    This is going to be good. Another stellar label imo (what new?). Will hit distro to NYC, Philly & Wisc as well as Illinois.

    This label is so good I'm tempted to buy a 4-pack just to see it in my fridge.

    I'm really excited with these new Half Acre lagers, hope this continues, Alpine Rain was awesome. Will definitely pick up Fader.

    Fader was so so good on tap, miss that one, and I'm not a huge drinker of Pils. Jealous...guys. Enjoy!

    Finally trying a can of Heroic Dose. Very sweet, boozy, and bitter. It's good but half a dose is plenty. Thank you Dylan@Prestige for the can!

    does anyone know what hops are used in vallejo? a quick google search didn't turn up much but a post from 2014 which said Nelson and Simcoe. Is that still the same?

    Had this tonight and it was just absolutely delicious. Preferred this to Pennon and Amargosa. Picked up a bottle, almost got two. In my opinion HA sour/wild beers are easily the best in the city. As a FYI they had bottles for sale at both locations to go. Cheers.

    Yep. Picked up 4 and had some pours in the tap room. Another Home run from the HA Wyld program.

    I also thought it was delicious. Not a knock against it, but I liked Pennon and Magick better.

    Assuming the website is correct, it sounds like they sold out?

    I was wondering about that - website must just never have been updated for this release.

    Hi, just here to say I feel like a release announcement is overdue.

    Also, does anyone know whether the apparently hazy collab with Perennial will be distributed in Chicago?
