    Above is the label for a new 12oz offering coming from Oskar Blues. I wonder what style this will be? :slight_smile:

    This will be a new IPA from OB that will clock in at 6.43% abv. No word when this will be coming or if it will hit national distro, so we'll have to wait and see. One thing is for sure, with their knack at hoppy beers, this will likely be a great addition to their already stellar lineup.

    Lagunitas already working on that cease-and-desist.

    As good as Osker Blues is, I overlook them far too often. Hoping to get to try this one

    And thus lower in alcohol than their Dale's Pale Ale.

    Can they just can BA Ten Fidy instead? I've never been a fan of their hoppy offerings.

    More evidence of the IPA fad. Please make it stop. There's a nice home for you right next to Croc's, Toe Shoes, Livestrong Bracelets and Beanie Babies. (wait, were those Croc's the one-off seasonal brewers limited hoppy edition? We can keep those.....ha ha ha!!!!)

    A fad? Yeah, because IPAs are new and won't be around in 3 years.

    IPAs have been very popular for going on a decade or more now. Not sure how that's a fad?

    Typo! Adjusted. I meant new. Why would hop heads care? You are the one that sounds butt hurt.

    Agreed. None of their beers are bad, but really one is enough. Certainly a 6-pack is enough for me!

    Ten fidy is solid, and I've not had some of their other non hoppy ones

    About as unexciting an offering as is possible from OB...or any established brewery for that matter.

    Although having it canned would be awesome. The least they could do is put it on tap at the Weasel so I can get me ALL the crowlers!!

    Seems redundant, but I'm in for a sixer. Pinner's been a new go-to for me, so who knows!
