    I think you're right. It's good news for people that live closer to Tired Hands though.

    I'm assuming Thursday release at this point? Maybe the Sunday cans pushed everything back a day.

    Thursday would mean a snow day release? All the teachers will be out in force.

    I am wiling to accept QC.

    Would you say the same concerning Tired Hands?

    Cheers to QC!

    Of course, they could use it with HopHands. On the other Hand (get it?) some of these issues being pointed to are just personal taste issues IMO. Someone not liking a beer does not a QC problem make.

    I have had a half dozen (or more) Tired Hands beers in 2016 that suffered from diacetyl issues. This is not a "personal taste" issue in this regard. It is a matter of a technical brewing flaw.

    Cheers!

    Which ones other than HopHands have you experienced this with? I've noticed a few batches of HopHands that seemed off to me, but don't recall an issue with others. For what it's worth, storing the can upside down/shaking/rolling seemed to help.

    It was a variety of beers; HopHands and others. They were draft beers.

    I have gotten into the practice of requesting sample pours before ordering a pint.

    Cheers!

    I saw the pic of the beer you were drinking yesterday and it looked like some classic Tired Hands Snow Globe big flakes.

    Will be up for MD/St Joes lacrosse game on Tuesday, Vday. Any advice? Tips? Does Tired Hands do Crowlers or just Growlers? I guess just depends on what day they release cans?

    No Crowlers. What exactly are you looking for tips and advice on?

    Ha, not sure. If can releases they would be at the Fermentaria? Unfortunately may be a tight window so probably just gonna have to get lucky. Hoping for a Vday release but probably long lines if so.
