    At the brewpub?

    EDIT: I might be swinging by tomorrow so I thought I would look at the menu online, Anti-Hero isn't on the draft list. It could be on tap, I'm just saying online it's not and it seemed strange.

    Shit, sorry. Misread, assumed you meant the taproom.

    Per their Twitter, all the draft variant kegs at the taproom are gone.

    Where do you hide in the taproom when they close it for the night?

    I was there around open. We must've been in there at the same time. Headed to brewpub around 1:45 or so. Mixed Berry Ryeway was on too. Along with the all 3 from the recent release. DBXOD was great. Dread was probably my favorite from the recent release, but I need a full pour, more time, and a cleaner palate for bigger thoughts here on all 3. LJ was better than I expected. Followed up right after the thrashing DBXOD gave my tastebuds, it just tasted like Juicey Juice. Developed into pineapple upside-down cake after a bit.

    Cuvee 4 packs were being sold IP at both locations today. The crispy chicken sandwich was excellent. Not sure if a nap or early bed time is in order. Unfortunately my beer nerd Choose Your Own Adventure Sunday night has me packing a beer box. So probably neither.

    Cheers to Super Zero. Cool can art. I enjoyed it and will definitely be buying when it hits the market. DM me for hand modeling inquiries. Will connect you with my agent.

    You are like Schrodinger's Cat, but instead of being simultaneously alive and dead you are somehow simultaneously always in the Rev Taproom and at Hopleaf...

    I probably skipped over some insightful reviews of Super Zero, but here’s my fresh take. As someone who has multiple Spindrift and Hoppy Refresher flavors in my fridge and drinks those instead of beer 3-4 nights a week, I think Super Zero is flavorful, crisp and enjoyable, and different enough from those two that I’ll probably be buying it regularly as another option, once available. It has scratched my itch for an IPA-like beverage better than Hoppy Refresher.

    For demographic purposes, I don’t drink any NA beer and not at all interested in it (I’ll go for a lager or pale ale instead if I’m in a lighter kind of mood) and I haven’t regularly drank any kind of soda over the past 20 years. So my beverage intake is pretty much water, coffee, beer, and sparkling water. In descending order.

    My day pretty much goes in the following order: coffee, water, sparkling water, then a beer or neat bourbon most evenings. It's a pretty good formula. Sometimes I'll reach for a hop water instead of alcohol.

    I was surprised how much I liked the Super Zero. I honestly am enjoying this hop water more than most IPA's that I try/drink nowadays. Honestly, I will probably buy more Super Zero. Central Waters also has a hop water that is pretty great, but I think that Super Zero is just a little bit better to me.

    Yeah, I've cracked 2 of my 6 cans, and I'm already starting to sweat thinking about this initial taproom batch running out...
