    With all of the beer releases as of late, just invest in a tent and be a professional line-bro. You won't ever need to find a new place to live since you would always be on the move, chasing the next hype bottle/can.

    And that might just actually happen as well.

    Can't wait to read those comments sections - it's one of the highlights of my week. Especially all of the people that say "@.......... DM'd" instead of allowing the DM feature to just function accordingly on its own..........

    Plus the kid who is so desperately still trying to trade away his Darkstar November for a 4-pk at about 3 comments per release......

    But on the plus side, those who frowned at the beer friends only release can get some bottles now!

    Seriously though. Bummer. Respect to HPB for making that hard decision. Hope they can do another batch and at least use the cans they had made

    Yup, RESPEK.

    Gotta be hard to turn down that cash infusion, but like Monkish, they'd rather put out quality product for their customers. Very easy to support these two locals doing it right.

    Guys, guys. The GJG and People Pleaser are fantastic, yes, but can we take a moment to acknowledge how great the pulled pork sandwich is?

    Better than Beachwood BBQ?

    Don't know if trolling, but the joke's on you if not... Everyone knows the best sangwich at Beachwood is the smoked ham and brie deliciousness.

    But yeah, Herm Pulled Pork sammie is bomb. A worthy foil for the always excellent fried chicken sammich.

    Had all 3 on my last visit and yes all 3 were fantastic. Ate every crumb of the pulled pork sandwich. May have to stop in on Sunday for another go at it.

    I had breakfast at noon on Figueroa, popped over to the Hermosillo at 1pm for a Trading Burritos, and could not deny my pulled pork sandwich craving. Only downside was I didn't have room in my belly for another beer.

    I feel like the food specials at Herm tend to always be pretty tasty.

    I have tried the pulled pork at Beachwood and, while good, the Hermosillo version edges it out. I will say this, Beachwood has better sides in that there's actually an option other than kettle chips.

    But, since this is a HPB thread let's talk about them.

    Is it me or has the Coco Noche dropped off a little in quality recently? Something about it doesn't come off as the same anymore. I don't know what but I feel there's a certain deficiency going on.
