    Also I had an FAQs last night. It's a little different from most of their recent haze. It's sweet and slightly bitter. That is, it's more bitter than most of these juice bombs, and was more bitter than the Space Diamonds I had before, but not quite as bitter as something like Grimm's Classic Rewind west coast series. In hindsight I should've only gotten 4 cans rather than 8, but oh well.

    Yes, we've all enjoyed the natural-fermentation, barrel-aged sours out of Rochester---so this will definitely happen.

    Bunch of BS!

    Did a bike delivery order today and got a Motueka Daydream instead of the Triple Motueka Chroma that I ordered. They owe me six bucks.

    Must have been twenty minutes behind you. Got caught on the damn 9th St bridge being raised.

    FAQ never went back "in stock" but it was on the menu when I got there. I didn't ask if they had any cause eight cans was enough for me but I probably should have just asked to swap out something. I could use more west coast style stuff in my life.
    Looking forward to trying Forever Diamonds.

    Ha, I don't want to be on the record saying it's west coast, just more bitter than typical.I'm eager to hear what you think though

    You're correct - I stretched your description. Didn't get any though so I will never know.
    I did however get Southern Hopalistic and it is surprisingly good; haven't had one since May 2018.

    I second that...I’m a big fan of Southern Hopalistic, such unique hop flavors you really won’t find elsewhere from other breweries.

    1. Any early opinions on Broccoli Rampage?
    • Do you guys like mixed bullet formats?
    1. a. Also anyone try the Strata from FLX that appears to have made it down?
    Yes I am day drinking.

    Ugh, I've been editing colleagues' documents all week with random tabs, indentations, and bullets. I can't handle your bullets especially "1.a."

    The 2021 thread will come with a style guide.

    Edit: and I'm torn on seeking Broccoli Rampage. Strata is outstanding and Cashmere solid, but the Comet is bound to be polarizing.

    Broccoli Rampage is very smooth for a 9% right out of the gate. I like it more than Forever Diamonds, which is very good too.

    I like space diamonds and think it is one of the better batches of late, but not best batch ever.
