Gemini is unfiltered so maybe that is a big factor?


Tonight its Duck-Rabbit Milk Stout for me

Drank quite a bit of this when i visited the brewery. Not sure which i like better, this or the un earthly. I have never had the Hoppe which is the other half of the Gemini. that might be where that flavor is coming from.
Last night i had the new Flying Bison IPA and Sams Alpine Spring

It was a good basic Pale Ale. I wouldn't go out of my way to find it but I would drink it again.

Just tried my first one of these last week. I really liked it but it just wasn't that hoppy.

I've had Lagunetas Hop Stoopid, and thought the same thing, but enjoyed the Deschutes better.

The only extremely hopped beer that has really stood out to me has been Stone's Ruination. (sp?)
