    No Ambassador this year? I guess they're still trying to sell the cans from last year's batch?

    They often do a Thursday/Friday drop. If that happens tomorrow, you should be able to get it on Friday without a problem.

    I know absolutely insane. Best BA stout this side of Kane - in the perfect format - and no one wanted it. Tri-state area hazeboiz man. "$28 for a 4-pack are you nuts?" Lolz.

    They did the New Mexican Ambassador with Santa Fe Brewing which was excellent and Special Counsel with Kane, some of which went into barrels, so still doing some great stouts.

    Honestly, of the beers for Friday’s release, I’m most excited for the Vienna Lager they made with all the Latino-run bars uptown. Haha.

    True that definitely would be an easy trip, but the F is so painfully slow I feel like walking to and taking the L might still be faster haha. But yea if they're right by the F Other Half would be the move.

    Not sure this was posted yet but Rochester is getting some forever simcoe cans and a new Into the NY Night variant this week so could have some left for here as well possibly.

    Anybody else think The Dreamiest was kind of sweet? Not feeling this iteration of the dream series and I do enjoy the others quite a bit. Rare misfire IMO.

    I'm drinking one right now and thinking it's delicious! I may like a slightly sweeter IPA though.

    I thought latest Mylar daydream was a little on the sweet side . . .

    Is DDH green power a “Vermont yeast” beer? Seems the reference was there precociously, but not yet with the upcoming release.

    agree - I bought the dreamiest, vapor rings, double nelson day dream and green down to the socks - I thought vapor rings and even more so, dreamiest were VERY sweet... tasted great initially, but were cloying by the end of the pint... the need to dial the lactose back a bit (both in volume per can - and frequency of use...)

    Forever Simcoe was added this morning to seduce me to come down. Nice try OH. You can’t try to make up for all that lactose at the last minute and think it’s all ok.
