    I picked up a couple of 6’s of Hopsolution when it came out. It has been on tap at the brewery for years, but this is the first time they ever bottled it. For a double IPA I think both Hopslam and Oracle (both from Bell’s) are better, but Hopsolition is a solid one too.

    Hopsoulution was solid, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get it. Tbh, I probably won't buy it again, not as much based on the beer itself, but rather how many other, more superior offerings in the style are available.

    On a Trillium Vicinity DIPA tonight, grassy & citrus tones without being over hoppy, very nice beer.

    Yup, pretty much my feelings on it as well.

    What Hudson Valley beers do you like? I live pretty close to Captain Lawrence. I know there are more but not familiar with them.

    I just had a couple Bell's Oberon on tap with dinner, but I'm in Wisconsin right now.

    All Founders six packs at a local Maryland liquor store (Perfect Pour) were $12.50, even the session IPA. I'll check Total Wine.

    ^ I've had the Old Peculier and the Hobgoblin. They've really changed the label on the OP since I've last seen it.

    Didn't know that Bengal Lancer comes in bottels also.

    The Hobgoblin was on tap at my local Pub for some years. Hadn't a Landlord for years, the other ones are easy to get here in Münster Germany.

    I've tried as many of those Wychwood beers as I could get my hands on... not because I think they are particularly good, but because I just love the labels!

    OK the lables are great, but some of the beers are too. I really like the King Goblin.

    Hobgoblin was a staple on tap down at my local pub until recently. Very popular. Don't know why they switched it out. Good drinking beer, for sure.

    Guess I'll have a Two Roads Honeyspot IPA, if I'd known I'd have gone down the Trillium brewery

    In the beer fridge right now are beers from Jester King, Wicked Weed and Fonta Flora.

    So I'm good.
    I want to dynamite your mind with love tonight.
