    Mylar is my favorite. Of course, it wasn't yet available for my delivery that is coming today. HOW DARE I HAVE TO MILDY SETTLE FOR A ONLY A "PRETTY-GOOD" BEER DELIVERY DURING A PANDEMIC!?

    Saw this. Things of note: it adds a tax but doesn't appear to add into the total which is odd but neat. Default tip is set to 20%. I'm guessing that's a square thing? I usually tipped $1 per 4 pack during normal times when I ran by to shop.

    This batch of Broccoli is delicious. Super soft and smooth. Broccoli is usually a bit more zippy and dank...from what I recall.

    6) The current batch of __________ isn't as good as the last batch, which wasn't even close to as good as the batch before that.

    Nice batch of Mosaic+Motueka. Some dank stone fruit, nice and clean body (no lactose!). Will report back tomorrow on Mylar impressions.

    Was making dinner and had to pause and advise that this is not peak Mylar. Has this earthiness to it I was getting from the Space Diamonds. I think their current stock of Galaxy is reaching the end of its useful life and going forward recommend caution buying any beers with Galaxy in it.

    Speaking of which, and I know I've asked this before, when's the hop harvest in the Southern hemisphere? Is that capitalized correctly? Gotta get back to cookin'.

    Yeah the Far Out Spaced Out or whatever its called, split a 4 pack with my buddy and I know someone here said it was getting better. Cracked my first can monday and it was just not good

    think hop harvest in Southern Hemisphere (capitalization per iPhone) is April / May based on having big brekkie sando the end of May last year.
    . . . [relative] bummer that this Mylar isn’t a 10.

    Re: Galaxy. This post is from a thread in the main forum. I believe Honkey is a professional brewer and often has a lot of useful info to share.

    Honkey (name notwithstanding) sounds like my kind of brewer!

    Some quarantine experiments to consider:

    1. Galaxy Corrective Cuvvees
    2. Dalgona Coffee + OH Stouts
    3. #2 for breakfast

    I'll get to work on these but as a laboratory of one I'm gonna need some help to corroborate these results so anyone willing and able, please report back.

    Woo, Peter on the spot with the delivery. This should always be an option. :grinning:

    And our #OtherHalfHatesLocals item of the week, can we discuss the markup on those chips? OH isn't a brewery, they distribute chips at this point!
