think they changed ownership or brewmasters as its way better now.

The wharf rat! Yes that’s it. I used to live about 2 blocks away in my party years. I knew I had rats, I knew they had rats .... good times.

If you had a long ass day and need a fast buzz: Elysian Space Dust IPA.
