Civil Society - Spring - 2017

How do Pulp and Fresh compare to some of there other non regular release IPAs and DIPAs (I know Pulp is technically a wheat).

 

I think they are easily two of their best. Fresh is their flagship IPA, and most released can and almost always on draft. Pulp is that juicy bitter goodness. Extra Pulp is probably my favorite beer of theirs, with Juice and Emerald showers rounding out my personal 5.

About 5-6 people in line now. Came early bc I was bored and want that pulp friction in my belly

 

Pulp friction is very good. Very good. They have Slip-ons on tap from RAR. First time I've seen a guest tap. That was fantastic. 50-60 cases of Pulp total

 

Nice, getting some Fresh, Pulp and Emerald Showers.

 

Do they still have Pulp and Blondes?

 

Its not the Demand its the small batch 50-60 cases is nothing, that's enough for 105 people if they get the allotment

 

Wow! I left around 1:30 & assumed they had plenty. Makes sense though, cuz everyone there was getting cans

 

They are definitely making the batches smaller. The question is why. They have the capacity and demand for more!

Random: but haven't seen a Gary beer on draft for months

 

Pulp and fresh sold out but available for crowler fills

 

Demand/Space. They are sooo small and they have to reserve more for distribution as demand grows statewide & Gary is a beer that takes a while to ferment.

 

& they want to can more frequently since they have a line there now. That may account for smaller batches, if that's the case.

 

Wonder if they might have special cans/tappings for American Craft Beer Week?

 

I understand your points but it's not like we see Civil at bars across south Florida. I only really see kegs of theirs at bottle shops that do growler fills. Hope they ramp up production of cans soon or they truly start distributing on a wider scale. Getting tough to drive up there to only grab a few packs of each instead of a case. They also spoiled us with the case limit for a long time lol

 

I like the idea of smaller batches if it means more variety of beer in cans and more frequent releases, Im am pretty close so that would keep me drinking local with more offerings. Maybe they will do a weekly release like Veil

 

Anything special going on here this week? May stop by tonight on my way down to the Keys.

 

Juice dropping today. 1 case pp

 

Short notice. Hopefully lasts a bit.

 

Agreed. Hoping the case limit means there's a good bit.
