Went to the new Whole Foods the other day in Dedham, MA. My understanding is this is their largest store in the USA. They have a great selection of beer & wine there. So, I picked up a 4-pack of the new Weyerbacher Double Simcoe and a 6-er of Bear Republic Racer 5.
I love beers that have Simcoe hops in them, but after drinking the Double Simcoe I can honestly say the saying "too much of a good thing" applies here. The Racer 5 was great though. Reminds me a lot of Dogfish 60 with a little less sweetness and a little more of a bitter finish.

Oh F**K Me
I wasn't planning on buying much just a six pack of John Henry, but I found these.
Plan on drinking one on a bit and putting at least four to six bottles away.

I bought another 4 pack of KBS yesterday. I think this may be the best beer I've ever had. Seriously.

I overpaid Dave but scored a case. I can't get Founders here in New York, so sometimes you have to bite the bullet if you want something.
