Tired Hands (2020)

I'm going to guess the line is because they are hosting a Troon Burger pop-up at the Fermentaria today. Rumor has it Bonn Place is there too with crowlers of Mooey.

 

Yea could be not sure didn’t see them or troon burger set up, but they prob will be later on- A ton of ppl picking up the vanilla/mango/guava triple milkshake

 

But don't you know that English Bitters aren't cool?

Hidden River's cans of IPA normally last a week or maybe two. They released a Bitter around the July 4th weekend and it's still on the list of their available cans. The beer was pretty good, but unfortunately most people just want more iterations on very similar IPAs.

 

Triple milkshake doesn't hurt, but it's definitely TROON driven. I mean those seltzers sold out fast. Now, once the HYPEBOIZ get there, yeah, a triple milkshake is going to sell just fine.

 

Is White Claw the new milkshake?

 

Anyone hear any rumors going around as to whether or not Gatherer will be released this year?

 

Wow I ordered Dudley Direct for the first time yesterday since moving back to the area and it was already delivered to Downingtown this morning. Read some horror stories around wait times, but this was super convenient and I’m definitely going to be using this again!

 

I’ve had nothing but great experiences with DD, getting orders in the Poconos 1-2 days after placing them.

 

Anyone have any comments on Ph0phy? Interested to know what people think of that new hop from Australia that they used in it, HPA-016. I’ve brewed with it a few times and it’s rather interesting but never had any commercial beers with it and Ph0phy is the only one I can find in the US that’s used it.

 

I had the experimental hop version when it first came out and I remember it being very good though not particularly different from other Galaxy hazies. I still have one more can, will drink later this week while paying more attention.

 

DDH AC is amazing. Bought a 4 pack, I need more.

 

I drank my last Phopy2, and compared it (i.e., double-fisted) with the other IPA with Galaxy they did recently, Newel. Hard to say how much the experimental hop was responsible for, but Phophy had more sweetness and tropical fruit, some pineapple and citrus with your expected grapefruit notes.

 

Anyone tried the pale ale or DIPA they released with Riwaka this week?

 

I wonder wondering the same. Was thinking of hitting up St. Oner’s today but their selection is so massive right now it’s tough to pick what I want lol

 

Will answer my own question. Drinking my first Intronaut now and really like it. For reference my Tired Hands experience is love HopHands, like AC, and pass on most of the DIPAs I've tried. Would have bought more than a 4 pack easily. If the DMT is a scaled up version of this as advertised I'm optimistic.

Agree that the wide selection makes for some tough decisions. Ended up walking away with 13 different beers largely due to the lagers and canned saisons in the mix that I don't feel rushed to get through right away.

 

Wow, just looked at the can selection today. What a list of available cans.

So big question, Grassman, Punge, Oblivex and Death Tripper. Pick two. I'm going Death Tripper and Punge.

 

Punge for sure and a toss up between grassman and oblivex. I probably lean grassman but . . .

 

I’m enjoying a Trendler pils from the batch prior to the latest (canned 7/31/20). Every time I have this beer I wonder why I don’t buy it more often. I’d put this pils up against any in the region. It’s that good.

I’m going with your choice. I have a real soft spot for Death Tripper. Such a great beer. I had my first Punge recently and, as amazingly delicious as it was, I’m not sure if I liked it more than DT. Maybe I’m just not as big of a DIPA fan as I used to be. Different strokes, different folks.

 

Are they going to put out an Oktoberfest this year? I know last year it was released a little later then most.
