    Anyone seen IST cans at the stores yet?
    My beer guy said he's expecting some, but he had no idea when

    First batch was a brewery only for cans. Kegs went into distro. I believe a second canning run is planned for January and will go to distro.

    Nice. Thanks for clarifying!
    Couldn't make the brewery release so waiting to snag some at my store.
    Luckily I still have a 2 cans from last year to enjoy for now.

    Can anyone comment on this batch of Coriolis? I love Nelson but there was an earlier release that was very muted. Some time in the summer, maybe.

    After a many year drought, I've had the pleasure of stopping by here twice over the last couple of weeks. I forgot how much I've missed them. The Dopplebock is absolutely killer and the IPAs are spot on, as usual. Growlers of The Ocho and Bot were much enjoyed at Christmas parties this weekend. As the kids say these days, they're fire.

    (the Spin Cycle can I got a couple weeks ago were very underwhelming though)

    Any chance of any of that making it to Sat usually? Prob not with the holiday I imagine.

    Yeah I'd say unlikely.

    Does that mean Ducks will be on for fills too? Looks like I'll be in that area on Thursday

    My guess would probably be no. I would think they would want to can as much as possible. They may have it on for in-house pours though.

    Doesn't look good for FBD fills. It is on for in-house pours today. When they do can releases, they often offer concurrent pours but no growler fills.

    What can I expect tomorrow? A zoo at 3?

    Likely a 45 min-1 hour wait for cans. Then another 1/2 hour for growlers if you are getting fills as well.

    The key is to go at 8pm for growlers once the cans sell out...

    What time does the line usually form for the DFB releases?
     
  19. CTHopman

    CTHopman Initiate (0) Jul 22, 2016 Connecticut

    1.5 hours prior. Open at noon tomorrow.

    If they're selling out in an hour and a half, you'd think they'd lower limits. Coriolis is sold at a half case limit, you'd think it would be the same for Fuzzy
