    This Highway to Haze is perfect.

    Finished a crowler tonight of highway to haze. First glass was good but I would have put three of their other beers ahead of it.

    The next two grew on me and finished off to be an outstanding beer. I would still put cosmic juicebox ahead of it but this was a close second.

    Corridor and Forbidden Root doing everything right.

    Went to Corridor tonight and had some Highway to Haze. Being a Galaxy hop fan, this delivered. Very pineapple, mango, tropical juicy flavor with a good mouthfeel that rounds things up well. For me, this is in the tier with Cosmic Juicebox except it's more managable to drink due to lower abv.

    Left with 4 crowlers (not all for me however. Some for friends). I'd have grabbed even more but didn't want to be more greedy than already was. Get it while you can. Corridor is getting better and better.

    On that note, and I promised this weeks ago, but we are not going to implement limits on Crowlers. Hopefully we do not annoy to many with this policy. Thanks for the support, cheers.

    Was wondering if someone would pick that up :slight_smile:. Oh well, my team lost. My wife and son met me at the game - the kid is a Cubs fan so he went home happy and way past his bedtime...

    To try to bring a more relevant note to this thread - I did see a few folks there with kids and it seemed fine. May have to hit Corridor up with the fam on a day visit to the city some time. I've never been there for a meal.

    Lot's of Cosmic Juicebox comparisons for Highway to Haze here. What are the noticeable differences between the two?

    Aren't they both 6.8%?

    I'm anxious to taste how the Motueka plays in HtH when I pop my crowler this weekend. I'm a big fan of the hop and loved it's use in Van Hazen.

    You might be right. For some reasons I was thinking Juicebox was 8%.

    Guess I'll have to walk over this afternoon... oh, the humanity. Enjoyed Pulp Hogan but wasn't as good as V.H. or the Squeezit. Looking forward to this...

    I didn't have a can of Van Hazen (just a few sips) so I can't speak to that one, but Pulp Hogan was like a lower ABV Squeezit (at least V1), so my theory has always been that the perfect ABV for Corridor's stuff (imo) is somewhere between 7 and 8%.

    At Corridor having a Highway to Haze and definitely a great beer to represent the Southern Hemisphere. Plenty of tropical fruit flavor and a nice little bite on the finish. I love Galaxy hops which drew my interest and have had good beers with Nelson and Waimea but have never really warmed up to any beer with Motueka.

    Highway to Haze seems to bring out the best of all four hops, simply delicious. Thanks again for another great beer Corridor.

    Having a Highway to Haze now. Its very enjoyable but lacking the bite that Squeezit OG has. Right now I'd put it behind that and CJB (and I love Galaxy), but I'll get a crowler and try again next weekend.

    Any update on how much long you anticipate H2H lasting?

    From my experience it is going to either go faster or last longer than they are able to estimate...

    Going fast! I'll know more after the weekend, but I'd say no later than Wednesday.

    I didn't grab my receipt. My total for a short pour and 4 crowlers was $54.
