OT: Fairhope Brewing's Kingslayer

[thebushman82]

Well we went out of our comfort zone here for this review. Kingslayer is a mouthful. It is a bourbon barrel aged Russian imperial stout. I know how everyone is feeling about the Russians but this is not in connection with them. Anyways, Fairhope Brewing is pretty solid, check them out if you ever get the chance. Thanks for watching!

I'll look into it. I do know Fairhope's Causeway IPA is solid.

Speaking of beer, Ballast Point just opened their taproom/restaurant near my town... will begin brewing here this summer. I've been to their brewery in San Diego and I think this one on the east coast will be better.

The sculpin is vastly overrated.

 

[thebushman82]

I compare it to TN football. Always highly overrated. Still a solid brew just nothing too special.

 

[InTheIttaBenaHotSun]

I wholeheartedly disagree about Sculpin. It's a very good IPA

 

[thebushman82]

It's good. No doubt. It's just that to me, before I had it, it was over hyped imo. Do I buy when I can? Yes. Would I turn it down? Hell no.

If you can find it in your region try Latitude 33 American Strong Ale. Flavorful, smooth, and strong.

One more for you. Stone Brewery is expanding eastward from San Diego. Their Mega Wheat Double IPA is killer. The added wheat suppresses the hops bitter after taste. Costco has stocked this beer lately for only $6.00 a 22 oz bottle. It is about $9.00 in regular grocery and liquor stores. I understand Alabama has Costco so it may appear there at times. Cheers

Yeah that mega wheat is damn good. I'm in Jackson though. Stone's Wussie is currently one of my favorites at the moment.

I hope the Costco in the Jackson area goes thru so you can get quality beer at a good price, Cheers

I thought it was going in ridgeland? Last I heard there were a lot of butt hurt people about where it was located. Hey but there is a Taco Bell in Madison now.
