    It's the most beautiful yellow label I ever did see.

    A bit more grass and a less bright fruit this time around. It doesn't taste quite as light as I recall from the first batch. I also noticed the aroma seemed to fall off very quickly last time. Next day cans smelled more like a Trillium beer than anything by OH though lost it quickly.

    It still strikes me as less abrasive than a lot of OH beers though.

    This is a pretty ridiculous statement. Something about OH obviously rubs you the wrong way, but why always come in here just to stir the pot? It's been mentioned many times (even by me) that OH wants to sell out day of due to space constraints. My question was more curious in the sense that I don't see the difference between selling out at say 2pm versus 6/7pm that day. Also wondering who on earth would buy three cases of 16 oz cans at once. But please, go on about "fueling the hype".

    FYI a new batch of Table Beer has been put into kegs. It's on at the tap room and prob will be around the city very soon.

    This batch is a little different than the first imo. Not as much pear and the color isn't as pink. But I think it's still tasting great from the draft.

    And also if anyone is in Boston this week-end I'll be representing OH at the Sierra Nevada Beer Camp event. Stop by and say hi! I think we'll be pouring ACE and ADE. http://www.beercamp.sierranevada.com/festivals/boston/

    Loved loved loved the first batch and second batches of small green everything, it was so cloudy and murky that it looked like orange juice, super juicy low abv low bitterness it was my favorite session IPA.

    The last batch I had of it was not anywhere as good and I had to think about weather or not it was even the same beer , I don't care about the beer being clear and not sure it had made a difference in the flavor profile of some of their beers but the last batch was not the same beer I had and enjoyed, I wonder where this new batch will be

    First every batches of SGE which I believe was summer of 2014 were amazing. I do believe the recipe has changed a bit subsequently.

    It's clearly a smaller shade of green.

    No layups cans are tasting amazing right now. Had my first one the day of the release, but way better right now IMO.

    Same goes for the Suparillo, it's drinking much better than it was a week ago.

    All my Suparillo cans have been malty AF. Tried another one last night. There is something very off with this batch.

    I had seen you guys mention something about a different F-train weekend schedule. Will the "Smith - 9 Sts" stop not be available? If so, what's the best stop for me to get off at if coming from Manhattan. Many thanks!

    Curious to see how much of this beer lasts until Sunday, what with so much "local whalez" competition (Grimm, Threes, Singlecut) this weekend and these being not entirely huge-demand beers.

    You will have to take the Coney Island bound F train 2 stops past Smith-9th to 7th avenue. Then get back on the Manhattan bound F train and head back to Smith-9th st.

    With Trillium's increased capacity is it possible you might not have to wait in line for this one.
