Just picked up a Pliny and an Enjoy by 10.31.14 today. It's like the Holy Grail of fresh hops!

I only just realized how many Beer Glasses I actually have, considering that I only actually use about 2.

Caved in. It's been in my stocks for months, but wanted to try it before it gets too hot here.

So fucking tasty, better than the previous 'Black Tokyo Horizon' collab. A long sipper.

I really really really really want to try this. Can't remember why my friend's shop didn't get any in - I don't think they do, either. Hopefully they'll get some before its gone...

What did you think of it? I had some this weekend, and I thought it was delicious. A bit thin, but it was like drinking a cinnamon churro. :drool:

I was at a wedding this weekend and pretty much only drank bourbon and Breakfast Stout, so no complaints, but I'll probably crack it this week. I've been going crazy tracking down pepper/spiced stouts recently and so I'm really looking forward to it. Love the Mexican Cake/Abraxas style of pepper heat + chocolate.

The pepper was only slight and at the back end. Left a nice feel in the mouth though.

That sounds wonderful. Yeah, most of the ones I've tried there's just a little heat on the back end. So looking forward to it big time. And fuckin' Prairie Bomb!

It was delicious, dry and earthy like no other, but otherwise extremely refreshing. The chilies and cocoa flavors took a backseat to the dryness and slight vanilla flavor, the chili flavors do linger a lot longer, however. No alcohol flavor as I recall. Poured extremely dakr with a surprising light-colored head. I want another now... :drool:

Have you had Hunahpu? My friend bought a bottle of Xocoveza a couple weeks ago, dropped it in front of us, and it shattered, and it smelled a fair bit like Huna, so I'm wondering how it stacked up. Now that it's cooling down I need as many pepper stouts as possible on my beer shelf.
