    Was hoping not to buy any beer this week (just got back from New Glarus, and between the brewery release and Modern Times distroing there, I spent too much on beer), but I'll have to at least grab a 4-pack of Old School.

    A Hefe with Sabro!!!! That's an interesting spin on a classic.

    Never had the pleasure of trying Hop Butcher while I lived in Chicago ('13 and '17, separate 5-6 month windows) so looking forward to trying "whatever" is on tap at Beer Temple in a few days.
    Will look for these latest ones and the Hefe looks might interesting too (just hyped on FB/IG)

    Looks like the Hefe is gonna be in similar quantities to the Pils. Place by me didn't even get any.

    My usual place didn’t get any but got pils last time. I happen to be by prestige when it dropped, looked like they only got one case.

    Grand still has plenty of Old School, a couple packs of the Hefe. Didn't check for the others.

    Stopped at Hammar's in Geneva @ 3pm - Picked up 2x Old School packs, 1 can of Dark Hedges (was a 1 can limit and they only had 3 cans left at the time), and Wurlitzer was already gone. Thankfully was most looking forward to Old School, because milkshake is my jam and I liked the Riff.

    Gotta love Untappd.
    Check in of Wurlitzer: “It’s good. Just not what I typically enjoy from HB”.
    Cause it’s a Hefe, you dipshit.
    I look at Untappd solely for entertainment.

    This reminds me of an Untappd review from an Eagle Park beer I saw previously. It was something along the lines of: "if I can see the menu through the beer, you know it's going to suck. It counts as a check in though so there's that"
