    I grabbed a bunch of Aslin recently because everyone saying how they’re good now and it’s just plain trash. Again, heightened by back to back with OH but I won’t waste my money there again.

    You hit a bingo here because at this point, now, you’re going to enter the NY market? What’s the point? Good for us, I guess, but (not trying to sound snooty or snotty) there’s plenty of good beer here. I’m spending enough money on beer already and I’m perfectly happy with what I’m getting, going out to a bar to spend 8 something plus dollars for a 12oz pour of Zombie Dust doesn’t really appeal to me even though it’s a great beer.

    Am I crazy to think there would be some ACE and space dd left if I got there @ 1 today? They posted 15 and 10 cases left. I'll take the chance unless I'm told no way. Thanks

    For Ipas, yes. I’ve still yet to have a stout from any NY brewer that comes close to what Kane puts out though.

    I’ve had BQE from them. Definitely solid but not on Kane’s level imo.

    Hopslam was essentially a drain pour for me this year...and like $25 for a pack.

    A drain pour? Really? I was just going to post that I haven’t had Hopslam in years but now that we get it in NJ I would buy a six pack again this year.

    I bought a single can this year for science/nostalgia and I can confirm it was pretty bad. 3 sips and down the drain it went.

    Even in peak popularity i didn’t like it. It was everything I disliked about that era of DIPA

    Yea but hop wallop was great for its time. Even the first few batches of Dirt Wolf were world clas for the time. And hop ranch first batch.

    Hop Devil is an English IPA, no?

    Nevertheless, loved Dirt Wolf and Hop Ranch before the explosion of world-class local IPAs.

    I think it’s what people would refer to as an east coast IPA. Not English. And also yeah dirt wolf fan here as well

    @bryantc3 hopslam worse IMO cos of the higher abv = sweetness
