    I'll second this, but the Twisted Galaxy they released at the same time was one of my favorites. Crossing fingers for that soon.

    Agreed. It was so bitter and quite boozy from what I remember.

    Exactly how I remember it.

    I still have a bottle.

    I guess I was one of the guys on the opposite side. I thought Twisted Galaxy was overly bitter and I liked IGN better.

    I loved Intergalactic Warrior and await the return of that one!

    Imperial gNug was Mike's work, right? Could have had something going on in the brite tank that didn't translate to package but I remember it being remarkably unaromatic.

    IGW bottling and preceding draft batches have all been great. Batch variation is real, like the agricultural products in the beer itself.

    TimeHop app on my phone reminded me that 3 years ago today I drove down for Assassin. Guess I should drink that last bottle...

    And they're doing a firkin Of SueZee, which hopefully means a new batch of Nelson has hit the brewery.

    Looks like Sol Hunter is on the list soon as well. Love me some equinox.

    Sounds like SOSUS will hit distro, woo hoo! Also, does anyone know if TG is going to DLD? Is that what prompted a brewing of SOSUS?

    Mike said it might be hard to make it before DLD.

    Mike is going to DLD, he replied to someone on Twitter saying he would be there. He was there last year too though while not employed at TG so that doesn't mean he's bringing anything.

    Mmmm, I hope some of those make it to the Twin Cities area.

    Does anyone know the dates on the Pompeii and X-Hops bottles out right now?

    Xhops is probably early March. Pompeii is most likely either 3/29 or 4/11.
