    Not yet. Got excited when the normal email came through this afternoon. But alas, I will settle for two of my favorite PWs on the same weekend release. And very interested in the new Galactic Golden Ale as well.

    This is based on pure conjecture, but believe we'll have some BA beers before DLD. (Or if they're mean, ON that Saturday).

    Would make from some great photo ops for the BA beers to be in the bottle share photos.

    Not a bad guess. I was actually thinking this evening that they will hit right before or during CCBW.

    speaking of CCBW, i'm hoping PW does another takeover at Emporium. i went last year and loved a bunch of the stuff they tapped. i was reminded of pineapple Lizard King recently and how good it was because someone mentioned it in another thread.

    I missed this last year and really want to go. I keep checking the CCBW site for event updates.

    Guppy was great, but Galaxy Wolf was pine on pine on pine. I couldn't finish it alone it was so piney. I agree a little piney is good, but this was just overload.

    dang, I think I'm the only one that liked Galaxy Wolf but I'm super into pine and being blasted by pine.

    Sorry to bother. Where is Pipeworks can/bottle release schedule? I thought they had a week to week release schedule on their site?

    their (somewhat) weekly newsletter lists whats "coming down the pipeline". also check their social media accounts as they're active and post new and upcoming releases.

    Also on the website if you go under Dojo it lists what's currently avaailble & what's coming out that week. All releases are on Saturdays at the Dojo

    I'm not a fan of mango guppy... something skunky about it. I don't have a better way to describe it.

    PW is starting to lose me tbh

    Tried the Mango Guppy and when cold it just wasn't there. Even at a moderate temp it was lacking. It almost has to get to room temperature to be at its optimal flavor profile. I give them props for trying as I want to see more sessionable beers from them. Good first attempt, I think there is some room to improve it. I'd like more of a West Coast IPA with mango, this struck me as a traditional English IPA with Mango.

    Anyone try Emerald Grouper yet? Does it have that same tartness that's turning some of us off the fish series?

    There is no fruit added to EG as those others have so I would think likely not.

    Had Emerald Grouper yesterday. No tartness at all to my palate. Pretty dank. I really really liked it. Keep in my mind, this year is my first time tasting all of these fish series, so I have nothing to go off of previously.

    Did anybody pick mango up from the dojo this past weekend, I think they canned a newer batch and just wondering the dates.

    Hey there. I have a question about Saturdays at the Dojo. I'll be in town just for this coming weekend and I'd like to stop by and pick up some fresh beer, but I don't really have time to stand in line. Especially, since it looks like rain this coming Saturday.

    Anyway, how quickly can I expect to get in and out around 11am?

    Thanks!

    Unless they have BA stuff, the last time I went I was in and out in like 2 minutes.

    What he ^ said. The only line is 1 or 2 people and a cat.
