why does smuttynose beer taste like beer made in the late 90s/early 2000s to me?  heavy use of crystal or something?  a certain yeast?  certain hops?  I still like it just fine but it def brings me back to that era of craft beer.

 

in particular I have recently had some shoals pale ale and some finest kind IPA.  both respectable beers for the price.

I may have to pick up a 6 pack of one of their beers and give it a try.  I can not remember the last time I had anything from Smutty.

I've never tried any of their beers but I've made the Finest Kind IPA (from Steele's IPA book) a few times and really like it.

My gf's favorite beer is Smutty Old Brown Dog, that discount would be good lol.

Easy there buddy lol... I've got another 10 years or so to work... the way I figure it, if you love your job, and I do, there is zero reason to retire

Well your parents sound old, or rich. Because in my college ages my Dad would have been in his 40's.
