    I’ve noticed the same thing although I have been able to finagle a spot here and there, especially a little earlier in the day.

    I had a pint of Bayonne Bleeder tonight and was very impressed! I thought it was very comparable to SN Celebration but with a higher ABV.

    Had the Blonde (Bowcraft) this afternoon. Top shelf brew IMO.

    Drinking it now - very nice. They’re only serving it in 8oz, but definitely let it warm up a bit. Nice and rich - roasty with some nice sweetness. Sipper, for sure.

    This variation of Nosh is very nice too. I’m amazed how much Lemon Drop hops actually taste like lemon drop, lol.

    Gotta get back there soon. TE and Conclave are the only two places I get growler fills with all the canned options everywhere these days.

    This version of Diamonds and Pearls is interesting. I like the ginger and cinnamon notes; neither overpowers the other, but you can taste them both on top of the base beer

    Had the Cream Ale yesterday. Pretty tasty, a touch sweet with no real adjunct-y flavor. a little lager spice for some crispness.

    Had one of these on Thursday and really enjoyed it. The honey added a noticeable sweetness to the beer but it totally worked.

    I also had a Bowcraft (Belgian Blond). The flavors were on point but the beer was served to me with zero head on it which was disappointing. Very promising brew though if they get that issue figured out.

    Been waaaaay too long since I visited TEB.

    Questions for folks more in the know...does there seem to be any chance they'll be canning Diamonds and Pearls again in the near future?
