This one blew me away. I'd put it right there with Hunahpu and BCS, possibly better.

Not yet, but for the most part I am not a fan of The Bruery. Very well made beer but I rarely like the flavor profiles/combinations they use. There are tons of other breweries putting out beer at half the cost that I like better.

I agree for the most part. They do some really weird things sometimes. Chocolate Rain was rather impressive though. Not that I'd ever actually pay for a bottle even if I could find one since the price is absurd. Only reason I got a taste was because of GABF.

I've discovered, sadly, that Idaho beers are malty sweet abominations. Thank gaws that we share a border with Oregon; because Deschutes.

The beer is solid, yes. But they stopped making some of my favorites (Meph, The Kaiser, ect) to produce more stuff like this, a trade down IMO.
