    We were looking at the Cranberry Sour, though based on your post it sounds like that's not available anymore. Might have to go the Berliner route in that case!

    Semi disappointed to see them reply to the IG post saying these won't likely be released til mid-June. Was hoping to try the
    Graham Cracker BA Framinghammer this weekend

    Here's my appreciation: two sweet glasses and a log of House Lager. Slightly disappointed it was kegged 3/21 (fresher cans available) but still delicious.

    Two months of additional lagering for this beer is going to be fine.

    Pale lagers aren't a style I tend to like, but the JA House Lager is the best I've had (Weihenstephaner 1512 is also very good) . I gave some to my father in law, who drinks Miller Genuine Draft and Molson Golden, and he loved it and was going to buy some. I plan to always keep it on hand for those days I want such a beer, and to hopefully create more converts.

    Yeah, tasted spectacular last night. Was just surprised when I picked it up seeing as cans dated late April are in town. Hard to break that damn mentality that all beer needs to be less than a month old.

    Are all of the variants still available at the brewery?

    I had my first coffee Framinghammer yesterday. God damn, son. That's world-class, BCBCS/KBS hype-monster-worthy, if not better.

    Really enjoyed a bunch of Leisure Time Lager this past weekend. Love the can format.

    I haven't had the Coffee version yet but I completely agree, Jack's absolutely killed it on the BA Framinghammers this year.

    It has been, albeit in super limited amounts. We have a great relationship with the JA folks, so we get it from time-to-time. Should become more widely available soon. Friggin' awesome brew, as is the Cranberry Berliner. Can't beat their price points either.

    Ditto on the House Lager. Sat was a mid July like beach day on the South Shore and the HLs were going down smooth.

    I always stop by Jacks Abby on my way out of Massachusetts when visiting friends. I really enjoy the operation, the beer, and the atmosphere.

    Are those plastic caps? If so, hilariously kinda appropriate for the format and the beer I guess.

    Visited the brewery today while up in MA for work. Very nice place! Had a great dinner and tried some beers. Thought the Mole was excellent and wish they had bottles. Grabbed a coffee Fram instead. Will definitely go back next visit!

    Looks like the NEBCO Hellles lager collab is being brewed today. Can't wait for it to come out!

    OK so I'm visiting Jack's Abby today after visiting TH, are there any recommendation for drink and to-go? I've never tried them and I can't drink a lot so I want to focus on their bests. Thanks.
