    Just came from lunch there and it’s definitely on. I was not a fan, though. I find TIPAs to be tough to get right for me, though.

    Neon Party was very good. I don’t know if I’d say it’s their best, but it’s up there. The 7% ABV is so well hidden, it’s practically like drinking a session beer.

    This Gummy Vortex batch is great. This is the best hazy beer I’ve had from Noon Whistle

    Whoops sorry I thought I was in the NEIPA thread. Anyways, with the snow looking like a bust I hope to hit Corridor for the fruited saison and Neon Party tomorrow

    That prediction of snow was a joke. Neon Party is no joke.

    Had Neon Party last night. Liked it a descent bit. Juicy, fruity, sweet and a good mouthfeel to go. Looks like orange juice. If I do have a knock, it's that it's a bit undercarbed (not to the level of MoRE's last can releases or anything, but you can tell). I still prefer SqueezeIt, Cosmic Juice Box and maybe one or two others, but having said that I did order 3 last night so... yeah.

    I heard Chief Skeef was just decent. Neon party is fire.

    Hoping Neon Party lasts until tomorrow. Planning on brunch at Corridor after my wife runs the Shamrock.

    Enjoying Neon Party a lot. The Galaxy presence is definitely felt. Nelson NEIPA’s aren’t always my favorite but this one really balances the 3 hops well. Very happy with this one

    Neon Party is a new fav for me from Corridor. Felt like the mouthfeel is the best I've had from Chicago. Love how dank it is. Good job Roger and team.

    If you were trying to make me feel better about missing Chief Skeef...it worked!

    I was bummed about missing it but grabbed 2 Neon Dream crowlers, cracking one with a buddy tonight.

    Smart money sounds like it’d be Friday 4/20 for CJB cans with new shirts to coincide.

    Yeah so Neon Party is next level. Probably one of the best beers I've had from Chicago, period. Dude behind the counter said they have plenty, will probably last through a Thursday.

    Get at it boys!!!

    i definitely need to go back for a crowler, nevermind the fact that i'm already loaded to the gills with haze from hop butcher, FR, marz, and dryhop

    Got to agree 100%. In my opinion this might be the best hazy beer Rodger has done. It was like taking three single hop beers and blending them to near perfection. Every hop came through on the nose, taste and finish. Amazing

    As always, they nailed the mouthfeel on this one.

    Yeah, I don't think so. Had a couple over the weekend. It's good, but this place is WAY over hyped.

    It's been a while since I grabbed a crowler from Corridor (I've been trying to focus on 4-packs for maximum re-drinkability)...definitely getting curious about Neon Party.

    Agree to disagree. I haven't liked every Corridor IPA, but this one was right up my alley. Immediately reminded me of Great Notion.
