    Next release: Nov. 5th, Boogie Board Stuntz, Hop Showers, Forever Ever, and some aggressively priced 375ml bottle. Cans and bottles should be available for a few weeks.


    Just kidding. Sounds like double dry hopped All Citra, hop showers, and Citra+Waimea, though we'll find out for sure soon!

    That last batch of Hop Showers was fire. Pumped to have some more cans in my fridge. Such an underrated beer from these guys.

    The ACE is going to be double dry-hopped, no? I think that's what was served at the Blind Tiger takeover.

    I wonder what is going to happen to Hop Showers, Green Diamonds, Forever Ever when they get through all the printed cans.

    Can anyone comment on how DDH ACE was compared to Like Woah (seeing as they were both on at Blind Tiger) I'm hoping to pick up a growler of Like Woah tonight, and am looking forward to some cans this weekend as I missed out this past release.

    I actually liked it more than Like Woah! Smooth AF Citrus bomb. Both are great, but I have a feeling DDH ACE is probably going to be one of their best beers ever.

    Here is a pic from my check in:

    Still haven't seen Like Whoa (or Like Woah, not sure which is correct) at any bars around the city. I was counting on that so I could try it.

    Oops. It's spelled wrong on the BT gravity cask on Untappd and Beermenus.
