    They replied to an IG comment saying more will be added to the shipping list.

    Ultimate Beats and Whale Watching are both incredible IPA's, some of the best best beers Finback has made. They are upping their game in Glendale

    It would have been great to get them but they still haven’t added them to their shipping list (along with the Grass DIPA) and now my money has gone to Threes.

    Can’t edit my last post but these fuckers just added them (not the Wakefield beer). Haha

    If you need any Finback I'm happy to send. I buy their beer by the case because it's that good

    Shocked that Finback has only 1 and a half pages for 2020. Better IPAs than OH and Grimm by a mile. #comeatmebro

    Went today after a long week of work. Was the only person there and was in and out in 1 minute. Got Ultimate Beats, Fields and Floating Future. Had a can of all three tonight. Ultimate Beats was exactly as expected - an amped up Miami Beats and delicious. Floating Future was the best though, IMO.

    Smooth Beats Miami is my literal favorite beer of all time so I'm skeptical that they can do anything to improve it but I'm still very excited to check out Ultimate Beats,

    Honestly I’d love to do a side by side comparison but I think I may like Ultimate better. It was super juicy and the coconut flavoring was identical to Miami.

    Yeah...with all the positive comments and due to the fact I’ll be home my entire vacation thus spending little to no money I splurged a bit and got 4s of Whale Watching and Fields of Tall Grass. Between that and the Threes stuff I got a full case of goodies coming right to my door in the next couple of days. I’ve been working a lot lately, dealing with the public and whatnot, fuck it...I deserve it.

    Finback killing it by offering mixed 4-packs. Love to see it.

    Anyone else order by mail? I'm in Brooklyn (very close to a delivery zone) so I reached out asking if they would deliver and was told yes. Unfortunately the website wouldn't let me check out, I guess because of my address, and I haven't heard back from them so I just did the NYS delivery option. Do you actually have to interact with someone or will they leave it in my lobby?

    You’re gonna have to sign something and show you’re at least 21. If you don’t you’ll probably have to go and pick it up from the nearest UPS store.

    When UPS delivered my Equilibrium, instructions from EQ said must sign , but UPS never even knocked on the door and just left it. Given what’s going on I doubt they want to interact with people.

    That makes sense. Still, the odds of someone being home when my Suarez arrives: 110%!

    That’s a COVID thing?
