Picked up a few sixers and wanted to let you guys know so you can enjoy these too.. Here is the list..

#1 - Saranac Pumpkin Ale I am 5 deep on that one already:monkeydance: Great taste with the pumpkin spice

#2 - OtterCreek White Sail its brewed with Orange and Coriander or Cilantro..Its a light ale I guess and leaves a nice subtle but spicy aftertaste its good..

#3 - Sammy A Oktoberfest always a classic!!

#4 - Left Hand Brewery Saw Tooth Ale its nice sort of a Pale - Ale but a bit darker..

#5 - Long Trail BlackBerry Wheat.. If you like Sammy A cherry wheat well try this its got a perfect combo of wheat and berry flavor not to overpowering. P.S has to be real cold to taste really good..

#6 The coors light my Wife is drinking which I just tossed into the woods.. Fawking water in a bottle...

Hope you guys get to try at least one of these, I am in NJ but the Sammy A you can get anywhere.. Let me know what you think. Later

Good picks, I buy some of those. Saranac pumpkin is always a good bet, as is Sam Adams Oktoberfest.

White Sail is a solid summer beer. I think it's new this year as well.

The Blackberry Wheat kind of splits people- it is quite sweet and light, so, yeah, cold serving on a hot day is the ticket. Some find it lacks any real body, but I can drink one or two and enjoy.

Yeah the BlackBerry is no pounding beer... But its good to have like you said one or two with a meal. Yeah the White Sail in new this year its a real good addition to there line up. Have you tried Left Hand Brewery there out in CO.. Soon the Stout's my friend.. But glad to see another beer connoisseur :clapping:

Yeah, that Left Hand is the only one I haven't tried. I used to live in Vermont (Middlebury, where Otter Creek is) and just moved from NJ (Mountain Lakes in Morris County) to CT, so I have a good amount of exposure to east coast beers. I don't ever seem to branch out too much and buy things from the west- it was either east coast brews or imports from Canada, Germany or Belgium for the most part. I'll keep an eye out, though.
