    Simcoe + Idaho 7 was on the keg list so maybe? Alternatively they have like a Stout/Sour bottle since I don't think those are usually in the keg email.

    It’s really hard to get my bearings on what’s being released when, due to the lack of year in the thread title. Not sure if anyone else has pointed that out

    Quick question, on a typical Gowanus release day (non-hyped collab) are you still going to get cans if you show up by open or is it a better idea to show up and wait in the line for a few hours?

    Lately everything has been lasting to at least the end of the line. This weekend's release should be no different though I imagine the Mylar daydream could sell out quickly as it's the best beer of the lot.

    Thanks. Not sure when I'll be up to OH again, but I've been getting thirsty for their goodies lately.

    Triple Cream is the best thing on this weekend, fite me. But nah I think those two are likely the first to go, Mylar is a crowd pleaser and Triple Cream likely will have the smallest yield due to being triple dry hopped and a triple IPA.

    Is it just me or does Sam from OH look like Al Borland from Home Improvement?

    4th Anni is still drinking like one of the best beers I've ever had. The initial pineapple pop is gone but it is still just unbelievably juicy and drinkable for 10%...wow

    What an amazing run OH has had, starting around the time of the 4th Anniversary release. Midweeks, collabs, and tons of their best "rotational" beers. For the past 2 months if you just drank their stuff you would be drinking as good as anyone anywhere! Hard to not see them as one of the top breweries around (granted its basically IPAs as we all have discussed), but the quality and creativity is world class!!!

    Popped a growler I had filled 5+ weeks ago of 4th, mango/papaya bomb, was incredible!

    I’m guessing that DDH DMDD lasted through the night? Any local reports?

    Don't forget about El Camino and Light Therapy in that time period as well. Both awesome non-ipas.

    Cracked open my last LGA 2 LGB last night and it was fantastic. I think it was better now than 4 weeks ago. Also, I still love the fact that I strolled in at 12 pm to get cans of that, while others lined up at 1 am :slight_smile:

    Heading to NYC on 04/13, what are my chances of cans that day or on the 14th? Should I be ready to stand in line? Is there any time there is no can line? Would I be better off getting growlers? Thanks for all info 1st OH visit.

    All depends on what is announced that preceding Monday (or Tuesday). Generally speaking, lining up at 8:30am or 9am on Saturday guarantees all offerings.
