    While I did enjoy Double Moonage, I felt it was just a tad boozier than what I would have wanted.

    How about that Green Knuckle though? (I agree on the Moonage... tasty but I'd prefer it as a single IPA or pale)

    Enjoyed it, but my favorite since I've moved into the area has been Wide Rainbows. I really hope they re-brew it because it was outstanding.

    Had my first Cellarmaker visit and wide rainbows was by far my favorite. Drank many pints and brought back two growlers full.

    As far as Hazy/NE IPAs go I'd hold that above any of the Monkish offerings I've had so far.

    Yup, Wide Rainbows was ridiculously good. I'm upset at myself for having gotten only 1 growler fill. I meant to go back for more, but got busy and by the time I was able to make it back, it was replaced by one of the beers that were released last week.

    This year's Green Knuckle is great. A lot of raw fresh Simcoe coming through and the Riwaka plays well with the wet Simcoe. I liked last years (fresh Citra) slightly better. Those of you pining for an APA version of Moonage are in luck...it shouldn't be too long before regular Moonage gets brewed again.

    Wow that is a whopper of an Instagram press release :grimacing:

    Hoping Highway is better this batch than the last time I had it. And quite excited for the Anniversary offerings.

    Anyone make it out there yet? This a pretty big batch? I didn't see that on their on instagram post, though 6pp hopefully lasts a little while.

    Just came back, didn't ask about batch size, but looked like a decent bunch still left. The bottle line was 2 deep, but inside was more packed than the last release at a comparable time.

    Was able to pick up a couple bottles of Danker Zone last night. Might still be some left today.

    Double Dobis and Neon Nights were off the hook. I was expecting to enjoy vanilla vastness a bit more but it might be my thoughts on vanilla beers in general.

    Just got back, Neon Nights was great I could see through Double Dobis. Interesting DD is one of their most popular brews and one of their most inconsistent. Casked Coffee And Cigs on graham crackers and marshmallows, Angelic Vastness of Space and Lost Wisdom were on today.

    Smores Coffee and Cigs was at 10% I believe, and it was spectacular. Not too sweet, but that vanilla sweetness works with the base beer. Definitely 1 of my favorite variants.

    It's kinda crazy too, coz I got there around 6 and it was still on. That was actually the first cask ever got to try from CM, and I've been going there plenty of times.

    Double dobis was pineapple good, but lacking that hazy sweetness that rounds the beer. Don't get me wrong, still good, but just not the same as the last batch. I just had those 2 last night, and was happy. Might go back today for the shirt. Cheers guys!
