    I just picked up a couple 4 packs of Night Moth so it’s definitely still available.

    I was a little surprised by the turnout last night. I walked in at 6 pm and there was no line for the cans and no lines formed that I saw while i was there from 6-7:30. They also still had Power Trip on which was badass.

    Related to glassware - the Hop Gobbler is too big, specifically for guests. For example, I popped a TG xMaroon last night, and poured a taste for myself. My buddy grabbed the gobbler and promptly filled it to the top, killing the bottle.

    Next time, I know to give him the dainty teku / make better friends, and keep the gobbler to myself.

    Didn't I see on FR's Insta story a while ago about canning Toro? Or did I completely make that up or miss out already? haha

    I'm not sure they said anything about when they'll ultimately can it - but I know @BJP posted the artwork that would be used on the label for it. Once you see it, you never forget it ... :joy:

    He's also drinking some Lichtenhainer and hating me for it. What kind of monster doesn't like a smoked sour beer?

    @KrajDoesBeer had to walk me back from double dry hopping and throwing spelt flour in the fermenter.

    Want to mention I spotted a handful of Radio Swan four pack cans on the shelf at Binny's on Grand if that location is easy for you and you are looking for some.

    Night Moth cans still rolling as of 7:15’ish. Nice to have access days after a release. I just wish I had time to have a burger and run through a bunch of the beers on the menu. While I love the haze, I also appreciate the variety offered.

    any chance that we'll see that dry hopped grisette ever return? i'm drinking a mikkeller dry hopped grisette right now wishing it was the forbidden root dry hopped grisette.

    Next year there's a good possibility. Right now we're loving Hopstead, its big brother, and will be seeing a new batch pretty soon. Giving the revamped recipe some slight acidity and hops we think better fit the bill. Tasted great in the fermenter this morning and can't wait to get it to y'all!

    Nice! I like that current version of Hopstead, stoked for something with more acidity.

    I just remember the Grisette having A+ aroma coming off it.

    Excited for the new version of Hopstead. Thanks for the update.
