It is unfortunate that I ended up with an old bottle, but I am glad at the same time that my palate was good enough to suspect that at the time. This review was done earlier in the year and I have since had (and enjoyed) more of your bottled product at The Beer Festival of the South, which only strengthened my suspicions of the bottle I opened at home. I have been meaning to get down to your brewery on the recommendation of friends and I hope to do so soon. I will email you directly with the information regrading the purchase location.

For the past 2 1/2-3 years we have bottled in SC with Thomas Creek but those are 12oz bottles and not 16oz as this one is. That one was filled at the brewery long ago. Try our fresh product, I think you will be much happier with the beer and if you know where you got that bottle please let us at the brewery know so we can contact the retailer and get that horrible old stuff off the shelf.. Beer is food, it spoils and is very perishable. There are some retailers are not as informed about that so occasionally we have to inform them about the difference between fresh unpreserved products and the other stuff sitting in 18packs on the shelves.. Thanks for sharing your thoughts no matter what, in this case it called our attention to some very old products we must still have out there somewhere! Cheers!
