    Nice to see that they are addressing potential issues. I know some people had some bad cans not long ago. It makes more sense not to try to can everything the morning of a release, they have the storage space might as well make sure you are fully prepared for the release ahead of time.

    Richard, are there any details you can share with us here? What specific upgrades will be implemented? When will these upgrades occur?

    Cheers!

    Since my fridge is still pretty full w some Eviscerated and Technicolor among others, I'm selfish and was hoping for lower allotments so things could last a while . Even so I assume these will stick around into late tonight.

    Trying to strategize since I need to pick up kids by 6. Either take them to dinner at Ferm and then grab after when likely no line, vs take a ride later tonight after they are alseep . #FirstWorldProblems

    Wednesday release this week blows my shot on my first pass through town on Friday (not that I was optimistic) ... such is life. I'm fairly certain I will make it through with Hop Hands and a bottle or two. :-)

    I told myself all summer I'd go once at night once ours was down. By the time that rolls around I'm to beat to drive the 45 minutes and would rather just enjoy whats in the fridge. The same thing will happen tonight to me I'm sure I bet. Treat myself to a four pack and a pour tonight, but I know it won't happen haha. Cheers.

    So true. I never feel like moving my car, parking again in Center City when I get back, etc. That's why I'm trying to convince myself that the hassle of taking kids to Ferm (5yo loves the tacos) is worth it

    How good is the Tongue Ext., anyone had it in the can yet? (hahahha)

    And on the bottle thing, I just absolutely still love Ourison, such a great beer and very reasonable too. I always have one in the fridge.

    Not out of the can yet, but on draft it was phenomenal. I love when everyone sleeps on the good beers.

    Still over 90 cases of Sustained Transient left this morning. Wonder why that one is selling way slower than the other two...?

    Just a guess - but with only "dry hops" (I know traditional definitions are being bent), perhaps there is a worry that this beer will quickly fall off, and therefore people only buy a small amount they will drink quickly?

    If they have a place to store the beer for a few weeks, maybe it's time (shakes and stouts the exception) just to stock the ferm and general store and sell the beer at open when it's ready. Save money on hiring line and cashier attendants. And get all the drinkers who avoid the hype back out there more often.

    Yeah I agree. Maybe I’m wrong, but I can’t remember a time when two TH double IPAs lasted for two days behind the bar. Though maybe by doing the releases the way they do, they still drive turnout more than just stocking cans at the general store would do.
