    Thanks for the reply! That is probably the coolest thing about this thread - to have brewers talk to us and announce releases and discuss ingredients and process. Just to be clear, I surly didn't mean to imply that you didn't know what you were doing or anything like that but that there just seemed to be some hiccups in brewing/packaging this beer on this first go around. I am a mediocre home brewer so I know to a lesser degree the difficulty in dealing with a "living" beverage. I really enjoy the hop profile on this and that it bridges the gap between the two, often competing, regional expressions of IPA. I am happy to see the process locked in for this beer as I will definitely be returning to it in the future.

    Again, cheers for standing behind your beer!

    No one on the corner got a swagger like us. An peace. Brewing is not rocket science but things happen!

    I didn't take it that way. Your comment just seemed the most appropriate to use to address what was on my mind. I hold no ill will.

    I'm glad you appreciate it. I was on these forums before I was a brewer, and I love talking about beer. That will never change. Even if I have to have bunch of shit heaped on me and have to eat crow every now and then.

    [​IMG] Not sure what is going on but mama didn't raise a quitter(I'm probably an alcoholic), but same keg 3rd pour.



    Clear and fantastic! When this beer is on it's on. I guess I can blame the Comrade glassware.

    Really love the nose of New England Transplant by New Image. Just had it this weekend and smells like straight peaches. Also had Hop Nectar for the first time and was shocked how much flavor was packed into that beer at the ABV of a lager. Can see myself sipping through a 6 pack of that over the summer real easy.

    Have you tried the Jasmine IPA? That's a pretty good one. I visited the brewery in seattle and drinking their fresh hoppy stuff on tap was pretty good too.
