I used to enjoy Lagunitas, until they pulled this:

Critical Drinking

It's just bad beer karma. These guys are forgetting where they came from. Craft beer, and their respective breweries foundation is all about community. I'm not saying you shouldn't stand up for yourself when you feel wronged, but these lawsuits reeked of hypocrisy, and big beer.

Sorry, rant over. Have a great Beer Weekend! I'll be heading to Southern Pines Brewing tomorrow and will try to get some pics.

Shame on Lagunita's. I was kinda over them as whole anyways. They're too mainstream for my snobby beer self lol. I've stuck to the local smaller breweries as of lately.

I'm just a big IPA fan, but after reading that I'll just move on. Plenty more out there to try. Thanks.

Special edition Warrior Witte produce by Straight to ale brewery locally here in Huntsville, Al to commemorate the first flight of the OH-58F. One time brew never to be reproduced. Of course that aircraft has been canceled along with the retirement of all remaining US Army Kiowa's. I bet that beer doesn't taste as well now as it did when first brewed. Been in my fridge almost a year now.

Sounds yummy!!! I read an article where people are saving their high gravity stouts ext. like wine and aging them. Wonder if they get better with age. I wish they had a chinook beer I'd drink a case. Once a ****** always a ******.

Only the blackest of Stouts for me. Being honest it was almost too strong to enjoy. I think I draw the limit right around the Boubon County ABV

It was so dark I thought the glass was brown/black until I poured it

That's a bit ******* of Lagunitas. (Not to say Sierra Nevada has not pulled the occasional dousche card as well).
It suck when these guys forget where they came from.
