    You guys should have been the one to purchase Once Upon A Time In Shaolin. Imagine that marketing potential!

    Any dating going to be present on the bottles in the future? Sure would be nice with such awesome hoppy beers.... Found Bombers of Hubert for $4.99 today! Score!!

    The bottles in ID have been sort of a test run and we still need to get a date coder. We will be switching mostly to cans soon, which will have the date printed on the bottom of each can. Killer Bees hitting distro this week!

    A tiny place out my way, the Royal Hilltop, had Hubert the other day. They kicked it almost instantly, too.
    Glad to see how widespread Melvin has been thus far. No need to drive all the way to Boulder or downtown FTW.

    Downing a Mos Def at Thai Me Up right now. Holy shitballs is it phenomenal. Fresh Hop Double 100+ IBU 9.5% that goes down like water. Such a well executed beer. Buttery citrus explosion. Keep licking the inside of my mouth and it's like I'm tasting fresh squeezed orange juice.

    mmm buttery...wait, what? Buttery in a beer description is not good. Was it really buttery?

    Should have used creamy... No taste of butter

    Park Burger in RiNo/Ballpark had 2x4 and Hubert (and maybe something else?) on last night if anyone is looking.

    This is one of the first new distros I've been excited for in a while. Normally I let the shitstorm blow over, but when these hit, I'll be on the streets.

    Yeah that's what I've seen. Price is creeping up out of my reach. With what Odd13 is putting out for $1 less I get 6 cans. Or the same price for a 4pk of LK tall boys.

    I'll buy some but it will be less then I would at the $10 range

    We had a great beer dinner at Backcountry last night, not sure, but there might be some leftover rare goodness if anyone is in the area today. Still on target for our April 1 can release! Yes, 2x4 will be in a 12oz. 4 pack for around $11.99. It is a 10% ABV Imperial IPA with an absurd amount of hops, so no, we can't do $10 six packs. Don't think you'll find too many quality DIPAs in that price range...

    Neither Lizard King nor anything I've had from Odd13 is anywhere close to the quality of the Melvin beers I've had. I'm all for getting the best value for my dollar but if the quality in the cans matches the draft then I think this is fair.

    Good thing we have different tastes. There will be more beer on the shelves for you.

    And do I like the Melvin beers, yes.
