    This might be hard to get. Need to get a case to send to friends around the USA. Hopefully I can enjoy a couple cans.

    If last year is any indication this won't be hard to get. At all.

    Todd via Twitter has confirmed they are making less. It has also been confirmed they are using half as much hops as last year. Fair to infer they are making half as much. I wish it weren't so.

    We asked people at the brewery the day after the brewing started (you could still smell the hops through the door). Half the size this year, different hop blend.

    While I am amped for the 16th (when its supposed to be out), ill wait to see if i like the new hop choice.

    Does anyone know if France44 will be selling this? Or anyone able to ship some?

    Because nobody has ever tried a Centennial/Cascade beer before.:wink:

    Touche

    I bet I have as common as they are, but I couldn't say.
    Northern Hemisphere Harvest Ale?
    I know Lift Bridge Harvestor uses Cascade.
    I know last years Two Brothers Heavy Handed used Centennial.

    Most breweries don't disclose, and I think it changes (depending on availability) every year for most.

    I'm sure you are right because of how regular those hops are used.

    Didn't they use 100% citra last year? If i remember correctly... that was fantastic. But i like citra hops quite a bit,

    I think it was Simcoe and Citra, which is a deadly combo.

    last year was all simcoe, year before was all citra, year prior to that was citra/simcoe.

    It was Simcoe for 2012, and 2011 was Citra.

    Super pumped for this, 2011>2012, but 2012 was freaking delicious in it's own right. Went through 3-4 four packs just myself last year.
