    @KrajDoesBeer any hazy offerings going to be on tap this weekend? swinging in Saturday and hoping to grab a growler for Halloween.

    As much as we all enjoy some of their hazy offerings, I don't think it's appropriate to give the trick-or-treaters pours from a growler as their treat on Halloween.

    Hahaha, thats awesome. Maybe I'll treat some of the adults who come by with a few pours. Seems like a pretty regular thing to drink a bit while you trick or treat with your kids.

    Halloween is actually my wedding anniversary. Looking to celebrate with some delicious beers, hand out candy and party with the lady :wink:

    Today, sadly, will be the end of Power Trip. I'm guessing there are one or two pours in the line left. Battle Bro-yale for the last pours expected.

    Tomorrow, though, we get to Frame & Canvas.

    (Insert photo here at later date something with an Instagram filter that isn't Rise or Moon)

    6.8%. Dead center between citrus, tropical, & pine. Golden Promise & Flaked Wheat. Amarillo, Simcoe, Columbus, Chinook, & Nugget. Goose down mouth feelz (no actual geese harmed in the making of this beer). Yes to growlers. Maybe to keg stands. No to finings.

    Is Snoochie a no-go for growler fills?

    There ya go! Had to let @NikNikNik answer for all the proper details. It’s tasting awesome.. so excited about it!! This will be on growler!

    No Snoochie growlers this time. Cans are almost gone so come get some.

    We had to limit growlers on the NE style for a bit so we can have it on in tap room for everyone.

    Cheers!

    So I've been known to exaggerate. Indeed, my wife tells me all the time that I don't argue fairly because of this (fun, humble fact: even though I get paid to argue in my profession, I don't think I've ever won an argument with the Mrs.). So I don't know if it's the hyperbole talking when I say that, among all the different beers I've had in this style (including those east of, well, let's just say of I-65), and I've had a LOT of them, this batch of Snoochie ranks among the best.

    I want to go back and get more! Will the cans last tonight!?!?

    It's flowing! We also have fresh Hopstead which is tasting like I should've made twice as much.

    It's looking like the wife and I will be by tomorrow night, bringing two friends who have been listening to our praise for weeks.

    Shout out to @KrajDoesBeer the man is a great ambassador for FR. Thanks for the updates and keeping us BAs posted!
