    5. Equinox
    6. Citra
    7. Hop Showers

    Good news 3 months from now that list could completely different as OH makes new stuff :slight_smile:! Liked Hop Showers when I first had it, but as some of their newer beers came on it got knocked down the list.

    Mosaic has been the winner for me.

    Mosaic and AGE are the top two for me. If the Nelson cans were anything like the first batch that was on draft it would be Nelson #1 by a mile. Hopefully next time around it's back to normal

    Small Green is a new recipe this time around. Really juicy stuff and on the cheaper side for growler fills. Drink up! Hup Hup Hup! also tasting great.

    otherhalfnyc: New beers in the tasting room this weekend! All the Hip Hops Imperial IPA brewed with Motueka, Citra, Simcoe, Lemondrop, Mosaic, and Azacca. It's 9.5% abv, 100 ibu's and very limited. The second beer is a session version of All Green Everything, Small Green Everything. It's 4.6% abv, 55 ibu's and has all the same hops as AGE. Available in glass and growler.

    imo...Carton 077 > Hop Showers....AGE is the #1 reason to go to OH for cans

    For those that live in Manhattan. How are you going to releases and bringing cases back? Id like to attend a release but getting it back must be a real pain.

    bring a few strong tote bag type things.

    I'll spare you the sarcastic responses I was considering including:

    1. you carry them
    2. hire a helicopter to land in McDonalds and ferry you back to your magical island
    3. little red wagon
    4. via home depot day laborer
    5. i've never actually seen anyone get cans back to manhattan alive
