    I know it's not as sexy as GJG but the latest batch of Wake Up! should be going on tonight or tomorrow night at the Herm.

    Not until a release I'd think. I didn't ask. Maybe for GJG and Neighborhood pickups?

    nice, cant wait to try it. Mouthfeel is a big thing i look for in a stout. thin mouthfeel can really kill it for me. but over the top, underattenuated can destroy it, too. Im glad everyone is enjoying it going to try it this Thursday.

    I feel like the extra couple percentage points of ABV really helped the body of this batch of GJG. It's just thick, rich, velvety goodness.

    Last year's GJG to compare to this year's. Wake Up on tap tasting great.

    Somehow ended up with 8 bottles of GJG. My link worked on Friday, then I received an email saying the link was no good, so I bought 3 on Saturday, and then picked up all 8 of them today. Hopefully these will ease the pain of the Parabajava clusterfuck.

    Parabajava clusterfuck? Not in Paso Robles. I got there about 90 minutes before the release and picked my allotment easily-peasily, about a half-hour wait once the doors opened.

    Looking forward to picking up my GJG and doing a side-by-side with Parabajava.

    I'm a hardcore hpb fanboy, but I think a parabajava v gjg batch 2 might be a one sided fight. Tho I hope I'm proven wrong.

    Why don't we wait until BA GJG before we start comparing it with BA coffee stouts...?

    Yeah why would we be comparing this to Parabajava?
