    3 Sons is kinda hilarious to be the comparison when everybody dumped their membership a few years ago.

    I guess they severely improved it.

    They've always offered full/early access to their BA beers. It's just they were 50% sludge for a couple years.

    We prefer the term “protein”.

    I only started drinking 3 Sons a couple years ago. Everything I’ve had from them has been great. But to each they own!

    Looks like the Veil IPA collab isn’t getting great reviews

    I had a pour at the brewery yesterday. Thought it was perfectly okay, but didn't love it. Couldn't exactly put my finger on why. Maybe the honey.

    I almost always prefer a double IPA to a triple. Once you hit that 10% ABV it starts to get very alcohol-y

    I'll second that...8-8.5% abv is the sweet spot for me. Very few 10% and above tipas don't have that alcohol/citrus/sweet burn.

    I'm glad they re-brewed - my on-site encounter with blend 1 of this beer was unfortunately an experience in green pepper.

    I didn't know they were all releasing it again. Veil has a black truffles and vanilla beans one it appears. I live close by so if anyone wants one lmk.

    And the recipe stayed the same, I’m excited
