    Glad that craft beer is a thing at Coachella. I've never attended that fest due to my lack of funds (though considering who owns the festival, not sure I'd want to give them my money anyway).

    It’s nice. I get much more coffee than maple. And despite the higher ABV, not overly-sweet.

    I also got a chance to try it recently. Not my bag still, all the Stack beer is just too sweet for me. But it was really smooth for the 12.5% abv.

    I'll have to stop in again soon though to try the "Pina Kaleidoscope IPA" they brewed with Courtyard Brewing out of New Orleans... it sounds quite good and I'm curious as to how it compares to the Gigantic/Superflux PinaCOOLada.

    The weekly Friday update (4/13/18).

    1. Alberta Street Beers: New batches of Juice Box and Super Ripe went on tap this week and next week we have some loveliness in the form of Over Ripe, Luminous Batch 2 with blood oranges, and Mangosteen Mochi IPA all hitting our taps.
    2. NW 28th Beers: We have knocked 5 brews out at our new facility so far and with each brew, we are mastering the system a bit more. So far we have brewed a saison to fill sour barrels, Juice Jr, Blueberry Muffin, Ripe and Juice Box.
    16 oz Cans: Look for announcements on FB & IG, but we are hoping to have our first can release by the end of the month! We will most likely do this at our new location as moving a few hundred cases of beer back and forth doesn't sound like an easy thing to do.

    So they are saying first can release by end of month at new location? I will pencil it in for early 2019

    What will everyone's breaking point on 4 pack price be? Not sure I'll willing to go over $14 and I feel like its going to be closer to $18.

    Well, a couple breweries up here in the hinterlands are doing the 4x16 Murkbomb releases, and having no trouble moving them at $14-18 per, so I think hoping for a sub $14 price, in PDX especially, is very optimistic.

    I paid $24 for one of the Holy Mountain juice tallboy releases. Yeah, I know. I'm dumb.

    If they cost more than Revision cans, I'll pass. These days I'd rather grab a few cans of various beers (easy to do with hazy stuff at bottle shops these days) than commit to a 4-pack.

    Looks like Great Notion has some competition :stuck_out_tongue:

    Happy Tuesday! Have you seen our Mango Double IPA in a can? It's now available for purchase here at The Bagdad, $4.50/can and $18/4-pack. Come on down and get one of your very own!

    Ha, I'm pretty much taking a break from Holy Mountain. Sacrilegious I know, but some of the prices are just a bit much for me personally.

    Based on my personally man crush for Revision brews, I continue to lay down $16-$20 for their stuff. Still waiting for a subpar offering from them. But yea, the breaking point is fast approaching even with Revision.

    It can't be any worse than the $27/4pks of Hoof Hearted that recently showed up around town.

    i honestly cant see buying any of these 4 packs for more than $14. Many of them taste so similar, that it would have to be a truly unique beer to justify that price.

    I can get a single can of Ft. George City of Dreams for about $1.75 at my local grocery store and to me its as good or better than 80% of the hazy stuff i have tried over the past few months

    Fremont's hazy 4-packs have been $12 at the brewery, but that's not normal for other breweries up here.
