    It might have been this way for a while, and it's certainly competitive with bars around the city, but damn, paying $8 for 12 oz of stacks at the source felt a bit rough.

    Almost hard to believe that they used to offer flights for $5 when they opened back in 2014

    Don’t sleep on that DDH Enigma. Drinking awesome right out of the gates. Gonna be incredible in 2 weeks.

    Have not touched any of today's OH offerings, but had my first Centennial IPA this evening... just fantastic. As the can stamp stated, certainly "old school" bitter but with a lovely OH softness appropriate for 2017. I hope we see more of this beer this year!

    AEE is the purest dose of Enigma I could imagine. Just crazy. Love the initial spring onion vibes but this will be amazing in a few weeks.

    Anyone know if Enigma and Hop Showers cans are still available? Thinking of making my way out there if that's the case.

    Anyone crack any of their cans yet? How does the Mylar and mosaic daydream taste?

    Ordered a Mylar at the brewery yesterday afternoon. It was either the wrong beer or oxidized. Darkish brown in color. No hop presence. All malt. I would have said something but the taproom was incredibly busy.

    Looks to be a few people on Untapped with the same issue, from cans.

    That's good to know, last saturday it was slammed. I'm cool with missing 1 or 2 cans, If I can grab a seat for some pours.

    Looks like plenty of Enigma and more than plenty of Hop Showers

    Finally made it to taproom again, been craving this shit all week. Had Vic (alright), Cream of Broccoli (excellent), and that strange lager Numbers. Those cans of the latter sold out BTW, still lots of Showers and DDH AEE.

    This batch of showers is really, really good. It doesn't taste as harsh as it has in the past.

    Drinking a can now and I whole-heartedly agree. Drinking like a tropical fruit cocktail. Easily my favorite iteration of Hop Showers to date.

    I'm usually a triple IPA hater but I couldn't pass on DDH AEE since I've become an Enigma fanboy. Damn this is a nice beer.

    excited to still grab some ddh AEE and hop showers the next day. especially since they were the two i was interested in.

    had ddh mylar on tap and that is not the same beer as previous batches. the color is completely different.

    Yeah ditto on the Mylar. Just cracked a can. Totally different color, tastes very different, somewhat oxidized too. Wonder what happened? Bummed I bought so much :-/
