    Looking forward to hearing about the party last night. Looked pretty good from the IG posts/streams.

    Based on their IG live video, looks like they opened up the old tap room. Unfortunately the video was all unfocused.

    Pretty killer release to start the year, would totally go if I didn't already have so much from going to Trillium/Treehouse last week. Midweek Citra drop would be awesome, I didn't get a chance to try it last time they did it and OH makes awesome Citra IPAs.

    Potential mid-week Citra drop has me excited. I'm only working one more day this week, so it would be nice to make the trip out to OH at my leisure to pick up a 4-pack or two. Lord knows I won't be waiting in line this Saturday with the way the weather is looking. Last weekend was bad enough.

    I think this week's release will outlast the line. Last Saturday's release lasted until around 1pm under similar weather conditions, and I think it could be argued that the line was probably longer than it otherwise would have been given additional NYE tourists.

    This could very well be true, but to be honest I'm not particularly excited about any of Saturday's beers anyways. I still have cans of Mylar Daydream from the first batch and the others I could take or leave. I haven't had Citra in a minute and I'd love to revisit.

    Anyone know if Adios Ghost will last into tomorrow? I'll likely be going to OH then. Last Untappd check-in was 6 hours ago.
