Sand City Brewing (2018)

Drinking another Infinity Plus Everything now. Often people say some IPAs will get better as they age, hear that about OH beers a lot. This beer is really good now, if it ages and becomes a bit brighter and juicier this will be an absolute monster. If possible, tastes a bit juicer and brighter to me today compared to yesterday. I loved the original Infinity Plus One, that beer really popped. I think this one could head that way.

 

Bc its xmas, and my fridges are busting, I’m having my last cans of one and two. Two is damn near perfect right now. Smoke em if you still got em.

 

It is hard to say that anyone anywhere is doing a better job than Sand City right now.

 

While I agree they've put out some great beer, that's a pretty aggressive claim.

 

That’s a ridiculous claim

 

Agreed. Sand City quality puts it in league with the kind of beer most of us in the Northeast can get nowadays. What a great thing that is.

 

Just seeing this now!! lol....awesome post!!!

 

Sand City's best beers stack up with the regions best for sure. On a whole, IMHO other breweries are on a whole putting out a more of a quantity of great stuff, for instance every week Other Half is cranking out new and old great stuff. But Sand City is on the whole a great brewery.

Drinking another Infinity Plus Everything now, this beer is turning complex, a lot going on with it. Felt one dimensional when it came out, I like where this one is heading, great beer,

 

While I'm sure the infinity series is great, everything else is good for LI but it's not world class. Not even close to Tree House, Alchemist, Trillium or even OH.

 

I see you and raise you, Other Half > Trilllium (hoppy stuff) !

 

I'm not going to debate that, OH has been crushing it lately.

 

Strange then that OH's highest rated beer here is a Sand City collab. Food for thought.

 

Are you from Northport?

 

I am not. Is there something on your mind?

 

I think this is becoming a LI vs Bklyn thing......
Both places put out great beer....
Other Half is tough to get to for LI people...
Sand City is tough to get to for Bklyn people...
I think peoples loyalties lie in there somewhere....

 

Working my way through my stash of Infinity Plus Everything, tasting super creamy tonight, haze for daze also! Such an intruiging beer!

 

I don't know how you guys make em last so long...

 

So what’s the scoop now for the tasting room? Only cans out the back on release days? Or are growlers and cans still available on the regular?

 

Start with a lot !!

 

At this point, I'd take at least 75% of Sand City IPA's over anything brewed by Alchemist.
