    I can confirm this. It's really good. If you remake Galaxy Unicorn I'll let you know which of the two is my favorite Pipeworks IPA so far (it's been a while).

    Simcoe and Galaxy are my (gerrit's) two favorites of our IPAs... although BJ crafted Citra in my honor (since I wanted something a bit higher FG and less pale).

    Fresh Galaxy hops should be here in October with plentiful batches coming hence forth.

    not to drudge up old memories but was the cause of the blue cheese blueberry berliner weiss in the nose solved? I noticed a similar nose (albiet way slight) in the off color cherry berliner weiss?

    Does anyone know if Pipeworks is still planning on canning, when, and which beers? Also, are they doing 4 packs or 6 packs?

    September 3, 2013 Update

    This week we hopped in the way-back machine and whipped up a batch of Last Kiss. We brew this Wee Heavy with Fenugreek and Vanilla beans to underline the sweet maple notes of this malt driven beer. It's fantastic fresh but it is also a great candidate for prolonged slumber in the back of you 55 degree closet. $10.99, 22oz, 9.5% ABV

    We also brewed up another batch of MariLime Law, our collaboration double IPA with Tired Hand Brewing out of Pennsylvania. This DIPA is about as juicy as they come. Not just because we used Simcoe, Sorachi Ace and Amarillo but because there's about 10 gallons of fresh lime juice in each batch. It is the ideal choice for the last few hot days left this year. $9.99, 22oz, 8% ABV

    Last Kiss and MariLime Law are available for pick up at both Binny's Lincoln Park and West Lakeview Liquors immediately.

    Anyone know off-hand what the closest store to the IN border/FFF that sells Pipeworks is?

    (I know the list of stores is on their site, but I'm not good with burbs, and it is taking forever to sift through them)

    Orland Park Binnys probably closest per mile, but south loop binnys via skyway (with minimal traffic) might be closest per time.

    I was at West Lake about 9 days ago, and there were still about 6-7 bottles of Orange Truffle sitting in the front window behind the counter. Not out on the shelves though.

    Any chance of a pumpkin abduction coming? That would be awesome! Saint Arnold's Pumkinator is delicious, so I can only imagine what pumpkin could do to abduction :slight_smile:

    Just opened a bottle of the latest Simcoe...holly shit, this is the best IPA you guys have made to date.

    Yes, I do realize that everybody has a raging hardon for Citra hops at the moment, but this beer far outshines any previous batch of Citra Ninja.

    Pro Tip: Buy Batch 194/196 Simcoe Ninja, enjoy immediately, or trade right away to others that will appreciate the awesomeness.

    P.S., I know there was a lot of issues with Citra 177, and contrary to most peoples responses, my bottle was carbonated and delicious.
