    Sorry for the delays...Lambda will start hitting stores in CO next Monday 6/5, we promise this time! Ask your favorite store what day they get their CSA delivery.

    Might be a week or so later. Keep telling your local stores to ask their distributor for it!

    And it has arrived (at least it's starting to show up around the Denver metro).

    Wonder if this would age like a 120?

    We've ageed a little at the brewery. It gets quite malty but not stale if that's your thing do it.

    I loved it, borderline Pliny the Younger good, syrupy, resiny, nice hop bitterness balance, malty backbone for days, surprisingly not overly boozy.

    I'm hoping it isn't hopped alcohol like that awful Waldo swill.

    Definitely less sweet and viscous than Waldo's in my opinion, though also perhaps a little less "tropical" if you will. Not the very best triple IPA I've ever had (that honor would go to PtE or RuinTen) but definitely better balanced than most and note that neither of those two I mentioned above is available in 12 oz. format.

    Love being able to open a single can of this to enjoy!

    Yeah Waldo's was a bit much for me too.. I found if you drank it with a strong pour and as cold as possible, it was decent. But a sixer of that was a bit tough at 13% too. quite the hoppy sugar bomb.

    Quite a few Melvin Double/Triple IPA's out there now. What's your guys' fav? I personally really enjoy Citradamus.
