    Looks like somebody's having a liquid lunch. LOL. Heading over in about a half an hour for some fine Corridor libations.

    Was talking to the bartender yesterday and if part of your order included 2 crowlers of Big Slice he remembered you. Lol

    Got to try the Rapunsel last night after my obligatory Squeeze it and can see why it got silver at GABF. Cant wait to drop in again. Staff is really special at Corridor and they always make me feel welcome when I stop in.

    Haha yep that was me indeed! And I'll echo your sentiments on the staff, they're top notch.

    Well, that blows. Looks like I’ll miss CJB again by a day or 2. Hope SqueezIt lasts until Saturday as I was planning on being there at open. Thanks for the update.

    Was enjoying my crowler of Pulp Hogan here when I saw Misty Business was released. So, @dubo09 , we’re keeping secrets now? :wink:

    Stuff is awesome. I’m basing that opinion from the batch in the summer.

    Just got back from lunch at Corridor. I thought Big Slice was delicious - a really nice stout with a good use of hazelnut.

    I liked Misty Business a bit more than Pulp Hogan - I think it had more body and bite that I preferred. That’s probably expected based on their ABVs.

    Rapunzel was the highlight to me. The honey comes through, not in an overbearing way, to produce a really nice and rich flavors.

    Decided to stop in for a few this evening. Completely agree on Misty, its in the top tier of Corridor offerings for me, for the same reasons you mentioned. Hogan was never one of my favorites, but enjoyable enough, so I'm sure I'll have one. But the Big Slice is the reason I've been meaning to make it back over here for a while. Looking forward to that one, as long as its not a hazelnut bomb. But from the reviews I've read, its pretty balanced. Hazelnut, to me, is like vanilla. A very little goes a long way.

    With the holidays it’s been a bit of a juggling act. Next hazy release is a new DDH Double next Friday. I’ll update name next week.
