    I'd say it's more accurate to say twitter suggests it could be as soon as Friday depending on Jbros. Hit distro from his prospective might mean hand it off to Jbros. Cheers!

    Hopefully Friday though! Des Moines will probably get it Friday and CB not until Tuesday :slight_frown:

    How long will this last on the shelves and at the brewery? Two weeks?

    Maybe a week at the brewery, though they are doing case limits, so could go quicker. Probably won't last a day or two once it hits distro shelves.

    Had some Sosus last night, and it was amazing... Worth the trip for sure.

    Doing a side-by-side with Pompeii this weekend just for kicks. They have quite a few bombers of that as well still. I think they were bottled on 3/29 or somewhere around there.

    The 3/29 Pompeii was fantastic!

    Hell, it still is. Pompeii and Sosus hold up as well under cold storage conditions as any IPAs/IIPAs that I've had.

    If you are hitting the TG taproom, it looks like they released a new beer called Oracle Des Saisons brewed by Chris Flenker only on draft. First TG Saison.

    New DIPA on tap, 1 growler per day limit. No bottles. Going down tomorrow afternoon if anyone wants to meet up for a share.

    Scorpius Morchella DIPA is indeed on tap as of this afternoon. 1 growler per person. Had a pour of it and the Saison they have on, and bought a growler of Scorpius and case of Sosus to go. Both are awesome. Scorpius is a lot of Aussie/NZ hops and some American, named from a constellation you can only see in the Southern Hemisphere or something (Scorpius). Not sure what Morchella comes from, but I heard Mike talking about it in the taproom this late afternoon. I got the 3rd growler pour from the same keg (after Mike and Clark got their pours) in the fridge right now. So so fruity and delicious. Mine had an awesome haze to it, too. The Sosus is awesome too!
