i remember a while back hearing its just small tweaks, not malt or hop changes.. plus, i drink it nearly every year and it tastes the damn same every year...

i think the same thing about Anchor OSA and it still gets a new entry every year. just wondering where to draw the line when the brewer flat out says different recipe. it's a brown on here, amber ale on RB. it was similar too, but not the same as last time i had it. not particularly good either year [;)]

. . . .got this back.. doesn't sound like a new one to me- but maybe the admins or flash can chime in... "The changes are relatively subtle, but certainly enough to notice. Spice choices/quantity, level of hops/malt, and occasionally a different type of hops or malt. For instance, this year they really upped the hop content and almost made it like a dark, spiced IPA. As a hophead I thought it was, in a word, awesome." it just seems without a major change or a defined recipe each year, doesn't seem necessary... and i'm a ticker too so ... but whatever the admins go for i'm cool with it..
