    That Head Fake sounds delicious. Anyone try it? May stop over on Sunday so I hope it doesn't kick before then.

    I think it could have used a touch more peach (just my opinion), but it was drinking ok! There was a pretty big hop burn, so I bet in a week that will mellow out.

    Head Fake was better this week than last. It mellowed a bit. I think it was no growlers yesterday afternoon so it very well have kicked.

    Screensaver and Monsters are both on.

    Never had a Brut IPA before. The dryness playing with the hops adds a unique element to the flavor & mouthfeel

    Sipping on a Nosh currently. Flavors are quite subdued, but its remarkably drinkable and smooth.

    Foggiest Notion is well done! The lemon and citrus are bold and peppery.

    Had both Nosh and Foggiest this afternoon... enjoyed both, but quite different from each other. Nosh little bit of an old school/new school hybrid, with subtle sweet malt, little juicy but with a citrusy bitter finish. Foggiest was big fruity nose, juicy, and hoppy. Probably give the nod to Foggiest

    Can't recall if I saw this posted here or not, but looks like they got some new can art. Should have a can drop in a few weeks.

    Can someone let me know if they fill growlers other than their own? I did not see anything on the website other than which beers are available for growler fills. Thank you.
