I'll let it go at that, except to say that it's often about which beer we like more rather than stylistic lockstep.Lew Brysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04084380741402026573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315262155858800734.post-76479390836208947042008-10-01T07:24:00.000-04:002008-10-01T07:24:00.000-04:00Lew, If you can say without irking people, what we...Lew, If you can say without irking people, what were the "worst" ones?

However I didn't think it really hit the Oktoberfest style. It seemed like a fantastic dunkel to me, reminding me a lot of Anderson Valley Summer Solstice or Mexicali Dark.Scoatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02551058895930966973noreply@blogger.com
