    This batch of Mylar is on point, though I guess that’s to be expected. Galaxy + Vic Secret is... interesting. I can’t put my finger on what I don’t like about it, but it’s still solid. Not my favorite dual hop by a mile, but it’s decent and I’m not upset I grabbed a 4pk.

    93rd and Columbus gets some interesting things, like Barrier cans, but none of it is refrigerated

    I got so used to having cans always available from the weekly drops, that I didn't even check IG before I went to OH to get Mylar at 4pm. They were sold out....of all cans. I guess we're getting spoiled a bit.

    There was a wait to get into OH this afternoon. They said they were at full capacity.:expressionless:

    I rolled through around 2PM with dog and kid hoping to have a pint but had to pass as it was too packed. I can't believe they wouldn't save room for two non-drinking warm bodies #otherhalfhatesnondrinkingwarmbodies.

    It was so packed when I showed up that I was going to immediately leave but it seemed less crazy when I left around 2-ish. Honestly the crowd at OH sucks now, it makes me basically only want to get cans and leave.

    Man, Treehouse drops:

    "No TV and no beer makes Homer go hazy"
    "I want my baby bright, baby bright, baby bright"
    "Beer has hops, hops are plants, beer is salad"

    OH needs to step up that can printing game! These days even the date is sometimes illegible.

    Edit: To the above posters, such is the price of having such a great brewery in our backyard?

    I’d love more consistency of the bottom print as well. Will they ever outdo their single hop Nelson print of “Ha Ha!”?

    Regarding the crowds, maybe if we ever do one of those BA meetups again, we aim for a Sunday night?

    Anyone try triple citra? Solid or too much for this batch?

    I thought it was worse than previous batches but maybe it's still a little green. Triple Broccoli is solid this time tho.

    Agreed. Last BA bottle was $20. You'd have to think they will keep increasing until it settles between $24-$26 a pop, that's where I see this going.

    I'd imagine that Tuesday is gonna be the collab shitshow?

    Nevertheless, glad I'm off that day.

    So, "next week's release" I assume means no new release this weekend (since they usually announce the Saturdays beers every Monday)? Or does that mean no release Saturday post Thanksgiving?

    Thanks. Long day at work. Makes sense, especially if they have collaborations prepped and ready to go.

    Which collab? If that is the case I hope it’s a noon release to avoid the mess
