    Yep. Same here. They are the ones who told me to use it, so I linked it here. Don't kill the messenger!

    I've been told by a few friends in the know that some of the usual beer suspects in NYC are expecting to receive it, but obviously, no way to confirm until it actually shows up.

    Hopefully if it does it doesn't sit in the warehouses.

    $10.99 a 6er in the Santa Cruz area. This was my first time drinking Born Yesterday. It doesn't quite live up to the hype (for me) but still a very delicious fresh hopped IPA. I'm glad the ABV is 6.5 as it still is quite sweet.

    last year was mosaic, amarillo, and equinox.

    Although it did kind of have that zombie dust feel to it, and I was surprised to read these hops when i finally looked at the bottle to learn what was in it. My friend also said it reminded him of the Alesmith 394 pale ale and thats a citra beer as well

    It just started hitting retail in Phoenix today. I'm sure it'll be down to you guys soon, if not already there.

    Just picked up a 6er from my local in Northern Virginia. All I want is consistent, easy access to a beer that tastes and smells exactly like this.

    Picked up a sixer today and cracked one open tonight.

    Have to say, hands down the best wet hop ale i've ever had. Incredible stuff.

    Kudos as well to Lagunitas to obviously making it a point to get this on shelves as quick as possible. This says it was bottled two days ago.

    A great beer for the price. Didn't taste as amazing as last year's 7.5% version but that could be my fickle memory.

    My sentiments exactly. Last year it was breathtaking, and easily in a league of its own among the FH beers I tried. This year, it's "merely" the best--still winning the annual title, but by a slightly less resounding margin. Memory always plays a role, of course, along with other subjective factors and certain objective ones (different hops, different recipe, etc...?). But, for the price, quality, and national delivery logistics, can anything else really compete with this?
