[@makalarch]

og speedway in the 750 was a find in philly in like 2011, just remember being so psyched to find it at a local bodega one day. just had the barrel aged coffee cake edition lol, times they are a changin.

That was one of the cans I saw! How was it?

[@makalarch]

@@jsenigaglia it was good, kind of like how i generally think about goose i know it's going to be quality product and not overwhelming like what the young bucks are doing

[@makalarch]

@@jsenigaglia barrel and coffee forward more than the cinnamon or vanilla if i recall, not like these weldwerks or horus's (though i do love them) that beat you to death with an adjunct haha

Alesmith is awesome!

[@jsenigaglia]

That brewery is beautiful 🍻

@ I do remember the old days at the first location tho! Good times on Saturday mornings

That is cool information about Sam and his brother. Had no idea! As for this beer, I actually bought the mixed four pack with four of the Grand Prix Speedway Stout variants when I was in Ohio recently, and also bought one for Kyle (No Hype), so I can't wait to get into 'em! I typically try to shy away from reviews of beers I haven't had yet, but had to see what you thought. Bummer the maple didn't come through, but glad to hear it's still tasty! BTW, the four pack was $16.99, which blew me away. Such a great price point! Great review, good sir. Cheers!

[@jsenigaglia]

So I misspoke (I blame beer among other things). Sam & Peter are cousins, but cool nonetheless 😬. Bro, the price point is insane for what we’re getting! Good on AleSmith ya know? Looking forward to hearing what you guys think of them!!

A couple of years ago I was in San Diego, and I went to several breweries. AleSmith is the only brewery I visited twice. It’s such an awesome location. 🍻

[@jsenigaglia]

It really is! I just wish it wasn’t such a far drive for me. I guess now that I have a son with a license I should take advantage 😬😂🍻

[@DannyDrummer-q7f]

I want one of these on my first break at work. 🎉🎉😊.

[@jsenigaglia]

Haha yes!!!

[@asdfasdfasdfasdeff]

Remember the vietnamese coffee variant? havn't been down there in ages but used to do the beer trek and visit all of them so long ago. while ballast point was small and they used to do their victory at sea day as well.

[@jsenigaglia]

I remember the days of standing in line during the library releases and seeing fights because dudes were line cutting to get BA Vietnamese Speedway bottles 😆😆😆

[@cloudyview]

Wait... Was this recorded a long time ago? December on the can, but a few months in the can? If it was just 5 days (or less) in the can, that explains the HUGE coffee notes 😄

[@jsenigaglia]

HAHA I meant to say *couple days in the can. I may or may not have been intoxicated during this review ;)

[@trentbrown5091]

I lived in SD for 33 years and just found out Peter Zien is related to Sam the Cooking Guy. That blew my mind 😮

[@jsenigaglia]

I misspoke in the video. They’re cousins, not brothers 🤦🏻‍♂️😂🍻

[@trentbrown5091]

@ Oh Gotcha. Either way I feel Like I should have known that being a fan of both haha 🍻

[@ajoyce]

Yeah man, Sam has like 3.7M subs and I think owns or partially owns several restaurants.

[@jsenigaglia]

It’s so wild. Good for him though. He’s made it 💪🏼

[@RAIDERTONY323]

I agree bro"natural flavors"should be banned or at least tell us wtf we're putting in our bodies

[@jsenigaglia]

💯🍻
