Finally and thank the beer gods that Lagunitas bottles have arrived and should be arriving regularly. My local grocery is greatly improving their beer selection and I know the guy who is in charge. Saw him at the last homebrew meeting and he said he was only going to have a case of Sumpin Sumpin this weekend and held me some.
Yummy, yummy, yummy I'm gonna have Sumpin Sumpin in my tummy. It can't cool fast enough.

It's almost a shame that it's 7.5% as I want to drink them all now!
Never brewed this and have seen a ton of recipes. I know one of the Borg has the recipe and I think sent it to me long ago but it's gone and I forgot who it was. Might have to revisit it one day. Oh how the list grows.

That someone may have been me. I did a Sumpin clone quite some time ago. Back when we were on the MB forum and I was using QBrew. Maybe I can go back there and find it.

I don't recall that either but I think it was BigPapa.Maybe it was Louie. Swear my memory sucks almost as bad as my brewing!
Would you brew it again?

That Little Sumpin' Sumpin' is one heckuva good beer. If I had to pick a go-to commercial beer on pain of death, that might be the one I'd choose. I'd never turn one down, that's fer sure.

From what I recall....yea, I would brew that again. It's been quite a while, but I do remember it being pretty good.

There is a big bottle of "Lagunitas Sucks" at my local grocery that I've been eyeing...

Looks like we're only going to get LSS and IPA. I don't think we are ever going to get the seasonals but I guess if these 2 sell, they might.
I've heard that they have every state asking for their beer and they can't make enough so we do get a pittance. A number of pubs have already had their kegs but I guess it's a wait and see for us.
I've only had 1 Sucks and it most certainly does not!

As I recall it Chris, you got the idea to brew LSS when you, BeerRx, and I met at that vegan bar and exchanged beer. I've never brewed a LSS clone so I know it wasn't me.

Your right. The link I posted actually has both of you making comments regarding that visit.

I wonder what ever happened to BeerRx. He was a nice guy. That was a great night of food and beers.

No bacon....but the best vegan bratwurst you'll ever have. If I didn't know it wasn't vegan, I would have never known. And I'm a meatatarian!!!!!
