    @Grimm_Artisanal_Ales thoroughly enjoyed rainbow dome both on tap and from the bottle. Keep em coming.

    I was quoting this to ask you what I could look forward to when I arrive to NYC in 2 weeks, but my answer came below.

    Dive Bar always has good stuff on tap, but I have lost faith in their line cleanliness.

    Awesome.

    My question as well! Looks like we got an answer and great timing for me, I hope.

    Yeah, I'm in the UWS and hit up all 3 Dive Bar locations but have to agree with you. They get great stuff and it's sweet that it's a short walk. I've now taken to walking further up Broadway to hit up Beer hall or whatever it's called at 106th and Broadway that used to be a sketchy bar.

    Please brew Tesseract 3.0! Tesseract IPA is 100/100.... This beer needs more attention!!!! Brew more and can. Will you consider using a mobile canning team?

    Amazing!

    I really hope the shops in NYC treat the cans the right way and store them in refrigerated space.

    Grimm: I wish you two luck at finding an amazing place in the NYC area.

    Always a little late to that party but just popped my first bottle of Rainbow Dome. @Grimm_Artisanal_Ales your description was perfect--getting a ton of that stone fruit/tartness that I was missing in Rainbow in Curved Air. I think the dry hop work incredibly well with the apricots.

    As happy as I am, the timing is kinda tough with cans being released in a few weeks haha

    1. Grimm Artisanal Ales Lambo Door
    City: Brooklyn, NY
    ABV: 8%
    The verdict: Here we are—the road of 115 double IPAs led us to this point, and to this revelation: Grimm Artisanal Ales has emerged as the clear “Maine Beer Co.” of this tasting. A brewery that none of us in the room had ever even tasted before produced the #1 and #4 beers in a 115-beer field. That’s absurd. And that doesn’t happen by chance, not in a million years.

    Lambo Door, like the earlier Tesseract, is a pretty unabashed hop-bomb, but one that revels in juicy hop deliciousness rather than any sort of intensive bitterness. Its aroma leaps from the bottle when you crack the top like some kind of hop genie desperate to be free. Searching through the score sheets, it’s interesting to see the variety of different fruity hop descriptors people throw at it. “Citrus,” obviously. “Tropical,” certainly. But then it gets more eclectic and specific. Pineapple. Melon. “Red berries.” “White peach.” Everyone finds themselves tasting something different in Lambo Door, and everyone independently agrees that whatever they’re tasting is absolutely delicious.

    Grimm Artisanal Ales is currently releasing its beers in the most limited means imaginable, which honestly disappoints us to no end. We want more of this beer, and more of Tesseract. We want an unlimited supply. As is, Grimm is nomadically brewing beers like this once, with no guarantee they’ll ever exist again. And if that’s what comes to pass, it would be a crime. Because this is one of the most purely delicious hoppy beers we’ve ever come across, and far more people will need to experience it before it gets anything close to the acclaim it deserves.

    Thought this deserved to be in the thread itself :wink:

    Just tried my first bottle from them and man was I delighted. Rainbow dome was awesome. I'm not one for wild ales but this was so refreshing. Just the right amount of tartness for me while the apricots and oak combined for some straight deliciousness. Need to buy more!

    this might not be the best place to ask but here goes nothing. @Grimm_Artisanal_Ales

    I ordered from the online Grimm shop 10 days ago and have yet to receive any notice that the order has shipped. Is this uncommon? I don't see any other way to contact Grimm or Square. The order was for the beautiful pair of glasses. Thanks Guys!
