    Just stopped in after the game. H2H and MM are both killer but it must be the combination of the regular and the cryo hops that gives MM such a medley of flavors...which seems tough to achieve in a “single” hop beer. It’s pretty damn good.

    3 great hazy ipas on at the same time? I hope this is the new norm for them...and that this is from the added brewing capacity and not something bad like lower sales.

    Pretty sure this isn't the first time they've had 3 hazy IPAs on at once. My guess is that this is just part of the ebb and flow, and I thought I've seen it mentioned by @dubo09 or someone else that with that new tank they got, they were hoping to have 3 hazy IPAs on more frequently. I think their Nashville trip and some of the collabs/ICBW may have gotten in the way a bit, though. If you've been in there recently, I don't think lower sales is the reason at all.

    ...and, Mosaic Monsoon is awesome.

    The Continental is also on tap, but not to go. All hazy offerings are delicious as usual. So is the muffuletta. Topped off with a Perennial Pils at Beer Temple and the day is off to a good start. Wrong place for it, but first time at BT since the taproom opened. Great spot. Primus SUCKS! That is all.

    Plan on stopping in tomorrow afternoon. Hoping Mosaic Monsoon is still flowing.

    Oh yeah for sure. And it'll be early afternoon too so hopefully I can avoid the chaos.

    This is our goal to have at least two if not three hazy selections on for the Summer. ICBW and Memorial Day put a severe hurting on our inventory. From Thursday 6/24-Monday 6/28 we sold 1000 Crowlers. A 9bbl batch of Squeezit kicked in 36 hours. We were hurting, but back on the upswing now. Van Hazen: OU812 will be on next weekend. The week after a new DDH Double and the week after Cosmic Juice Box.

    Best Chicago NE IPA? I think an argument can be made. Can't wait!

    And this is why I won't realize any weight loss goals this summer. Mosaic Monsoon still going strong?

    Not even the best from Corridor IMO, but...palates. Not that I don’t really like CJB, but I’m a bigger fan of Mosaic Monsoon, The Juice Beyond and Highway to Haze.

    But, I do agree that an argument can be made about it being the best in the city, as I think I enjoy all of those (including CJB) more than any other around town.

    This batch of mosaic monsoon is fantastic, it’s up there with juice beyond. Don’t get the love for CJB

    64oz limit on to-go brews, today at least. Looks like I'll be sliding over to Dovetail.

    I think they may have implemented that rule based on your purchases! :wink:

    Haha perhaps. Though I don't think I ordered too much. A growler and 4 crowlers. Co-workers will certainly be disappointed.

    Looks like your co-workers will need to get over to Corridor themselves!

    I think it's good they've placed a limit (I'm assuming it's temporary) to allow for beers to be available for draft pours for longer. They may need to do that again next time Squeezit goes on, so it doesn't kick within a day.
