    This batch of lumen is amazing. Liked it better than anything they had on draft.

    Duuuuuuuuude.....yes. Finishing off a can now and just delightful. Not sure how the draft was but this is dank with a nice fruity undertone. A little resin, nice bitterness on the back end. And 6.4% is a great ABV to get your session on.

    I was really surprised to walk into my local bottle shop to pick up the new Industrial Arts can and saw a case of Lumen sitting on the stack of new arrivals. It's the first time in a long time I've seen Grimm cans in Rockland. Hopefully they get more!

    In Atlanta for work and to my surprise the bottle shop near my hotel has a bunch of Grimm bottles on the shelf. I had no idea they had distro outta state let alone all the way down here.

    I think some of their bottles used to make it down to Florida too

    Yeah, I saw Grimm bottles at a Leuken's in the St. Pete area. I've found Grimm bottles as far as San Francisco, I think distributed by Shelton Bros. I felt it was my duty to repatriate those BB Double Neg bottles back to NYC!

    Saw some Grimm in Memphis last month, but was pre brewery stuff.

    St. Louis has the odd sour bottle or two. I think I saw Double Negative too

    Had a can of both Tetraplex and Lumen and they are drinking amazing right now. Hit all the right notes for what I’m looking for in a triple and a single. Well done.

    Easy pass on this one.

    I'm no purist, but Afterimage has always been great on its own. Will seek out a can and hope that they can prove me wrong.

    Totes picking up the bottle. Might try Afterimage on tap and decide from there if it's worth a 4 pack buy

    Many other Breweries do it also so I can't fault Grimm but if they were charging $12 for a can of this same beer there would be rioting in the streets of Williamsburg. Somehow the glass vessel can command more $ for basically the same amount of beer (and people will pay it no questions asked).

    I would assume the coffee has something to do with it. Sey coffee is pretty expensive(especially any of the Kenyan beans). Plus Evil Twin just put out 4-packs with their coffee at $20. So maybe that swayed it too.

    The truffles they're putting out are a pretty good deal. They usually go for $16 for 4. I just wish they were coming out before Valentines because I'm not gonna have time to swing by day of.

    Also Afterimage+raspberries seems like a pretty sure combo no?
