    Yeah, I found this thread early Sat morning at 4 am and read thru it and was going WTF with the spices, then remembered this shit from last year. Yeah it was time to go to bed

    IPA, plain ole ale, winter ale--whatever one calls it- the return of this gem every fall to enjoy and then have it end is welcomed like the falling of leaves and breaking out my fleece.

    Will go find it today.

    Thanks @SierraTerence

    And I am pretty sure that the Resilience IPA was close to Celebration also as far as the recipe was concerned.

    I agree. Resilience was first rate. Might need another Sierra Nevada beer to help out the NorCal residents being impacted right now by more fires.

    Seasonal? Feels like 80 with stifling humidity this morning.

    This is my first time trying Northern Hemisphere and I think it taste like Celebration before I even read this post. I can taste the wet hop but not that much. I really like it but I'd rather have the Celebration 12 pk. I kept some last yr Celebration in the fridge and it still holds up for a long time. You just gotta store it cold. I'm Iot even a huge SN fan but I could drink Celebration year round. I do drink Pale Ale yr rd.

    Getting through a box of Celebration is one of my favorite yearly traditions.

    I went into the beer store yesterday with a plan. Then I saw Celebration was out. The plan has changed. This is my favorite seasonal by any brewery, and it isn't particularly close.

    I’ll be picking some up as soon as I can find it. Those of you who have already found some, what’s the bottling date?

    Mine was around 10/12 (give or take a couple days as I am at work, and the beer unfortunately is not with me).

    I can remember in years past carving my Halloween pumpkin while drinking my first Celebration of the year. It was sort of a tradition... not this year as I cant find it....

    Celebration is probably my favorite hoppy beer of all time next to Two Hearted, can't wait for it to hit my market this year, hopefully sooner than later. We've had some freshness issues with SN beers lately it seems

    I'm late to the sarcasm party. At first, I thought someone was doing a long walk "Dune" joke about spices. So I'll share this. Enjoy.

    Bought my first 6er on Saturday, bottled 10/1/19. I have had 2 so far and cant say if it is any better than previous years but it is good.

    Seems it hasn't arrived in SE Florida yet.
    Maybe it'll be in by the weekend.
    I finished my last SN Oktorberfest on Sunday and I'm ready for this one.

    My motto is "See it, buy it". This signals the beginning of the holiday season!
