    Wow! Thanks for the quick reply. I didn't expect that......figures that the JK would not be the good stuff. Stuck here in the middle of the country. So, since I cant drink it all tonight, what would be your first pick?

    Thanks so much for the list!

    Thank you! This will definitely need to be a night out with a cab. No way Hooker is coming up here to give me a ride.

    Here is my haul from my two favorite breweries in MA.

    First up, Be Hoppy from Wormtown Brewery in Worcester MA. This is the best IPA I've ever had.

    Jack's Abby is a brewery that is blowing up in this area out of Framingham, MA. Here are two limited brews they do. They are fantastic!

    Jack's Abby also does a double IPL call Mass Rising that is up there with my favorite IPAs. If you can get your hands on these do it!

    Tried one I'm not too sure about tonight. It was labeled as a rye IPA and I literally got no bitter or pale whatsoever on this tasting. A lot of rye and some citrus fruits. It also seemed overwhelmingly carbonated.

    I think omnipollo fatamorgana wrecked my palate

    This place looks amazing! I'll need to make the drive from KC to Des Moines someday for this. All of the above suggested beers look great to me. I'd be especially interested in the omnipollo nebadchenezar. Their fatamorgana double pale absolutely wowed me and I wAnt to try more of their beers in a bad way.

    Enjoy the brews and let us know what u end up trying.

    Yeah that omnipollo was good. Still doesn't beat the heady topper, or a Nicely age DFH 120

    We just got the Reueze in here 2 or 3 days ago. I'd really like to get some Hop Slam to try as I've never had it but you pretty much have to take off of work and kill someone to get it down here from what I've heard.

    Let it snow.

    My husband has a six-pack of Two Hearted Ale and another of Bells Special Double Cream Stout in the refrigerator. And I have a nicely chilled bottle of daiginjo in there.

    Awesome! I've never had any before but am very excited. Conveniently enough my niece just moved to Tulsa and is regularly commuting between KS and Tulsa. So I'm getting her to go to the source. My instructions were "anything you can get ur hands on, try for 2 bottles of each." I'm mainly interested in prairie bomb, 'Merica, and since my wife loves sours we're hoping to acquire some prairie gold. I'll keep you updated with what type of supply I'm able to get my hands on.
