    I feel you get + for Hop Showers, but - for Triple and it cancels out?

    If you can drink 3 Hop Monsoons and still be able to pass a lactose taste test challenge, that is a 50 hop shower point bonus.

    I was going for +1 overall

    -2 for triple
    +2 for hop showers
    +1 for citra

    This is probably the only way I could actually pass the Tose Test.

    Nope, but I fixed it for you.

    Hop Showers always has citra and amarillo, right? It's just the DDH that changes? So does that mean Hop Showers starts at +3 HSP?

    Disagree on the +1 for Citra. Aren't Hop Showers points for bucking the trends?

    Ahh, good thing I just game up with a hop ranking system. Let's look back for where Amarillo was relative to Citra.... Minus 1 for any T1 hops, plus 1 for any T2, and plus 2 for any T3 (am open to discussing this). I had Amarillo as T3, though could see the case for T2.

    -2 for triple, +1 for not being a collab though, -1 for Citra, +2 for Amarillo, so 0 hop showers points for this beer, but not negative which seems appropriate.

    They just pushed the Green City pickup back to Wednesday because the boxes weren’t ready. Yeah keep the box, can I just pick my beer up tomorrow?

    Pickup for down here in MD is now Thursday. Would really rather have the beer tomorrow than a cardboard outer box that I'm just going to recycle.

    Gotta say I was expecting to see more sympathy here for the box collecting contingent. Internet people are so unpredictable!

    I mean the box looked cool and all, but the beer is what I spent the money on. I didn’t even realize there was a themed box until after already buying it.

    Hop monsoon is real good, all galaxy everything is real good, space diamonds is real good. The rold gold pretzels with my delivery order were crap.
