    Same I one. It just hit 1 year though, so it's still fairly new.

    Bad Hombre is drinking really well right now. Enjoyed one last night and if you're into a creamy BA Stout then this is up your alley too

    Anyone know what's currently available at transient? Planning on stopping by tomorrow and hoping to score some cans for camping this weekend.

    Lots of Something Strange in cans. Indoorsman was damn good, I'd pick up one or two of those if there is any left. They are in 500 ml bottles though

    Hype(r) drive was a miss for me, way too bitter and didn't enjoy the grain flavors going on in the beer. Did enjoy Something Strange because I do enjoy a good Rye beer, though I'd still put it near the bottom overall out of their canned IPA's. Glad I only got 4 of each. Going to sit on Hype(r) for a while to see if it mellows.

    Hyper Drive tastes better straight out of the can to me, first one I had in a glass and I had the same thoughts as you.

    Also did not love hype(r). Can't fully articulate the flavor i was getting but it was the bitter and something else.

    Something strange was good, but not blow me away need to find it again good.

    Yeah both were misses for me (neither bad though). Happy to try them but would pass next time.

    I liked Hype(r) Drive a lot. I enjoy a good juice bomb as much as the next person, but it's nice to have something that also gives you decent IBU kick on the back end as a change of pace.

    Same. I poured my first in a glass and couldn't finish the whole thing. I drank straight from the can the next day and it was much better. I guess it has a poor aroma?

    Honeystone is my favorite IPA from Transient so far.
