    I saw they briefly posted an IPA collab with Side project so I assume we'll be seeing that this week too

    It wasn’t Judge Reinhold by any chance, was it?

    Lol, between Afterimage and Lambo at Grimm and Space Diamonds and Forever Simcoe here I’m basically begging my buddy to pick up for me. Son of a bitch is resisting.

    Space Diamonds finally comes back... but the world is upside down.

    Hope everyone is well.

    Looks like St Gambrinus is getting an Other Half drop tomorrow.

    Hopefully better than last batch, the last batch of my triple crown of OH beers (ACE,SD,Mylar) have all been substandard.

    Cracked a Space Diamonds...such a delicious beer. There's def some green/earthiness to it that I think OH sometimes rounds off a little better sometimes but it's not unpleasant at all. That said I didn't have any of the last batch so can't speak to how it compares.

    And in these strange uncertain times, I'm just super grateful to have these fresh ass IPA's to lean into when the urge strikes me.

    Wish I could order some OH, like I can order some Grimm to my door. Unfortunately, it comes out to nearly a $30 a 4-pack. Slightly less than "Cost+10"

    Lambo Door x 2
    $40.00
    Afterimage x1
    $20.00

    $60.00
    Tax

    $5.33
    Service Fee
    $9.00
    Delivery Fee
    $7.99
    Courier Tip
    $5.00
    Total
    $87.32


    Even cooler, is that cocktail bars like Please Don't Tell are selling their famous cocktails to go. Need to stock on Benton's Old Fashioned for $12 a pop...

    And they’re selling them by the keg!

    That’s pretty great, and their delivery footprint is pretty big I think. Threes does the same, right?
    Does tax get added twice with Caviar though?

    brewery in town by me is doing self-delivery - tax only. I kinda feel like a jerk cause I don't have cash for tip; so I purchased a few stickers..

    beer is no where near OH, but it's good enough with a nice variety.

    Don't think so? But, I didn't order yet. Was hoping that OH cans would start popping up somewhere near Midtown.

    I also don't know where the Grimm cans are coming from, like, $5 tip from BK -> Manhattan would be stupid low...

    Had ACE and Mylar tonight, both disappointing, what is going on there? Both are so uneven in overall quality. ACE boozy, thin in places, no creaminess. Mylar has a plastic, musty smell and lacking overall well rounded taste and smoothness.

    yes, I know small problems in the grand scheme of things.
