    I’d forgotten I’d actually had Hefen a few months back and wasn’t a fan.

    Ballistic was an enjoyable APA that is very drinkable. Definitely growler-worthy.

    Lake Surprise is real nice as well. Very tasty high ABV sipper.

    Didn't have a chance to try Nothing But Yet last week…what's a "warehouse" saison?

    interchanging Warehouse for Farmhouse, so as not to take away from the true/traditional meaning of Farmhouse style beers...

    It is also a sour. I don't enjoy sours but asked for a taste of this. It is very sour so ask for a taste before you buy.

    The Nosh is awesome. Wakatu is a fantastic hop, and this is a great showcase

    I literally just missed goodnight sell out today... got a fill of Toys in the Attic, a bit green, needs a week but will be drinking nicely for next weekend. Tried When Becoming a Hero and it was so nice and refreshing... 2.8% alc, but real nice flavors. Nice on this oddly hot day.

    I see La Di Da Di is coming up...I thought last time they brewed that it was a porter with mint (well made but not my thing)? Coconut, coffee and vanilla sounds great!

    yeah, there have been a few iterations of la di da di... they need to name the variants or something... La Di Da Di: xxxxx. I think the first one was actually a "Session" stout that was like 4.5%

    had the Foggiest Notion last night, unlike many of their beers that tend to be green on release, this was drinking great.

    I had a pint of False Data tonight. If you nurse it the flavors really pop and the mouth feel is outstanding. It's an awfully easy drinker for 8.2%
