Since you have the Stone Brewing Gargoyle in your avatar, you obviously have good taste.
You hit the nail on the head. Basically the long and short of it. I haven't seen the normal beer guy around I talk to at the liquor store, so some other dude was pushing these hard. Apparently they sold out quick and people loved them

So anyways I snag 2 of them because I don't know the guy and don't usually trust people who's tastes I haven't verified. The first one I drank a few days after I bought it. It was passable as an IPA but that's about it, nothing great....I didn't want to finish it but beer is beer. Too dry, tastes too "pine-y".

So now I'm sitting here bored and whatnot about 2 months later, this one is no better. Nothing worth buying once even to try. I'll finish it but yeah disappointed, especially since I absolutely love their Ten-Fidy. Damn good beer for $4.

This, not so much
