    Just had my last green moss - fantastic. I liked it much more old than fresh. Heresy?

    Had my second to last one the other day. Thought it was fantastic. Toned down a bit. Really enjoyable.

    I like this batch of OSHV better than the last one. Not quite as sweet as the last batch, with more coconut and a little more bitterness. My favorite HB milkshake, I think.

    Finally having a can of Old School; Holy shit is it still great this year. Top notch if you like pineapple and coconut.

    Cosmic Fountain was the first HB I really enjoyed, aside from the slightly overpowering sweetness. If they dial that back, it would be top notch imo. Hoping that happens with this batch.

    Fountain dropped at Beer Cellar and had about 15 plus cases and maybe two cases of old school.

    I love how many Chicago-specific food references these guys work into their beers!

    I love how the the label for Beef Dipped uses the cow that the artist used on the Apocalypse Cow label for FFF

    I have multiple Grzeca prints hanging in my office, and the Apocalypse Cow was the first one I bought years ago. Been a fan ever since.
