Citra, Simcoe and Ahtahnum. Sorry, you have to be commercial to get in on this.

It's such a fine line between stupid and clever.

Damn, I just had visions of an IIPA with 10 pounds of Citra and 20 pounds of Simcoe just for the sheer outlandishness of it. Either that or turning my entire bottling bucket into a giant Randall...

I think that is very noble of Sam Adams to do, they aren't creating competition by it, they are allowing people to experience the love of beer.
Anyone can make a giant hoppy beer, but allowing people to pursue their dreams is paramount!  Prosit to Jim!
