    That's pretty annoying. I just stopped by and didn't see any available--just St Vito and Sonoma Pride.

    Huh? I never saw any Instagram post for that beer. No email either. Was that actually a release?

    They haven't announced 1 star beer review or sticky ichy on ANY social Media pages. Why would you be annoyed? NO Official Announcement yet about cans or dates or times.

    Those are just possible Saturday releases or future beers. That has been the pattern lately. 2 beers on Friday, then 2 beers on Saturday.

    Just picked up Sonoma Pride and St Vito in SAC. No line, no wait. Also had Pulp and Broken Clouds on draft. Great Friday lunch.

    I confused. Two dudes from the previous page said they were released yesterday. Was he talking about a different beer? I'm annoyed because I'm confused. lol

    Yeah, odd. Not sure if ESB and Supermario were confused or talking about other beers on the last page??

    So according to one of the barkeeps at the Berkeley location, All Sticky should be available tomorrow.

    I was trying to read the tea leaves by pointing at things which had been recently added to the beer archive (https://fieldworkbrewing.com/our-beer/), but not actually released or even given a release date yet.

    Given that All Sticky No Icky was just added to the archive and they posted on Instagram about the collaboration with Humble Sees at about the same time as they did so about collaborating with Altamont for St. Vito's Ire it seems likely that All Sticky No Icky is coming soon. ~2 weeks from brewing to canning sounds about right to this novice.

    Apologies if I confused anyone by mixing references to the initial announcements of the collaborations, the beers appearing in the archive, and the actual release announcements.

    lol yea supermario confused everyone by replying to me when i was talking about all sticky no icky. Bartender said all sticky is tomorrow, i have a feeling we will see one star tomorrow too, but thats just speculation

    i liked vito's ire, but did anyone else thing it was alot like orchard street, which isnt a bad thing by any means.

    I know that it happened about a week ago, but did anyone attend their Oktolbertfest? I'm super bummed that I missed out - it looks like they had a nice lineup of breweries that participated. Any highlights from the event?

    Yeah, i was kinda disappointed with All Sticky. A lot of Fieldwork's beers that I consider 2nd tier start to taste alike with no obvious discernible quality between them. I'm not sure if I could tell them apart to be honest. Again, they're not bad beers--just not out of the ordinary enough to keep me interested.

    I was there around 5:30 and saw everybody with Pride and Icky cans. By the time I got to the front of the line ALL the cans were gone. Since St. Vito's was the only one available for fills I got a crowler sight unseen of that and pours of Pride and Icky, and a sample of Vito's. Pride was amazing and Icky was really good too. Vito's was least favorite, but still ok.

    I agree with the above; Pride was the standout of the weekend with All Sticky being very tasty and Vito the least interesting but far from bad or boring.

    For all that I’m bummed I wasn’t able to get a can of Vito—I’ve been covering the door of the fridge with Fieldwork labels and that’s one that’s not coming round again. Anyone who can spare a label (don’t need more of the beer…) please PM me and we can work something out.

    I have to agree with ESB and MA9573...... Somona Pride was my favorite from the weekend. Between the 2 friends and I that went on Friday we got a lot of cans..... BUT, I now wish we got more SPride..lol.. They came strong with mouth feel, smell out of the glass and some great hops.

    I guess I'm the odd one out but I found Sonoma Pride a little bit lacking (especially given their 4.3+ on Untappd, which makes them by far the highest rated Sonoma Pride.) It wasn't a bad beer by any means, but I'd place it average, maybe even below average, for Fieldwork IPAs/DIPAs. It had a rather muted tangerine flavor, did not find it that juicy despite the apperance, and the taste also had an ever so slight hint of diskette that shows up here and there in IPAs. The best things about it were the appearance and mouthfeel.
