    I live extremely close, love frequenting the place, staff is great, but the product is so mediocre

    Was just at Miskatonic, that next milkshake apparently has apricot, blackberry, Graham cracker and vanilla.

    Agree. I’d love to be more enthusiastic about my local brewery but most of their beers aren’t anything special.

    About 4 cases or so of Double Grid at Binny's Grand. One 4 pack per person. Over by the refrigerated beer back in the corner.

    I’m still scarred from receiving a four pack of a Solemn Oath NEIPA last summer and all 4 cans were shitty brown and tasted like uncarbonated Diet Coke. Can’t think of the name but yeah, not great Bob.

    Damn. I love Double Grid. Always a day late on HB drops. I'll be in Carol Stream/Bloomingdale area for the weekend starting tomorrow night, but I'm guessing you savages will be all over it well before then. Much appreciated if anyone has intel to help a brother out come tomorrow night...

    Encouraging for sure. I know too much though and am too much of a realist.

    Double Grid is tasting mighty fine! Tropical fruit and a little dank.

    Love how they’re hiding lactose additions. It’s a good thing lactose doesn’t cause any harm to anyone.

    Maybe try Bloomingdale and STC Binny’s?

    Bloomingdale Binny's is my usual go to. Or Beer Cellar, but I'm guessing they get hit hard.
