    Has anyone heard any info on when Heavy Machinery is set to drop? I've had it at a couple of places and I can't wait to buy a few 4-packs.

    They're having issues getting the cans ready. Can't happen soon enough.

    Signed off on the final can designs today. Now we're in line for production and will hopefully have cans in house within the next few weeks.

    Barring any other major setbacks, cans will be on shelves in May.

    While you're waiting they're doing growler fills of it right now at the Growler Room (assuming you're in the Austin area)

    Heavy Machinery is the truth. It went fast at The Growler Room and it's gone from Pinthouse, too.

    Yes! We just received word that our cans will be delivered a week from today.

    The first beer we'll have available will be a Double IPA. It's in the tank right now. Yesterday we dry hopped it with 150lbs of Amarillo and 150lbs of Citra (it's approximately a 50bbl batch). It will be right around 9.8%ABV and should be on the shelves before the end of the month.

    I heard tell that Heavy Machinery is going to rotate styles a few times a year, with labels on the bottom of the can IDing the style and date. True?

    They're going to have outer boxes (think: Sixpoint), so they could just put it there.

    Double IPA? I'm guessing Austin went through all of the Black IPA before it even came out in cans? lol
