I tried that on tap........Once! Never again. It gets good reviews, but not my style at all.

Rauchbier's are like Gose's in that you either like them or not the 1st time you try the style, and if you don't like the style the first time you try it, the chances of you learning to like the style is really slim!! :beer:

I really dislike the Gose style. Some of the top rated Hill Farmstead, among others, have been wasted on me.

I actually like Gose's!! I didn't at 1st, but on closing day of the Station Taproom at Mount Snow, my go to apres bar by far, in the '13-'14 season, they had a $1 pint kick they keg special until all the kegs were gone. In the end it was down to Founders Rubaeus (and I'm allergic to raspberries) or Lost Nation Gose - I drank about $10 worth of the Lost Nation and have since taken a true liking to the Gose style!!
:lol: :beer:

That Two Roads Geyser Gose (a collaboration with Evil Twin) is mighty tasty!
As for the Lost Nation, one of the bartenders in the Station Taproom, who is also a Gose fan, and probably served me about $7 worth of LN Gose on that kick the keg day I mentioned, still to this day whenever I grab a seat at that bar an a keg of it is on tap, pours me one without asking what I want for my 1st beer of the day!!

Night Shift The 87 DIPA
Exceptional!! Reminds me very much of Fiddlehead Second Fiddle
This solidifies Night Shift as a regular stop every time I head to Boston. Without a doubt a brewery on par with the very best in New England.
Being able to walk in and out with no can limit? Yes please

Did you try Whirlpool? Incredibly crushable Pale Ale.

I did not. Next time. In and out. Grabbed 3 four packs. Santilli, Morph and 87
Love Whirlpool.
Tried this last night, haven't had any other Ryes so I don't have a comparison but it was drinkable. Not an abundance of flavor though.

Boston trip going well so far, hit up nightshift last night - solid ipas, barrel'd is a good sour, awake is a good coffee porter, bennington was a bit much maple for me, Marilyn a little rough but I picked up a couple bottles that I think will age well. Was a little disappointed by trilliums congress st - still good but a bit heavy on the burnt rubber quality. Big sprang is pretty tasty and a unique take on a kolsch. Currently enjoying night shift whirlpool - really different! Green melon and pineapple hop , super crushable. Very nice!
The RYE is just okay. Did you buy it at the brewery?
I'm not sure what their brewing process is, but Stoneface has a really short shelf life. Most of their beers are very good when fresh, but become pedestrian after a few weeks in the refrigerator.
Interesting. I've always loved the IPA when bought direct from the brewery. I've bought some at the store in my town (%10 miles from the source) and if I hold onto a few weeks it goes from being top flight, to just decent. Some of my friends have had similar experiences. Maybe just unlucky
