I'd seen a large bottle of Sorachi Ace in a local pub but it was like £30 or some shit so I never bothered. They do small bottles now and I quite like it - definitely prefer it to most other saisons I've tried.
I've not had Local 1. I had Local 2 but it was stupid gassy and left half of the bottle on the table. Need to find where to get hold of their special brews. Lots of them are draught only available in the US.
Apparently it was the first release of Quinta in the UK. I've grabbed a bottle and will probably leave it in my "don't feckin' touch" collection.

Had a MTB with Brooklyn last night. Wasn't the brewer but Rachael I think UK brand manager. She was good - delivered an interesting history of the brewery while we sampled a few of their core beers and some specials. Their lovely Lager, really enjoyed their Sorachi Ace, Brown, East IPA, American Ale, awesome Chocolate Stout and this beast: http://brooklynbrewery.com/brooklyn-beers/bqe/quintaceratops
