    It is draft only, no growlers fills until next week.

    Not to be cliche, but right now feeling last year was better. The batch of Hooey on tap is awesome and I am enjoying that more right now.

    I trust your tasting acumen. This is disappointing to hear about 'SHH'. I remember last year that the early keg pours tasted differently than those just a few days later. I thought the beer improved over the first week or so.

    Don't get me wrong it is good, but to me, it isn't as flavorful as last year.

    Top Ten Andover tweeted they had it in earlier today.

    Yeah I can't believe how a year ago only Herritage(as far as I knew) would get Junkyard cans and King Size would even sit for a couple days and now people are waiting in line at stores before deliveries show up for it. Thankfully I checked instagram when I left Barrel Theory and Stinsons was estimated to get their delivery about 15 minutes from then and is also on my way home so I was lucky enough to get a King Size this round. They also said every store that received King Size received a full case(32 cans).

    Yeah, PB Bandit is good for sure but King Size is one of my favorite stouts ever literally a peanut butter cup in a glass.

    Doesn't even look like the same beer this year. :-(

    Had several growlers last year, loved it! This....not so much.

    I was there with a few people last night and all of us agree with him. If it’s a change in all of our palates or poor memory, so be it, but it’s not what I remember. I still enjoyed the taproom as I always do, but thought hooey, cockamamy and brunch stout were all better than the hash.

    It came in at Princeton's around noon on Friday, might still be there. Call ahead. If not, maybe try Tonka Bottle shop.

    Surly teased cans of their J. Wakefield collaboration today. I’m definitely looking forward to this one.
