I'm about done with buying any more SN, period. They have totally ignored me and all the other people in my area about how the new distributor cut us out. Totally ignoring us. 

 

No problem. Plenty of great beer on the shelves here. It was nice when I could get it. They went backwards here and stock only Pale Ale and occasionally Torpedo, but never cold. What a waste.

 

I'm done ####ing with them. If they don't want me, my club, and all of the other people here who used to enjoy Celebration, then #### them and the guy who owns it.

Alright.  I am not doing this side-to-side but does the Ruthless Rye taste a lot like Torpedo to anyone else?

 

I'll wait for the flames.  

 

Just another indication they didn't put enough rye into Ruthless.

I have officially missed the Cele season in Duluth.... :crybaby: :crybaby: :crybaby:  I went to my favorite off sale today to grab a 12er of Cele for a New Years Shindig and there sits 2014 Ruthless Rye - I won't lie, I bought and am enjoying it but I'm sad. :(

 

 

My store has Cele and Ruthless at the moment.  Maybe they're hiding it out back!

 

 

I'm on my 4th and last case of Cele for the year.  On to Ruthless...

I just had one bottle so far and it was the first beer of the day on binge day #2. I concur. Ryeless is the new name. But then again my pallet may of been burnt up.

I drank quite a bit of ruthless last year.  IIRC it reminded me a little of Denny's RIPA.  The rye is pretty subtle though.

I liked the first 19, but 24 bottles are too much for me at one sitting.

Thanks for the reminder, it's time for my annual case of Ruthless.  I keep promising myself I'll safe at least a 6 and use it to compare a homespun Rye IPA.  Gonna try and do it this year.

I should mention since I know you are a fan, picked up a 6er of Hopslam tonight. Bottled 1.17.14

 

ETA: My Cele is almost gone too.

No Bell's really to speak of around here.  They technically distribute to MA, but it must be very limited.  I've only seen them at one store in my recollection. 

 

As much as I would love some Hopslam, I know it will never live up to having it in Kalamazoo.
