    I know the term IPA is used loosely now mainly as a marketing tool, but this beer is not even close to the style. Sounds delicious though.

    That seems more accurate. I'd know more what to expect which is the point of having styles in the first place.

    I actually like their "crushable" session IPAs. Go Ride a Bike is awesome.

    In case anyone is wondering, there was barely a line at noon today. This will probably be a somewhat brisk release.

    i imagine if not many people are there and they have a decent supply you may see case limits or closer to it... 4 4pk per etc. think that happened the last time there wasn't much chair presence

    Ended up 4-4 pack limits. Anyone have either yet? Waiting to see what is left for opening today, if any.

    I had a glass of the (previous?) batch of Handbier at the Fermentaria last week and I liked it the least compared to the other beers I drank (Unlook Back Dark Mild and Daydreaming DIPA). My review:

    "look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3.5
    Pale yellow very hazy color, white head. Nice hop aroma of grass, some stone fruit. Taste and mouthfeel are not as nice. Slightly harsh minerally aftertaste, thin watery mouthfeel."

    Quite a bit left, 120 cases of HandBier and 70 cases of Mirror.

    The DIPA is good, but it did taste a bit green. Strong hop bite up front followed by pure OJ. I'm thinking in a few days, this will taste killer.

    For the crushable IPAs definitely preferred go ride a bike to handbier

    Surprised @larryi86 hasn't chimed in here, but we both thought HandBier (V1) was one of the best session IPAs ever from TH. Curious if V2 is just as good.

    Been busy with the school year starting, but yes Handbier is probably the best session IPA I've ever tried. I liked it more than the last batch of Go Ride A Bike

    HandBier was still around last night at 9. That was a pleasant surprise.

    I really enjoyed the PA lager they had on tap.
