    I think its pretty close on amount of NEIPAs... Sure Corridor may tweak the hops on Van Hazen or Squeezit.

    Corridor - CJB, Ryders, Van Hazen, Squeezit, Bendy Straw, H2H, Salute Your Simcoe

    FR- Ghost Tropic , Atomic Child, Power Trip, Toro, Snoochie, Radio Swan, Stay Lit, Night Moth

    Forgot to add Pulp Hogan & Reign in Punch to Corridor.

    I don't think you can discount the different versions when they add a different hop. That's like another 12 beers from them. That would be like saying TG doesn't put out that many because only Pseudo Sue should count and not Galaxy Sue, Mosaic Sue, Double Dry Hopped Sue, or Mikkeller's entire line of single hop beers....

    I'm going strictly on IPA's here; good point on FR's variety.

    I completely agree on this. Corridor is by far my favorite for NE styles. But I think FR is a better overall brewery as their other beers are very well done. Especially their cocktail-inspired offerings. They nail those like nobody's business.

    I would love it if Roger or @dubo09 came in here and gave us some tidbits on NE IPA homebrewing :slight_smile: kind of like BJ from FR has done in the past ...

    I find it really easy. Pour 2 growlers of Corridor NEIPA into 1 gallon brew kettle then immediately transfer to gallon mini keg, enjoy....:wink:

    Yeah I have pretty much stopped trading away my cellar of BA stouts for NEIPAs since Corridor has been having multiple NEIPA available at all times. Swing by Corridor after work, fill my growlers, and I am set for every weekend. Don't get me wrong I still love Trillium stuff.

    It's been too hot to ship hoppy beers anyways.

    I missed Pulp Hogan and H2H on their initial releases so I'm looking forward to their returns eventually. Strawberry Bendy should be really good too

    I haven't tested this yet, but I do have a 1 gallon keg (the "Man Can") that could theoretically be filled by a brewery directly. Whether they will or not is the question ...

    @dubo09 I read you previously mentioned strawberry bendy and a TDH being brewed this week, but are their any new offerings being tapped this week? Or still plenty of Cosmic left? :slight_smile:

    Thanks for all the detail you share within this thread.

    Sorry but I'm still too dumb to follow the acronym culture here...what is TDH?

    I'm with ya on the acronyms. But based off the context, I'm assuming Triple Dry Hopped?

    Just got back from Ireland last night, so I'm a bit behind on what is still available. If I stopped by after work tonight, could I still grab some CJB crowlers, or is it long gone?

    We will not have any new Hazy offerings this week or next. We do have a pretty top notch Coffee Stout and Festbier going on this week. I anticipate Ryder's and Cosmic to last through most of the weekend. Next new Hazy will be Bendy Straw with strawberry and the Triple Dry Hopped IPA. Then Squeezit OG the following week.

    Came in for dinner and tried the coffee stout (my favorite style). I'm a fan.

    Not in the mood for a coffee stout, but if there were more details on it (abv, Coffee type, etc) perhaps it might whet my whistle...
