    Did my best to interpret what I think you meant.

    Can confirm. Velocity of Light is a real treat. Mostly mosaic flavors, light but creamy body that ends up falling away quickly and finishing dry.

    I don’t find it too bitter at all. I do find it has plenty of carbonation, which many Hazeheads associate with bitterness for some reason.

    I have to say I am very, very impressed with it. I drank it as my first beer last night, and the two new hop butchers i had after it didn't hold a candle to it to be honest.

    I enjoyed this batch of Velocity of Light way more than the bomber version; much more "New England" style to my palate; less acrid, bitter & boozy.

    Here's hoping the next batch is even fruitier, smoother & more tasty!

    False. This beer is a universal constant. Original reviewer has not changed his tasting notes since first taste of first batch through present day. I think his reviewer handle is Olaus Roemer.

    Well, I google'd Olaus Roemer (Ole Romer?) and learned something...but otherwise I have no clue what you're talking about.

    As many douchebags on this board like to say...."cheers!"

    (This post was meant in fun, hope it comes through in text format)

    Ah, now I get it (I'm a literature major, have mercy on me):

    Rømer's view that the velocity of light was finite was not fully accepted until measurements of the so-called aberration of light were made by James Bradley in 1727.

    Most of us feel this way about our resident BA mad scientist. Sometimes it can be deciphered, sometimes not, but it's always entertaining.

    Not sure if this was brewery only or not, but I went through both UC and BN today, and I forgot to look for this. Whoops. Grr.

    Already back home, far away from Pipework distro. Kicking myself for not remembering to check while I had access to it.

    I blame @flat_lander . He told me to pick up Tryptyc. I did. I forgot to even check dates because he said I should get it. Or maybe it's because I was on the phone to my wife at the time trying to act like I wasn't spending even more money on beer. Again.

    Guess we'll never know, and keep blaming @flat_lander .
