    Just finished my last Waimea. Much preferred it to the fresh version. Drink up

    EDIT Ripple is tasting great right now as well

    So...i used to think Head High was king (putting aside the limited release beers; I'm talking regularly available or flagship beer) Not just at kane but all of New Jersey. Maybe my pallet has changed but is Sneak Box remarkable? I feel liks it can compete with anything Other Half is doing. Does it overtake Head High? Discuss.

    Warmer weather = Sneakbox.

    I went through that summer, winter, summer with Sneakbox and then Head High... then Party Wave, then Head High, then Sneakbox.

    I actually just had a Head High on tap and wished it was Sneakbox, but that's just me?

    Had Sneakbox at a bar last night and it tasted as good as it did the first time I tried it under the name Hop Lab: Citra. Hard for me to compare it to Head High just yet due to how consistently great HH has been since it first came out. It still competes with some of the best ipa's around, year round or limited release. Sneakbox is right up there with it but I'll have to see how my love for it holds up down the road. I still like Head High now just as much as I did years ago.

    That was how I felt and still love head high. I had a SB can followed by a HH this evening and it was close. but with sneakbox being more widely available now I was wondering if they were side by side on tap at a bar, which would I choose?

    Head High is nicely balanced but I think Sneakbox has more hoppy flavor.

    Head High/Sneakbox: One might introduce them as a separate entity based on the clientele. There are more intricacies in one v. the other, but the other…

    Subjective and bias are the preface for one’s opinion

    Yes. Sneakbox has been elite since the days it was Hop Lab Citra. Elite elite beer
