    Carton is everything the beer scene should be. From pricing in the tap room (they've managed to keep their flights at $5 in the tasting room, while seemingly all others have raised there's once they got big or the shitty newer breweries have the audacity to charge significantly more for far inferior beer), pricing on cans, and releases they've been spot on and should be an example to every brewery out there

    or a lot of breweries that just completely did away with flights or even 4oz pours. I love when I can either pay $4 for a 4oz or $5-6 for a 12oz at the same brewery. I mean I sort of get it? The whole "waste" that occurs when pouring 5x4oz vs 1 12/16oz, but still.

    I honestly don't know how Carton does it. Consistently amazing beer (and not just an IPA factory) with insane prices.

    Harvest 2017 at the taproom starting today. Anyone know if they canned it?

    No mention of cans. If my memory serves me right, in the past it wasn't canned.

    I always really enjoy the Harvest beer. If I recall from previous years, it doesn't last as long as some other Carton beers do. If you want to try it, go try it. Maybe we'll see a cask too

    Just wanted to pop-in and say that Red Rye Returning is awesome. Had a can dated, I think, 9/8/2017. The taste was somewhat nostalgic to me as I haven't had a hoppy rye in a while. Maybe it's a forgotten style or maybe I've forgot about it?

    Agreed, its good stuff, just enjoyed my first one.
    Wouldn't mind seeing an imperial version.

    had the harvest 2017 on tap tonight, loved it... so crisp, clean, dank and refreshingly bitter.

    Already know the stock taproom hours answer is coming, but @augiecarton any "pumpkin" planned for this year?
