    Who goes to these NYC OH tap-takeovers? Is it all people who work in Manhattan but live outside the city? I just can't see it being worth anyone's time when the taproom is a short subway ride away from the city, has more options, cheaper pours and the option to buy cans.

    I used to go to the ones at Blind Tiger when I lived in Manhattan and couldn’t make it to cam releases.

    sometimes the tap takeovers have kegs that the brewery currently isn't serving/sold out of...that alone can make it a worthwhile trip

    I've been to a few. Sometimes it offers a nice occasion to meet up with a friend in the city and drink some fantastic beer together!

    No idea- 3 chiefs is from a (reliable) friend of a (reliable) friend. BA sunset from the facebook group- was apparently sold in Maryland somewhere or something?

    I saw that facebook post, it sounds like the store only got 2 cases of the beer which seems like a mix up to me.

    That's the post from Md. announcing Double Sunset but it doesn't mention anything about BA, and it doesn't look like it says it on the label, though it is hard to see.

    seems like it was accidental- the one person mentioning it was from the MD area and was confused trying to look up info on the bottle he had just bought.

    I saw the pic in the MD Facebook group. BA Double Sunset definitely exists, I just think the store got one case on accident. Or just early, because they also got the regular Double Sunset bottles in.

    Until I see pictures, BA Double Sunset is Fake News.

    Didn't see much love here for the British Bakeoff colab with Cloudwater, but I picked up a 4 pack last week and it's great...but makes me wonder why they would ever add lactose to a berliner? This combo of whatever fruits and nuts and vanilla is creamy enough and no lactose needed, although I guess the vanilla could be providing some extra smoothness. I just don't get if they can make a franken-berliner as creamy as this, why they would do the dream treatment on the others.

    Also, can we please not wait another 4 months for the next dual hop offering?!?
