    Finally. I did not even check bottle dates. I am assuming it's a pretty fresh batch. Cool Boston tea party themed packaging/labels. Same recipe correct?

    I got mine at Wegmans Northboro $10.50 for 4 pack. Having one now. So good. Pretty sure its the Simcoe that comes through on nose. Super bitter in a good way.

    With Double Dose, Limbo, and Dirt Wolf. I forgot how good Mass Rising is!

    I picked some up at Martignetti's in Brighton over the weekend. I'm stoked with the 12 oz. format too. For some reason, in any given instance my mind may tell me that 16 oz of an 8% brew is more than I want right then but that 12 oz of same is always just fine. Thank you, Jack's Abby, for finding a way around my magical thinking.

    Wegmans and Julios both had them yesterday. The first one tasted amazing too.

    Seen it on the shelves at Bogies in Beverly. Pretty sure it was priced somewhere around $11.

    in 4/6 pks of 12oz bottles?
    All I've seen is the older 16oz 4pk's or 16oz singles.

    Would be awesome if the 12oz stuff has made it's way here

    This batch of 4-packs will likely not be making it to Vermont, but it will be coming out regularly from now on and it we hope to get it out of state before too long.

    Wow having the rest of my 4 pack tonight! This is awesome beer. I know it's fresh but its better than the 16oz Mass Rising release. Its closer to the fresh 2nd Anni bottles. Killer DIPL. This is a world class brew

    You realize that you're imagining these differences/similarities, don't you? There is no difference in recipe between 16oz Mass Rising and 12oz ones (@JacksAbbyBrewing, correct me if I'm wrong). But there is a difference, albeit a very small one, between Mass Rising and 2nd Anniversary.
