    Thanks. I know the parabola this year at wf was more than the bravo had been both in 12 oz. I was worried they started gouging the Grimm cans as well.

    There was still about half a case of cans a moment ago. They're finally enforcing limits now

    Bryant park wf limit 2 cans pp. They have 6 left. 1 bottle each pp. They have all 3 bottles. They only had a few left though. They're all at the cheese counter. Maybe they'll re-stock later. None are out on the floor in the cooler.

    Last night, the guy made a comment about having to go "downstairs" to get more because the cheese counter supply was running low---so they may have more than is in the case.

    I've had to go "downstairs" on many a beer guy in order to secure some Grimm. Maybe it was a hint of some sort - if so sounds like a missed opportunity.

    picked up halftone and liquid crystal around 7p today, only cans were running low. I used to strike out constantly for cans at this time last year on days where it would hit stores -wonder if can allocations per site are going up or it's just a shift in places I'm going to (find myself going east way more).

    drinking mango pop rn and gotta say mango pop is my fav pop. there's something about the berliner treatment that brings out the green mango elements and balances nicely with everything else going on in the beer. if peach pop becomes a thing I may need to revise that thinking.

    rainbow dome is out of control. what Grimm is teaching me is that the amount of oak influence that would ruin some wine is perfectly integrated in these beers that have so much interesting stuff going on. reading reviews on this site and others is confusing because it's like 50/50 "pure apricot juice" vs. "where's the apricot" which really just says to me that people have a variable/subjective sense for what the target apricot flavor profile is. I assume here they are not going for magic hat #9. it seems like RD is Grimm house hopped sour magic style with a bunch of apricot fruit (not juice or dried apricot taste). apricot rebus for me was the fruit juice bomb, but still balanced because iirc it was more bretty.
