    So glad we have a space where middle and upper-middle class white people of all varieties (but mostly dudes) can congregate. Let the national healing begin.

    Picked up a six pack of Red Tape tonight! and I’ll be damned if it’s not better than I remember! Great Fall beer!

    I had a couple cans each of Red Tape and Post Shift recently and they were both really good. Definitely hit the spot after my fridge was full of only double IPAs.

    I also am a big fan of House Lager, which is basically the perfect party beer.

    Had post shift last night and really enjoyed it. Might be my favorite JA beer. Great price at $9.99 a sixer (16 oz) too. Would love to see this in the 12 or 15 packs. Would be a great beer for that. Very drinkable, lots of flavor, and only 4.7% ABV.

    It comes in 12-packs of 12 oz cans too. Hopefully they send some of those down your way. My local has them for $13.99.

    That would be great. $1.25 or so a can, out the door is a great value.

    Those two formats at those prices are roughly the same price per ounce, but regardless of that, I’m just waiting to find any format, this beer sounds right up my alley.

    Post Shift is my favorite JA beer. I've gone through an embarrassing amount since it dropped. $8.99/6/16oz. I can't help myself. Not big on red tape so I will power through with PS until Saxony comes back. Then I'll rotate both.

    You are right, but I prefer the 12 oz because it means more times enjoying the beer. Even a low ABV very drinkable beer I like the 12 oz can.

    Saxony and post shift being available at the same time is awesome for everyone.

    Also, I'm still blown away every time I have Marzen Keller. It'd be awesome to see more obscure styles available from JA.

    Come hell or highwater, I'm tracking this down this week. Perfect beer to tailgate at the Bants game on Saturday.

    Drinking a month old Kiwi right now and it tastes lovely. This brewery is awesome.

    I'm with you on this. Was really looking forward to it again this year as the past two years I recall it being excellent. This year all I got was a straight-up alcohol taste. Not all that enjoyable to my palate.
    All the good words about Post Shift are making me want to grab some next time I'm at the store.

    I’m not sure how often they brew kiwi rising but I had one this weekend and it was great. Not much alcohol taste at all. I’m not sure of the brew date on my can though since it was at a bbq and I didn’t check the can

    Had one at the brewery this afternoon, fantastic beer. It was also gloriously ugly. I'm enjoying this new world where no one cares about clarity in beer anymore.
