<br />
Nothing to see here. Haven't spent any time playing games or painting/assembling/converting minis. Take a look at this sad scene from my dusty work space as proof:<br />

Just a pile of partially base coated plague infested ratmen looking for love. I want to paint them! I do! I just can't find the motivation and I can't remember the last time I actually played a game of Warhammer. Probably about this time last year?!<br />
<br />
Speaking of last year... that was when we had Dog Bowl V. Furry and I have been doing this version of the Kalamazoo Bloodbowl tournament for six years now! In fact Dog Bowl VI is happening today! I even managed to get a bit of paint on the trophies for this year that my friend Mark prints for me. Check them out!<br />

Who will win? Will the game store hosting us actually have a place for us to play? Will it be fun?

Writing this post in week #8 as I was out of town having fun and away from the computer last week for 5 days. I did manage to get just a little bit done on the hobby front though. Just a couple basecoat colors on some pestilent rats. </div>

These minis would be a lot more fun to paint if I hadn't primed them in something terrible which rejects layered paint on top. I'm hoping I can use this to my "advantage" to make them look extra gritty and diseased. We'll see if I can keep my cool throughout the whole lot. I still have an entire Virulent Horde to assemble and paint after this lot! </div>

And of course I finally got some primer on the Nurgle lot from last week. Looking forward to getting these fat flyboys on the table to see what they are capable of!</div>

It's basically a single player solitaire game played with a tarot deck and dungeon crawl/rpg elements. Pretty fun! The basic rules are easy to pick up and I managed to "win" on my third game after getting all of the treasure hordes and making my way back out of the dungeon alive. The original game rules are free for download so <a href="https://matthewlowes.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/dungeon-solitaire-tofk.pdf">check it out</a> if you are interested. You can play the basic set with just a deck of cards. </div>

Didn't get any games in this week! Between working on the weekend, fighting off sickness (thanks Papa Nurgle), and a whole bunch of snow it just wasn't possible. That being said I did chop off a few heads in For Honor on PS4. Finally gave the game a go and it's got a lot of interesting game mechanics going on. Mostly just a brawl with various sharp objects but still takes a considerable amount of skill. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While snowbound this weekend I did manage to get the finishing touches down on the Pusgoyle, Ole Horny Snail, and yet more Plaguebearers. </div>

Really hoping to get a game in with some of these pestilent creeps soon though the next couple month involve a lot of traveling away from home. Which means no access to minis to paint nor build nor pal around with! Here's hoping I manage to be able to paint when I come back to it in a few weeks. </div>

Well not a problem exactly. Putting these two Pusgoyles together was pretty easy. Maybe the easiest kit I have assembled from GW in quite some time. They really improved on the regular fly minis I have already built. Those were quite fiddly, especially the wings. These wings were set in just one way and nicely secured. Still some work to do on the bases but I am waiting to finish assembling the other two Pusgoyles I purchased. The fly lords will not be stopped!</div>

More Gloomhaven in the bag. This time out we had to fight bears, imps, and earth demons. It was pretty tough but Sledghe is now level 3 and quite adept at smashing things. Especially hounds!</div>

Nurgle! New Nurgle minis are really fun and I am excited to add them to my miniature forces. I picked up the new book and a couple boxes of Pusgoyle Blightlords. Just the name alone is worth it!</div>

But before I can break them out of their plastic grey prisons I figured I should first finish building my horned gardener. A cool little model but I wanted to reduce/redirect the goofy eye powers and thus...</div>

In the background you can see a few new Plaguebearers including a slight conversion of the standard. More about those guys next time out. I also managed to get a game of Gloomhaven in last week. Our 7th and 8th adventures out and Sledghe the Inox Brute is almost level 3!</div>

Spent most of it camping in a cabin here in MI. Got out and enjoyed the cold and snow then spent more time getting warm back in the cabin. It was a relaxing and peaceful time but did little to get any painting done. </div>

Hello out there whoever still read this! It's been a couple months since my last update and not much has happened on the hobby front. After "finishing" The Greenboyz I didn't get much more painted in 2017. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

The last tabletop gaming I did was playing in 2017 was at Underworld Cup where I decided to quit playing Blood Bowl. </div>

Okay maybe not entirely... though I do feel the need to cut it out of my life for a bit. I had some of the worst luck I have ever had in that event and it was just an onslaught of misery. Lots of fun hanging out with my friends but the time spent in game was pretty dismal. Maybe we'll see things turn around after I attend Adepticon this year and play in the Stupor Bowl for the first (and last?) time. </div>

In what has become an annual tradition it is time to look back at the 2017 Hobby Resolutions and set some new ones for 2018. From last year...<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Play games more regularly <span style="color: red;">(I played games here and there. I wouldn't call it regular)</span></li>
<li>Paint at least one miniature to tabletop standard each week <span style="color: lime;">(I didn't paint one mini each week but I did paint well over 52 minis over the course of the year)</span></li>
<li>Don't buy more miniatures than you paint <span style="color: red;">(Yeah... not even close)</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
Alright so one out of three isn't so bad right? Now here is a list for this year!<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><b>Play games more regularly:</b><br />Games with <a href="http://furrypainting.blogspot.com/">Furry</a>, games at events, Gloomhaven almost weekly should have this covered.</li>
<li><b>Paint at least 52 minis to tabletop standard during the year:</b><br />And keep track of them! I feel like having a visual record of the work is important and helps motivate me (and possibly others) to get those minis painted!</li>
<li><b>Finish painting at least one Warhammer army:</b><br />Most likely this will be my Nurgle army. I have a great start on it. Just need to buckle down and paint some of the larger pieces and new stuff. </li>
<li><b>Don't buy more miniatures than you paint:</b><br />This will be tough but I have managed to hold off on many minis I already want. I don't think I will be able to go without picking up the CMON Hate minis going up on Kickstarter this month. And the new Nurgle stuff coming from GW will also get me for at least a few. </li>
<li><b>Update this blog weekly:</b><br />Should be easy with photos of painted minis and regular gaming right??</li>
</ul>
<div>
Of course working against all of these things are - life, work, school, band, reading, and drawing! Looks like I will have to be better about using my time (and watching less crappy TV). </div>

Okay well let us get right to it with a quick recap from Legends Cup.<br />

And there you have it! The Greenboyz had a final record of 0 wins, 1 tie, and 2 losses. Lost the first match vs Underworld Creepers. Came down to a failed GFI and tripping over the goal line for a tie. Second match was against the Bright Crusaders who pulled ahead early for a 2-0 lead but didn't count on the scrappy Goblins of the boyz coming back to tie it up 2-2 in the end. Last round was a brutal game against the Grudge Bearers who dominated the field and finally outscored a tie in the last turn of the game.<br />
<br />
Overall a really fun event I am look forward to the next one now that I have a bit more practice with the team and know the rules a bit better (like you can't throw a Pogoer... oops!).<br />
<br />
Hot on the heels of Legends Cup the boyz headed to Chicagoland for Chaos Cup 17. With the theme this year being GOBLINS it seemed like a no-brainer to bring a less than stellar version of The Greenboyz to the pitch for 6 games of Blood Bowl action.<br />

<br />
<b><u>Round 1 vs Khemri (Coach aenir)</u></b><br />
First game of the tournament started way up on table 10 or so versus... Khemri!? Got bashed around good and the fewer goblins on the pitch the easier it was to score for some reason. Managed to shut out the Khemri for a 2-0 win and secure goal #1 for The Greenboyz at Chaos Cup 17 - take home at least one win!<br />
<br />
<b><u>Round 2 vs Undead (Coach swerve)</u></b><br />
Playing on table 4 (what the) after round 1 The Greenboyz got utterly trounced by the Undead. Not even a close matchup from a player perspective. Ended in about 1 hour or less. Nice coach though! I look forward to playing a proper match sometime in the future.<br />

<br />
<b><u>Round 3 vs Skinks (Coach bluedaybreak)</u></b><br />
Finally a good match up for the boyz! At least on paper... this one turned into a snooze fest with the goblins failing every roll they made. It was a disaster but at least I was drinking heavily at this point! Ended up losing 0 to 3.<br />

<b><u>Round 4 vs Skaven (Coach gaddockteeg)</u></b><br />
Ending the day somewhere in the middle/back of the tables (mid 20's) the boyz ended up matched against a Skaven team. I fully expected this to be a blowout but the boyz surprised me by going head to head in a shoot out with Gutter Runners?! Failed a final TTM attempt to tie it up on the last turn of the second half and ended up losing 2 to 3. A really fun game!<br />

After a full day of Blood Bowl it was time to relax and unwind with a little SRG Supershow! Dr. Skullface made his XCW premiere and was promptly smacked down by everyone he went against (mostly by rolling Agility on the dice over and over and over again...). Luckily The Right managed to win the whole thing and bring home the tiny championship belt to Kalamazoo! Alright!! Then it was on to day 2 of Chaos Cup.<br />
<br />
<b><u>Round 5 vs Dwarves (Coach bigstraycat)</u></b><br />
Dwarves. How are they even down here on the bottom tables!? Broken. I don't remember much from this match outside of being very pissed off as my opponent decided to stall out after being in the lead by 2. Playing for all the marbles at the bottom tables... good game bro? Just to spite their beardy faces managed a TTM 1 turn score on the last turn to get on scoreboard. Lost 2 to 1.<br />
<br />
<b><u>Round 6 vs Dark Elves (Coach sargon)</u></b><br />
Deep into the bottom tables now last match is against... Dark Elves?! I mean wtf... can't I play at least one more fun team? The boyz failed all their rolls, coach hated himself and the game, probably was a dick to his opponent, and finally lost 3 to 1.<br />
<br />
Somewhere in the second day I put up The Greenboyz for the Chaotic Brush painting competition. I have entered every year since it began and each year I paint a new team for the event. And each year I received no awards. Now I don't think of myself or my painting as your traditional "painting competition winner" type but I also don't think of myself as a total shit painter. Here's the team.. you be the judge?<br />

Well surprisingly a couple things happened. #1 - I saw a few new teams and not the same teams which seem to be entered each year and continue to win awards.<br />

#2 and #3 I won two awards!? Fan Favorite (hell yes!) and Best Theme (Green!). I may not look like it in the photos but I was (and am) super excited to finally win my first miniatures painting awards! Heck it's only taken me 10+ years to get here. Thanks to everyone who voted for and appreciated The Greenboyz!

Things weren't going so well for The Greenboyz back in that season but they turned it around for the 2487-2488 season when they managed to crush every team in their way to the championship. What happened you ask? Well nobody really knows... but most everyone is pretty sure it had to do with cheating.</div>

Earlier this year I was invited to participate in a special kind of Blood Bowl event that focused on the Teams of Legend from Death Zone Season 2. While I wasn't planning on creating and painting a Goblin team when the chance came up to take on the role of Head Coach for The Greenboyz I just couldn't say no! (and it wasn't even because of the copious amounts of ale I was bribed with I swear)<br />
<br />
And so the construction of this mighty team of legend began with... bunch of shopping and chopping.<br />

My goals for the team were:<br />
1. Create a cohesive looking team of Goblins with various model ranges including GW.<br />
2. Show each of the "skills" for the player in a visual way with conversions.<br />
3. Have fun and embrace the Goblin aesthetic of The Greenboyz.<br />
<br />
I'm pretty sure I achieved all of these goals and more! Once the main body of the team was complete I began work on the pieces I wanted for the sidelines. One of these was very important... a way to represent The Greenboyz constant Fame +2. I chose to model stands full of drunk fans and also build an early Mark I version of "The Monstrous Mangler" - the most impressive secret weapon to ever exist, and ultimately the secret weapon which killed off the triumphant Greenboyz in the year 2492. In my version of this secret weapon the Goblins created a way to drive the actual stadium stands on to the pitch in the ultimate of pitch invasions!<br />

Still needed a few more sideline figures like Coaches, Cheerleaders, and the Apothecaries. I managed to get that done as well as the start of the team bus!<br />

With the added sideline complete it was time for a color scheme. Since The Greenboyz did not have official GW colors from the fluff (unlike most Teams of Legend) I worked up a color scheme that was really focused on both Goblins and the name Greenboyz. <span style="background-color: lime;">GREEN</span><br />
<br />

With my test model done I moved on to the massive painting project of all the fans in the stands, the sideline minis, and finally the team. I also managed to bodge up a couple more Goblins for when the stars of The Greenboyz want some back up (or get squashed by other Blood Bowl teams) and to fill up the roster.<br />

Next time... what happened at Legends Cup? Where else did The Greenboyz play (hint: it was Chaos Cup)? What is in store for the team moving forward? Check back here for more details Goblin fans!<br />

Catching up! My work and class schedule has thrown a wrench into blog posts and painting. While I haven't been posting photos of progress I have been working on a big summer project for an upcoming Blood Bowl event in September. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first Legends Cup! Participating with other coaches to build some of the teams of legend from Blood Bowl to play against one another in a theme heavy tournament. Participation in the event was done by invite only so I feel pretty lucky to have made the cut. I was assigned the Goblin team known as The Greenboyz. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Not much fluff out there for this team outside of a short mention in White Dwarf 101 and a little bit in the new Death Zone Season 2 supplement. I'll get more into the team fluff as things progress... in the meantime here is a test mini for a potential paint scheme of the team. The existing fluff makes no mention of the team color scheme so I have been giving freedom in that regard. </div>

For this scheme I wanted a medium/dark tones skin with a bright neon green cloth and blue additions. Then a bit of white and metal. I'm liking the 90's era GW paint scheme I ended up with but I am currently working on a slightly different direction (hint - it's lots of green). </div>

It's almost summer! Spending time finishing up my last class for the semester before I return again in the fall. It's been a bit grueling...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Speaking of grueling I haven't managed to get photos of any painted minis this week or last. I did paint some! I even played with them in a narrative campaign/tournament event last weekend.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lists were 500pts, no Monsters, Behemoths, Artillery, or Battalions/etc. Here is what I brought:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Allegiance: Chaos</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Plague Priest with Plague Censer (80)
- General</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lord of Plagues (100)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
10 x Plague Monks (70)
- Foetid Blades</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
10 x Plague Monks (70)
- Foetid Blades</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5 x Putrid Blightkings (180)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This was a tough list to build as I wanted a general Nurgle theme and the General used in this first event is the one we need to use for the future escalation games. That meant no Daemon Prince, or GUO, or Plague Furnace this time around. I decided after some playtesting to go with the Plague Priest as I can give him a mount at the next level. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Game 1 was vs the not-space-not-pirate Dwarfs. It was a nasty gunline. I was almost totally tabled by the end of Turn 2. I managed to get into close combat and kill one unit. Ended up with a Minor Loss and 2 models on the board. </div>

It was not a fun game. I had a hard time keeping my cool and staying positive as this is exactly the kind of beardy Warhammer bullshit I had hoped I was past dealing with in my life. Oh well.. I guess not. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Game 2 was a much cooler scenario that involved chopping down trees to build a bridge to the objectives across a river. I played against Khorne Bloodbound and thought... alright we're gonna do some fighting! Nope. Giant blob of reavers quickly made a bridge and teleported over it to hold the objective and keep my forces from making it across. </div>

In a last ditch effort I ran the unit of Blightkings across the river to kill the Slaughterpriest general and contest the objective. Of the 5 crossing the river only 1 made it to shore on a roll of 4+ each. Glorious battle commenced! Sixes were rolled and the Slaughterpriest and Blightking Champion were down to 1 wound each! Who would win!? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Nobody. Because the forces of Khorne retreated from the fight and stalled out to win. A lame ending for me and a Major Loss to close out the day.</div>

So my first AoS event experience was not a very positive one. We'll see if I continue in the event as the points increase. I'd like to but I also have a big Blood Bowl project under way for the first Legends Cup! More to come on that soon. </div>

Those who lurk on this blog may have noticed my absence the past three weeks. It's been an eventful time but the majority of the past month was taken up with my best friend Udo who was in post cancer-surgery recovery. After coming through fine from the surgery we got the bad news... the cancer had moved to his lungs. He had just days to live. I spent as much time as I could with him before having to say goodbye. I miss him terribly.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
We're getting through each day but it has been tough. We knew Udo was getting old (he would have turned 11 this year) but we weren't expecting to go from healthy to dead in just a few short days. If you have a hairy loved on of your own be sure and give them some pets and love. You won't regret it. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I began collecting and painting miniatures (and blogging here) just shortly after we got Udo as a puppy. It's the end of an era! And while I will be happy to not have his long hair stuck in each and every mini I paint or assemble I would gladly trade that it for some more time laying around the house together. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Spent time after Udo's passing rearranging the house. Flip flopped our bedroom and studio space and moved all of the miniature and gaming things into the studio. It's not a massive space but it now has all of my art supplies, PC, and minis in one place. I'm hoping it will lead to massive bouts of creativity! So far it hasn't but I think that is to be expected. </div>

These are some grunts. They will likely get torn apart by mutants, cannibals, or other thrifty wasteland survivors. But at least they will do it in style!!<br />

This time out we have another Nurgle Chaos Warrior looking for love and hugs. And heads. I'm happy enough with the look to keep it going on the remaining 14 minis at this point. </div>

I mean it has been spring for some time but it's warm and the sun is out and things are growing. Spent some time this week working on a few landscaping projects. They take a lot more physical labor than the terrain landscape projects littering my hobby room. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Didn't manage to spend much time painting minis as I was working on my final projects for the semester. Here's a peak at a WIP multimedia drawing:</div>

Went for the slightly Fallout look. Probably too shiny but I figured those with the tech type stuff try to keep it looking good (and working). I might muck them up a bit still. </div>

Decided to go for the classic gross greens and browns for my rats. Partly so they will fit in with the Nurgle Daemons and Chaos force I am also building up. I might go for a brighter bruised purple look for the Plague Priest characters... I haven't given their backstory much of any thought.</div>

I wanted a dirty look but not too over the top with gross. I also wanted to add a bit of lighter color to get the miniatures to pop out. Didn't take too long and looks pretty good I think. Happy to get input!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Had the chance to put them on the table yesterday and got a couple quick AoS 500pt games in with Furry. Mostly just learning our units and the game for an upcoming escalation/narrative campaign to be held this summer at the FLGS. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My list was:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lord of Plagues (General)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Chaos Warriors w/ Mark of Nurgle and Greatblades/Greatweapons x 10</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Plague Drones x 3</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Going in to the game I wanted to see how the fast moving Drones would fare, how the Chaos Warriors would stack up against a unit of 5 Blightkings (same cost), and if the Lord was worth taking as my General over a magic using Hero. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
First game as a capture and hold objective scenario. I sent the Plague Drones up to claim the middle objective and they were quickly met and engaged by Furry's Lord on Dracoth.</div>

After taking out the Dracoth mounted enemy the remaining flies were met by the Lord of Plagues who decided to take the fight to the Sigmarites inbound on their position. </div>

Charging in the Lord of Plagues made short work of the followers of Sigmar. Even with just 3 attacks the Rend -1 and D3 damage made short work of them. He's a gross little Ogre!</div>

Leaving the terrain the same we set up for game 2 which was another objective capture and hold type scenario. This time I wanted to get the Chaos Warriors into combat to see what they were made of!</div>

Back in the middle a mighty scrum kicked up with the Plague Drones taking on the Lord of Dracoth again and this time it looked like they might die to the razor sharp claws of the beast... though a couple lucky saves kept them in the game. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Meanwhile everyone else piled up below them to hit each other to death. Swinging a mighty 20 times with their Greatblades the Nurgle Warriors dealt 10 wound though the Sigmarites managed to save against almost all of them even with the Rend -1. The Lord of Plagues kicked the rest of them down and the game was won.</div>

I had fun painting these squirmy old slug monsters. I hope they perform well on the table as they slime my enemies....<br />
<br />
Speaking of performing well... it's that time again! Time for <a href="http://zlurpeebowl.com/Forums/viewforum.php?f=247">Dog Bowl</a>! This is the 5th year I have run this event with Furry and if it's like every other year it will be a great time. I happy coaches seem to enjoy the "underdog" boosting rules for the tournament and I am happy to see them playing teams that often get no love in the "competitive" scene.<br />

A stressful week! Spent most of it sick and very tired. After much rest I went back to work... or tried to before I got a flat tire on my car!! Argh!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Needless to say I got very little done of the hobby front. But I did manage to get one Dwarf adventurer painted!! Here's Boozehammer 2.0</div>

Overall I like the looks of them. I did add a few GW bits here and there to help tie them in more with the rest of my Nurgle forces. The kits were not easy to put together and have legs, torso, arms x 2, head, and then weapons. It was very challenging to get the two handed weapons lined up with the arms and much swearing was done in the process. </div>

<b>Dark Horse Brewing Company - CoffPA </b><br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Beer Type:</b> American IPA - 6.50% ABV<br />
<br />
<b>Appearance:</b> Dark Horse style (modern era) artwork on the label here. A crooked tree and some coffee beans. Beer is a dirty potato water color and kinda hazy with a thin off-white head.<br />
<b><br />Smell:</b> I can smell a lot of malt and some coffee with just a bit of hops.<br />
<b><br />First Drink:</b> Coffee up front is quickly surpassed by pine and citrus hops but then mellows out to a nice roasted malt/coffee finish.<br />
<b><br />Mouthfeel:</b> Medium body with a bit prickly carbonation.<br />
<b><br />Last Drink:</b> Bitter flavors coming out now in the coffee/dark malt roast. Also something a bit orange?<br />
<b><br />Drinkability:</b> I really wasn't sure what to expect of this beer and I am pleasantly surprised! I could have a few of these no problem.<br />
<b><br />Notes:</b> A limited edition beer that was a part of their IPA 12 pack. Not sure how often this one gets brewed.<br />
<b><br />Verdict: </b>4 out of 5. Nice complex flavors with both coffee and IPA touches. </div>

This week was spring break. I had hoped to get lots of painting done but it turned out to be a very busy week of work and my evenings filled up with other activities. I managed to get a little bit of painting done but it was just finishing up some Nurgle models I had yet to complete. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's the first day of Spring and this lot is bringing things back to life... in the Nurgle way!</div>

And a group shot just for fun. They look gross, funny, and monstrous which is pretty much exactly what I wanted. The bases are not 100% finished and I have yet to add the final goo and gore which will come after I seal them up. Thinking about playing some form of Nurgle in a local escalation/narrative campaign in the works so I figured it was time to crank these guys out.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Arcadia Ales - Mango Suprise IPA</b><br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Beer Type:</b> American IPA - 7.00% ABV<br />
<br />
<b>Appearance:</b> Classic Arcadia (new) art on the bottle with a tasty looking mango on it. Beer pours a light golden/straw color with a white lacy head.<br />
<b><br />Smell:</b> Soapy mango chutney? Does not smell like an IPA.<br />
<b><br />First Drink:</b> Initial taste is more like an IPA with hops but it is quickly followed by tropical flavors of mango, pineapple, and citrus.<br />
<b><br />Mouthfeel:</b> Medium bodied and a bit sticky. Good carbonation.<br />
<b><br />Last Drink:</b> More sweet tropical flavors and a very bitter finish.<br />
<b><br />Drinkability:</b> I think these tropical flavored beers are the current trend. Kind of like sodas from the late 80's/early 90's. It's okay but gets old.<br />
<b><br />Notes:</b> Not a bad beer though I am not sure why they spell suprise without the additional "r"<br />
<b><br />Verdict: </b>3.5 out of 5. Good for one or two but outlasts its welcome beyond that. </div>
