    Word on the street is dual hops might be tomorrow. Free up your Tuesday afternoon.

    If you're referring to me with that second designation—which I'll accept because I could never imagine a higher office than CPO of a bunch of nitwits on a trivial message board like this—you erroneously assign me to "Team Coffee."

    It's true I love that beverage as an adjunct in stouts or on its own, but I love many other flavors (i.e., maple, cinnamon, chocolate...) just as much. What I love most of all is quality.

    With that as my overriding interest, I'd encourage the guys at OH to take some notes from Grimm, because the latest batch of Double Negative, which contains nothing beyond grains, hops, yeast, and water, is far better and more drinkable to me than any stout they've put out this year.

    Not everything needs to flog us into submission with bells and whistles. Sometimes, the best things are the simplest ones done well.

    Exactly. At this point OH doesnt even make non-DDH versions of most of the "old school/OG" beers any way, so DDH and original Broccoli might have been different but at this point DDH is the normal broccoli any way

    The juxtaposition of these two posts was uncanny. And telling.

    Bonus point to anyone that describes the stout that actually has almond joy as something other than “liquid almond joy”

    More to-go cans at Haymaker. From what I've heard, this is going to be a regular thing going forward.

    I live right near OH and work right near Haymaker. The temptation to buy OH cans on a daily basis has never been higher. :confused:

    If someone tries the Butterfinger and Snickers stout please let us know if it tastes like the adjuncts.

    love that this is becoming regular... kinda getting the 2nd/3rd tier stuff, but case limits at brewery price is crazy.. nice option to have when commuting out of penn and can't make it to OH at all frequently...

    Tastes like liquid butterfingers mannn. Jk I just picked up a bottle, haven’t tried it yet, but that’s probably what I’ll post on Instagram when I do.

    At what point do we just buy Old Rasputin and put candy in our glass instead of pay $16 for a stout bottle?
