    I dunno but they said they would be releasing more info soon, back when they first announced ticket sales. Been patiently waiting...

    On another note, this trend of beer events selling tickets long before releasing any actual information is getting kind of annoying.

    Whats annoying is not being able to get tickets to stuff

    I feel like I never hear anything about Half Acre these days. It seems like Pipeworks and Revolution are drowning them out.

    I'd rather have Anti-hero IPA and Ninja/Unicorn over Daisy Cutter any day. I only really get excited about Galactic Double Daisy.....especially when they go with 16oz cans instead of bombers.

    Never had Ninja vs Unicorn but I definitely prefer Daisy Cutter over Anti Hero

    I can pick up Anti Hero anywhere out by me but no Daisy Cutter

    I'm also disappointed because they changed the recipe on my favorite beer.

    Daly Double was an incredible DIPA, among the best I had last year. Then this year they tweaked the malt bill on the new "Space IPA", and it's just not the same beer.

    it's definitely coming back during CCBW - now just to see if it's keg only, or in bombers or cans as well.

    Half Acre always throws a great party. I would guess a random Cigar City keg, some random Short's beers, and lots of fun. I am going to get white boy wasted.

    Daisy Cutter is a pale ale, Anti-Hero is an IPA, and NvU is an IIPA. You're not really comparing the same things.

    it's very unlikely that it will happen.

    it's made in memory of one of their good friends who passed away and used to hang out at the brewery. this way they'll always be around the brewery.

    more on that and a ton of great info about how HA got started in this hour long interview.
