    Very well run covid setup at north park beer co last night! Had a pour of party cup and mosaic, robot fighter. Party cup was fantastic as always. Mosaic, robot fighter was outstanding. True representation of the hop with blueberry for days! I noticed some yakima hop boxes in the back. Great crops this year! Paired the beers with Mastiff's nashville hot chicken sandwich and pig fries. Definitely 1 of the better covid dine in experiences I've had lately.

    Seconded the above view about X-Raying Flowers, saturated in the best way. Any idea when Peach Whip will be back? The beer podcast I listen to was talking about it and it sounded truly amazing!

    Came on here to say that these guys are killing it. My neighborhood bottle shop gets in a plethora of NP goodness since this pandemic started. Hop fu is my ish now. That strata rocket was so dang tasty too. Tikicito was a tropical cocktail in a can, so delicious. However my shop sells most of the four packs at 27.99 (little overkill) I still purchase 2 four packs a week.
    Keep up the delicious suds!

    You'd probably be better off just buying directly from them and paying for shipping instead of paying $28/4-pack to be honest. That's almost $10 more than most of their 4-pack prices.

    I ordered delivery from NP 3 weeks in a row! They have risen to be perhaps my favorite SD brewery.

    I just got introduced to these guys a while back, killer stuff. Windsor in Costa Mesa has been keeping a steady supply of NPB that's making me mega happy.

    Whew, that was painful fighting with other beer nerds and eventbrite this morning to get that new BA triple vanilla hazelnut macaroons before dying bottle.

    Curious if the bottle count is around 300 as it typically is or if more of the brew went into barrels for the triple vanilla release. In my circle at least, seems like more winners

    Bottle count is 400, per Instagram. Seems like more of my friends scored than the last couple releases, I think both the bigger bottle count and 1pp limit helped a lot. Stoked to get a bottle, can't wait to try it!

    I was in the middle of a conference, but I thought I'd take a shot at buying a bottle. Shocked it went through.

    Was shipping available? I assumed it was pickup only, so passed, but was very tempted. If I could get it shipped I'd have definitely tried.

    I don’t think so. I only made the purchase because I’ll be in town during the pickup period.

    No shipping & no proxies for this sale.

    If this version in bottles is anything like what they had at Pastrytown, it'll be fantastic. It was my favorite pastry stout at Pastrytown this year. Super jealous of you locals, as the trade value is already looking way out of reach for me.

    Glad you liked it! This release is the same batch/base beer that we served at Pastrytown, except it had an extra 3 months in bourbon barrel aged vanilla extract barrels. All of the adjunct treatment remained the same and at the same dosing rates with the exception of the coffee. Omitting the coffee allowed the coconuts and hazelnuts to shine a bit more independently.

    Is there a newsletter for these releases? Would definitely have grabbed it, but didn't know as i'm not on social media.

    Easy for you to say. I got in at 10:00:15 and was shut out.

    I got an email, don't remember if I started receiving them after ordering a case from them but I'm guessing there's a way to join on their website.
