    Will there be anything new dropping this weekend? To-go, or draft? With Zwanze and the 312 fest going on this weekend, there should be a lot of people coming through the area... myself included. I'll be staying within a few blocks of FR so I'll be sure to swing by either way.

    Never mind. I'll just come to the brewery and get it there and drink beer. Life is hard sometimes.

    Having a glass of Toro right now and my goodness this is dangerous. So smooth and crushable. Before I know it I might accidentally drink this whole growler.

    I don't want to say it's better than fresh but.....

    I've been drinking one 4 pack fresh and saving the other for about 3-4 weeks out. I recommend it!

    I generally like FR beers without them being quite my preference for the NE style (I say that just to give background for the compliment). I liked this batch of Radio Swan better than my first try months back. And Power Trip was awesome. Not sure if it was the power of suggestion, but I definitely got that DDH/DIPA Trillium profile. Really impressive and glad to grab a pair of howlers

    Does FR fill 750ml swing top growlers and charge appropriately? I've had a few places fill them and then inform me they have to charge for a 32oz fill.

    TIA

    Wouldn't it be less headache for yourself (and brewery employees) to just pick up some 32oz glassware? Plus you get more beer!

    Like Brian said, nothing new this weekend. We have a few nice things in the pipeline for when the weather decides to cool again...but I'll wait to say anything specific until those beers are good & ready. #vagueadvocate

    Yea... I've got the 32ozers. I've got a regular trade partner near Brew Gentlemen and BG only fills 750ml. So we try to send these 750ml growlers back and forth, but I struggle to find local places that fill them and charger the proper amount.
