    I've got about half a pound in my freezer, I'm sure that will be enough, right?

    New haven county will be getting g-bot in the next two weeks from what the distributor told me.

    Great news on the Supernaut! Any sense on how much was made compared to FBD?

    Anyone seen G Bot in Fairfield County this week? Last shipment did not make it up Ridgefield / Danbury way. I will be down Norwalk way tomorrow and curious if any is around down there.

    Ed, others; saw & purchased the most recent batch at 99 bottles recently. I did not see any at TW, although they have 668. (and it`s always nice to spend $ at a great independent shop) :slight_smile:

    Supernaut is, what, the all Mosaic IPA?

    It's all Mosaic, but a slightly different beer than the Mosaic IPA they poured at the tap takeover. They toned down the ABV a bit (5.8% maybe?) so it should be somewhere in between Galaxy Pale Ale and FBD in terms of intensity. Based on the handful of Mosaic-hopped beers I've had (not to mention the magic that NEBCO regular works with hops in general), I'm sure it'll be outstanding.

    So what are we thinking, are we waiting until Friday or has anyone heard it will be out earlier than that?

    What time do they open on Friday? I'm on my way up to Boston and will be in that area around 11.

    Weekdays they're usually open 11 - 6, I think.

    That's what their twitter says as of 15 min ago. Anyone know how much they made? Do we expect this to last to the weekend?

    Yep per their twitter feed:

    "Available for growler fills today. Coup Beans coffee oatmeal stout, 668, Sea Hag, Supernaut IPA."

    I think it should last till the weekend and im guessing a price point of $10 a growler...
