    At the very least I’m hoping for some City Slickers.

    Had the Diane...Galaxy ET brew tonight and it was really delicious. Their names are still annoying.

    And, Space Hallucinations may be better (next weekend), but that's what I know right now and I'm sticking with it.

    Did everyone else think Snowbirds was good/great? I thought it was way too sweet- no way at 16% they've made it somehow more "drinkable". That shit is hype beer all the way.

    EDIT: Next weekend I'm cracking my Space Hallucinations growler and will eat crow if I have to.

    Love the white grape juice taste of Same But Different. Hard to note what the new hop exactly does well, but between this and the very good kcbc version it’s definitely a hop I’d like to see more of.

    Most duel collaborations are uneven or totally different beers. These two were a smart idea and both worked well.

    I loved snowbirds but I have a giant sweet tooth. I want my coconut stouts to be dripping with sweet chocolate and coconut, blood sugar be damned.

    Didn't expect OH to mostly sell out on Saturday. I figured I would be able to get Broccoli Sunday pretty easily...

    Since one was a lager, I feel like people who normally would've bought 4 different IPA got more of the 3 available. Unless the lager is selling just as fast, which I doubt, or they brewed a smaller amount.

    They sold cans at a a pop-up in Buffalo over the weekend. Does that usually mean there is less allocation for Brooklyn?

    There seemed to have been fewer pallets in the Bk warehouse Saturday morning... gotta imagine production was limited for this weekend in anticipation of the many gallons of beer Green City will call for.

    It hasn't in the past, but I have no way to be certain.

    I have some of the KCBC version in my fridge that I have yet to try, really looking forward to it. I've become a KCBC fanboy. They put out some great beers.

    just put in my PTO day for thursday, anyone down for a loosely organized BA bottle share? like an agreed time and corner or something?
    Also does anyone have info on other events for out of town breweries? I know there’s the owl farm thing and the thing at the well, anything else?

    I'd be interested, but it also depends on what's going to be on tap at the As Is Green City takeover.

    Wait, I just checked the IG post and I swear it used to say a 12pm release. Now it says 5pm. Was it changed, or did I just assume wrong?

    I think you assumed wrong. I was double checking last night while starting to imagine what the line situation will be like and it was 5pm then.

    Their latest post on instagram lists 5 or 6 green city related events including a cloudwater tap takeover at OH on Sunday.

    Interesting that Untappd deleted the Citra+Equinox and overwrote it with only Citra+Ekuenot.
