    Picked up mine in the Boston area for $8.50. This was a much better price than I had feared and doesn't seem that bad compared to others. Damn good beer too.

    I just had my first "Enjoy By IPA" this weekend. I thought it was delicious, the citrus and floral flavors took the edge off of what could have been overwhelming bitterness for an enjoyable DIPA.

    I found it locally for $6.50--and it was worth it. I don't think it is over-hyped, it is just well-marketed.

    Only in MD would the distribution of a beer with a 1 month shelf life be delayed a week.

    This batch isn't quite as good as the previous rounds -- I get a lot less tropical fruit and more straight up lemon and citrus. Either they used a slightly different hop profile (more Calypso?) or the tropical side is the very first to go.

    Just picked up a few in Cleveland for $7.69 per. Had 1 last night and even with a bit of onion taste it was Delish. So worth the money. There are so many shit beers out there in bombers that cost more...

    it's honestly amazing. I've been to three distributors and none have a clue.

    Got three bombers at Whole Foods-Mason last Friday - $6.99 each. A nice catch!

    When you start getting Deschutes in Florida, Hop Henge might have a thing or two to say about that...

    Oops... I forgot to change my location when I moved back to NC, but your point still remains given that I can't get Deschutes here either... Looks like I will have to get my hands on some... When I was in Portland I was too busy drinking Black Butte XXIV, The Abyss, and goodies form other breweries that I neglected the Hop Henge.

    I'd say "best north-of-9% IIPA for the price." There's plenty of amazing beers in that 7.5-8.5% range that are much better priced. Sucks, PtE, & Citra come to mind, but the list goes on and on...

    Valid...very valid. I would agree with your analysis 100%.

    The first and second batches were excellent. I woke up on Monday morning from a nightmare where this beer tasted watery, had weak bitterness and very little hop flavor. Drank one of my 4.01.13s last night... nope, still excellent.

    Just picked up 4 bottles at Perfect Pour, 39.00 total for all 4. Arrived today and at 8:15 they had 3 cases left. Jasons and Northridge on same route and probably got theirs today as well. Enjoyed a couple on tap at Friscos Friday night and it was excellant, though keg is probably kicked by now. Max's is tapping their keg at 5:00 Thursday. Not sure when other bars are tapping their keg, but all the kegs have been delivered.
