Fieldwork appreciation thread

Grabbed 12 cans of Pulp at Berkeley today. Good timing too, having a party tonight! I... I wish my fridge always looked like this:



Cheers!

 

Glad to see Temescal in your fridge. I think they deserve much more love than they have.

 

That's awesome! My fridge is pretty similar with 7 Pulp, 3 Bruff, 1 Selektor, a growler of Wicked Juicy, 3 Layers, 1 Big Spoon, 1 Mai Tai, 1 Picnic Lightning, 1 Planet Lovetron, and my last The Glow. Yes, I love hazies, but I ain't no "Bro" lol. More of just a guy with a serious case of FOMO

If you haven't cracked one yet, you'll be happy to know that Pulp is as good as ever on day 1. Can't wait to taste it in a week or two!

 

Are can releases sold as singles or in 4 packs?

 

Sold as singles pretty much. They actually have six-pack holders, and not 4s

 

What's price range per can typically just out of curiousity?

 

From my experience:

IPA/DIPA/IPL/lighter = $4.50-6

High ABV = $6-10

For today, Tachtical Hachet (7.7%) = $5, Tiger Uppercut (8.5%) = $5.50

 

anyone on the peninsula got an extra can or 2 of tiger by chance ft?

 

To give a bit more detail, generally single IPAs (at FW, anything below 8%) are $5 and DIPAs are $5.50. That’s the majority of their releases, but other styles can be more. Good Conduct was $9, although it’s barrel-aged and 12%…

 

I agree. I enjoyed Little Spoon, Big Spoon, Post Coast, and I'm actually kind of embarrassed by how much I liked Stonefruit Swirl. With that said though, the consistency seems recent.

Nice man! I really enjoyed Bruff and Lovetron, Revision is on their game right now. Layers and this batch of Mai Tai were pretty good too. I actually am all of out Pulp cans (surprise, surprise) but I agree, this batch was good! Hope you had a good NYE!

 

Random question: Are the logo glasses usually in stock?

They're not really very prominently displayed at the San Mateo tap room, so I had no idea they were available until I happened to overhear mention that a new shipment had come in.

 

IME yes, the glasses are easy to come by....most have them in stock, just ask.

 

Old School West Coast. Centennial hops.....what? #clearbeer

 

radio silence from FW today, was really hoping for some cans, i'd be their for the new year

anyone know if anything got canned yesterday?

 

Anyone recognize the site?

 

Has to be San Jose, right?

 

a bunch of people are saying that but where is that info coming from?

 

I'm hearing San Ramon.

 

No inside knowledge, just that the South Bay has the worst beer scene in the entire region and seems ripe for the picking.

San Ramon would be awesome since my parents and sister live in Danville. Perhaps in the new Bishop Ranch complex?

 

Lots of family in Danville too so I’m rooting for San Ramon. Would be nice to have something besides Pets’s Brass Rail and Carwash, even though I still like that place.
