"Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chamber of my brain -
Quaintest thoughts - queerist fancies
Come to life and fade away;
What care I how time advances?
I am drinking ale today." ~ Poe

Wow. I'm shocked you found that one in New Glasgow.

I've had two of Garrison's Rye IPA now. The first one I picked up at an NSLC store was pretty decent. While it did have a little floaties in suspension, it was by no means a lot and the beer tasted really good. I cracked open my second bottle of it now that I purchased at Premier, and there is a shit ton of floaties in this bottle!! I completely understand Jeff's comment now about it tasting like hoppy cardboard. Talk about quite the contrast between the two bottles I purchased of it.

I wanted to give the Rye IPA a second chance so I picked up another bottle last evening. What a sucker I am. Just cracked it open and it's full of floating shit and oxidized to hell again. A second drain pour.
