    Wow that went faster than I expected, guess its cause they sent some up to Rochester? When are they going to send cans the other way?

    Maybe Bissell took some too. Based on early reviews, I can't imagine there being a huge demand here.

    That's what I'm guessing. Limits for the two Bissell Bros collabs were at 4x 4 packs PP.

    I find it strange that OH is still shipping up big pallets of cans from BK when they're putting out 4 cans a week on-premise. Would be nice to get some kegs down here, at least.

    On my way now. Should I turn around and get my pitchfork?

    Cheesecake is as advertised? There is a ton of cherry, tartness, a nice finish, but getting through a can would be hard.

    Edit: its really sweet

    I was in and out with no wait at 10:45 but there was a not so even trade off. I’m assuming all the people not at OH today were instead crawling there way down the parkway.

    Agreed, super good. Though I will say, Butter imo is better than just OK. It's Other Half OK, which means pretty good. Also nice to be able to switch to something sub 7% so I don't fall asleep at 7pm today.

    yeah the taproom the last few weekends has been nice and slow, love rolling in late grabbing what I want and being able to have room to chill out. Stopped in around Noon yesterday too and it was practically empty.

    I thought it was good, but not great. Very creamy and smooth, but not as good as the other Daydream beers or other Motueka beers they have done. Motueka + Galaxy was really good or at least from what I thought at the time. I got a 4-pack because my cousin wanted to try some, so I will see how it is out of the can this week. Otherwise I would have been satisfied with just the small pour in the taproom.

    Looks like a couple Rochester beers on tap, Plates on Plates, and If You Like Double IPA we Brewed a Double IPA.

    Regarding the second beer, Evil Twin can keep that naming convention.

    What did I miss is pop culture that gave new life to that AI quote the past few months?

    I hope the midweek drop is good, do we really need a gatorade IPA though?
