    Is it wrong of me to assume that if they specified the barrel that means that there are other BA versions?

    Not necessarily. It’s a nice touch to specify the spirit associated with barrels and in many cases it helps promote the beer. For example, if you have a beer aged in Heaven Hill or Pappy Van barrels, both advertised by their respective spirit, which one do you think many drinkers would find more desirable and seek out?

    I hope this doesn’t create any unnecessary line situation. I was planning on swinging by around open to get the new SDH (which I hope is as good as it sounds). I’m not even sure I’ll pick this up over Blazer Hazers, but that’s just me.

    Yeah I’m with you. I really like the touch of the unannounced collab release - just selfishly wish it wasn’t on a day where I was hoping to do an in and out on several beers I’m keen to grab

    The collab doesn’t include any EQ brisket? Come on.

    Actually, I just finished reading the Trillium thread. I need a beer.

    Line is getting longer. Taking 20-30 mins to move half a block.

    I'm so glad I went yesterday instead of today. Everything available has been insane and the taproom was incredibly mellow. I'll take that over a line no matter what is available.

    How's the new Daydream Layers? I think I7 is alright but don't really know much about cashmere.

    Yep, took me about 45 minutes to get from Garnet to check-out. When I left the line was still at Garnet. Only two employees working POS.
    Haven't cracked this one open yet. Hoping it's as great as the Citra + Cashmere dual hop from earlier this year.

    Hey rozzom there’s no line but I just went and there were four guys on shrooms or acid who didn’t know up from down and they took fucking ages and since I’d just been for a run I nearly got hypothermia. Cheers
