    Pretty wild but there was an Alpine Dinner at HopCat East Lansing last Thursday. Had a pint of Nelson and Duet, my wife did as well. $40 dollars for those four drafts however, the bartender filled a growler of Nelson and Duet for $9 dollars each in my local brewery growlers.....$18 dollars total for a growler fill of Nelson and Duet in Michigan

    I've also seen a large difference in growler vs glass fills of alpine. I imagine it has to do with overhead.

    It's also a limit of 3 bottles of Nelson, so there probably is a mule, err..., S.O. involved.

    This!



    On another note: the alpine brewed hoppy birthday was delicious. Keene was amazing but the Nelson was off

    I know the feeling. Mine just doesn't like beer, she's in the trade working as a sales rep for a distribution company.

    Felt the same about the Nelson when I grabbed some last weekend. Wasn't great.

    Wrapping up a growler of Keene Idea and it's delicious. But every sip has me second guessing, "is this really that good or am I crazy and Green Flash killed it?" And by killed it, I mean I think it's good, but it's not because Green Flash produced it. (I know it was Alpine, I live here, just saying). Swirling heads.

    Just had Duet the other night for the first time. In my opinion, I like the taste more than Keene.
