    That was the only beer they weren't filling at OH on Sunday. I can't speak to it being on around the city, but I hope so.

    No kegs distributed I'm fairly positive.

    I think SGE and BD would have been a perfect combo in cans with summer coming!

    At least they're canning a session in the right season this time around...

    No cans of Grits left according to one of the gentlemen behind the bar. No layups is tasting fantastic though

    I could be in the minority but does anyone else feel like their beers taste different in can vs draft. I feel like no lay up's was good but nothing incredibly special. "!" Was my favorite in recent memory that stood out

    Is city slickers on for fills? Was hard to tell from the picture they posted.

    Yes. Tasting nice from the tap.

    Very cool to see City Slickers return.

    Definitely want to echo what a few have said about No Lay Ups. Incredible beer and dangerously drinkable. Up there with 2nd Anniversary in my opinion.

    I really hope we see the return of single hop Nelson or Amarillo at some point this summer.

    Anyone else feel like this recent batch of Suparrilo is incredibly malty? Not getting tons of hops from these cans. Telectroscopic cans however, have really hit their stride. Incredibly delicious.

    I had one earlier and actually enjoyed the slight sweetness. That said, I only had the 2nd batch on tap and really prefer the single hop version. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Suparillo isn't a single hop? At least in the sense that Kane and OH use?

    Suparillo tastes kind of young and messy IMO - I am hoping it will change because I enjoyed b1 a lot. Amarillo IPA was one of my absolute favorites, too.

    I think @cebern is stating that he prefers OH Amarillo to Suparillo (i.e. single > double)

    Ah, I got hung up on single hop vs single IPA. Thanks. And I agree, at least this far - not ready to count out the coolest labeled beer OH makes for another week or two

    Had Table Beer last night, thought it was pretty great. Would definitely pick up another bottle if I see it again.

    No layups is tasting amazing. Bummer that it's draft only but oh well. Pretty stacked board down at the brewery at the moment.

    Agreeing with the senitment in here regarding Suparillo. While it's certainly not a bad beer, it's definitely the dud of the release.

    Good to know. I've seen it a few places. I'll bite.

    Maybe let it sit a week or two? I loved it the first time it came out but haven't opened any of the cans from this release yet.

    I had one last night and it already tasted better than day 1. I have faith.
