    Awesome info! Thanks. I will be in Brooklyn (about a mile from OH) for a wedding this weekend. Will definitely hit up the tap room at least once. Seems like there will be no cans this weekend 8/8, which is a bummer. Is there a growler limit?

    All credit goes to @Kanger for this list. Not sure on a growler limit, I don't think so. Although I have seen occasional times where they limited AGE to 32 ounces and probably with some one off beers.

    I don't think there is a growler limit, but just be aware that a lot of growlers take a long time to fill with the counter pressure system.

    Thanks! Long time to fill = more time to drink tastings! I should have pliantly of extra time, my wife will be doing lots of sister of the bride stuff all day Friday and Saturday up until the wedding Sat. night.

    Oh god I hope not. The Centennial IPA from earlier this year was a lemony mess

    I actually thought the centennial was pretty good considering the fact that I'm not a big fan of that hop. I'm not sure about the single hop releases but I'm guessing they're gonna release their standard ipa in cans next.

    I enjoyed the Centennial. Much better than Founders if that means anything.

    The text of the post says "Release coming soon in Boston." We're not getting any down here?

    New beer at the taproom tonight called "All That and Then Some."

    All That and Then Some- 9.5%, 100 IBUs. Double IPA with Green Bullet, Topaz, Equinox, Simcoe, and Nelson Sauvin hops. And then some...

    I put a post asking @JCTetreault in the Trillium thread over in the New England forum. No response yet. Asked if it was growlers or bottles and if any would be down here. Not sure why OH wouldn't have it on tap for a little bit (which would sell out quickly).

    Earlier in the Trillium thread it was said that they are bottling it. I don't know if any kegs (or bottles) will make it to NYC though.

    Well one reason we prob won't see any down here is that someone from OH would need to go up to Boston to pick it up. So unless Trillium ships some down to us, I doubt we'll see much of it.

    Since Trillium isn't distributed to NYC they'll probably just have draft available at OH

    the amtrak's also not a bad option. it's only about a 10 min walk from the train station in boston to trillium.
