    I didn't get that at all with the Vortex cans, or on draft. Both options had a spot-on hop presence, with no lingering burn on the end in my opinion.

    damn, didn't realize their releases were so popular. or is it more a matter of low production?

    either way, hope to at least try the vortex on tap this weekend

    I'm going to try another can from the second 4 pak. Overall its good, great citrus nose and easy drinking for that high ABV.

    The Hop Prism Turquoise W/Grapefruit was awesome on tap!

    Giggle Gummy has good fruit flavor, but it's a little too chalky for me. It'll probably benefit from a week or two of age. Vortex is still great

    Both vortex and giggle were still available last night around 9ish. Looked like they had quite a few yet.

    I really liked Hop Prism turquoise. It's super hazy (which is a departure). It's not NE style in the sense that it has IPA bitterness but it's a tropical fruit wonder. Very different mouthfeel and bittnerness but just the fruits remind me of Julius (and I hesitate to put that out there because i don't want to set expectations that high). Really damn good beer. Giggle Gummy was solid but kind of forgettable amongst the gummy series

    I plan on hitting up Noon Whistle today around 6P.M. Do we think it is going to last that long? I need some beers for a golf day with 3 other friends tomorrow and this would be good to bring.

    I just walked in. No one else there getting cans. You might have a chance. Bartender said no distro.

    Awesome. I'll be there tonight. I'm sure i'll miss out the FR Snoochies, so this should hit the spot.

    I think Noon Whistle would be in a wee bit of trouble if they weren't collecting tax on liquor sales.
