    I'm hungover just from reading about those Green City beers.

    If it's any consolation I'm not crazy about this batch of Mylar. It's not necessarily bad, but I much preferred the batch prior. Had one alongside a Forever Simcoe last night and Simcoe was the clear winner.

    IIRC I'm pretty sure there will be a Thursday release along with VIP pickups for the Fest.

    Believe this is correct, I think they also said there would be a normal Sat release as well. Which would be different from last year when they did Green City

    A bit late to post this, but thanks to the folks who recommended Always & Forever! I didn’t think Forever Ever was good so never went for it but it’s incredible, wish I’d bought more than 2 four packs.

    So what are the odds the triple space diamonds is an improvement on the last attempt? Seems like most people didn't think much of it, with it being bitter and boozy. Anyone have experience with them significantly initiating a fairly meh triple?

    I think I heard that they tinkered with Feels Like Outerspace after the first batch.

    Considering the cans are about 6 to 8 pounds overseas that's crazy good

    Jesus, and I thought the retail markup on Singlecut was expensive.

    Yea I didn't bring any back when I went to Cloudwater's taproom in London since the DIPA cans like the OH/Monkish/The Veil cans were £8 each, and they are only 440ml, pretty insane.

    I think that's government mark-up.

    I gotta say that even though I don't go to these beer festivals OH does, the events bring incredible beers from all over the world to their taproom and other bars, and stir up collabs all of which locals benefit from, and I love that, and am glad OH is doing the festival thing.

    I'm with you... I'll spend my hundreds on all the collabs and drink my IPAs over the coming weeks with no killer hangover.

    Hey y’all, planning a visit next month. Does OH still get the long lines Saturday AM? And would you say waiting in line is necessary to score every beer on a saturday release? Do they still sell out same day? Also how common is it for a few to be left over from day the week before? Looking to go all in on a big haul with max variety.

    Another question. Anyone ever get to other half early and then make it out to Hudson valley for the noon Saturday release. Wondering if this would even work logistically. Not sure how fast hvb sells out
