    Not a fan of these new HB glasses. It's a nice tie-in to the beer, but I don't like the design (which is too bad, because I need a new glass).

    Cans all gone. I just missed it. Plenty of glasses available.

    I'm so happy the place by me is somewhat of a hidden gem... I was able to grab Tavern Cut and Unwind Your Mind among others that i couldn't even hope to grab at Binny's.

    Hi all. Does the brewery sell cans to-go or only in select stores? Thanks!!

    Sorry I'm an idiot. They brew out of Miskatonic. Miskatonic puts one of their kegs on very rarely. Other than that you cant buy HB there at all.

    Next 3 beers up on their website. An imperial brown, Mega Bite, and a new one ( I think) called Symbols of Math.

    Looks like a recipe simplification on mega bite. Pulling the motueka and hallertau. Just Citra and Amarillo now

    Hmmm...absolutely loved Megabite first time around so if this changes it significantly I will be sad. Imperial brown sounds intriguing...that the first time they’ve done that style?

    It's because the formula that works for them is 7.5% and 3 or less hops....

    I broke a Treehouse teku by barely going glass to glass a month ago. I’m still finding pieces of it around the kitchen lol

    See, that's just fate telling you your collection was stale.

    Also, Tavern Cut is fantastic. With that being said, it's right on the "green" line, so while I don't consider it that, I would imagine some people will prefer it in a few days.

    I had a Tavern Cut with a fresh palate today. I feel like it’s a 4.25 down the fairway. Just the definition of a 4 and a quarter beer.

    Hearing about people chasing trucks makes me realize how amazing my life is....I don't need to have a beer that bad... apparently flipping a beer to make barely $20 is a big deal...when you factor in gas used to chase such trucks, it's probably closer to making $10......how stupid
