There were many a Sunday morning that I could be found dragging the ball diamond prepping for a game nursing a hangover with an arrogant bastard 22 in my hand. Did wonders to chase away the headache, but nothing to help hydrate (that was the gallon of water and 2-32 oz Gatorades).I threw up minutes after this picture was taken (2009, Alaska). Arrogant Bastard is NOT meant to be drunk from the bottle!
EDIT: It's actually Double Bastard. Even worse!
I don't know how far they are distributed, but I've been really impressed by Jack's Abby for lagers.I drink homebrew now almost exclusively, but in prehistoric times, my regular beer was Ballentine India Pale Ale. They spelled it out back then, before IPA was a thing. Sierra Nevada became my go to for a while after that, though I liked Lagunitas too.
Last time I bought a 'craft' IPA, in a fancy bottle for high dollars, with an essay on the back of label in small writing about how much care the expert brewers put into the brew...it tasted more like a bouquet of flowers than beer. It's even harder to find a really good store bought lager though.

(Porch Fest has "modern" hops I don't care for, and I thought "copper lager" more apt than "munich dunkel" for Red Tape, but generally very good )
eally impressed by Jack's Abby
I'd buy it again
WELL. . . . The very reason I first started brewing beer was because I could not reliably get whatn I wanted in a beer. I can buy Sierra Nevada every day, and Two Hearted as well - So old school is at my finger tips. If they disappear - I have and can make reasonoble facimilies. I rarely buy or bother with "new" styles anymore. Tootie Fruity Sludge beer ruined THAT for me some time ago. The couple of "New" or "Cold" items I tried were wholey underwhelming. But the concept was cool, so I am working on a variation to suit my personal tastes. I did have a couple of "Brut" IPA's when that was a thing, that were very good, but of course they went away in a hurry. I can get pretty close to them at home If i get a hankering.
The current state of the bottle shop is a little sad - too many "trendy" and not enough for drinking. The age of 8-10% everything and "cold" "Pastry" "Imperial" "Hazy" taking up all the domestic shelf space. I also see a LOT of them gathering dust! Cool thing is; Bunches of imports that used to move SLOWLY from the shelves now turn over quickly, and suddenly I can buy tasty classic imports with much less fear of getting an old stale skunky unit. One change alaways brings another!
And all said and done - I can generally cure all my beer angst with a good brew day or two! That is the whole point I think.
