    Going to swing down after work today to try this BA Double Drupe on draft that everyone keeps saying is so great.

    I liked it a lot, I have a can left as well. I won't be home all weekend but if you don't get to try it by next weekend I can bring it to brooklyn with me if you are around

    Are people still meeting up today? I might head over after work to gamble on More Citra still being there.

    Shit I'm early for the meetup huh? Is that a permissible topic even?

    Having TV Dinner now... this is a beer that reminds me how even after maybe hundreds on NEIPA's they (OH, hops) can still wow you if you let your palate chill (been taking a break from hoppy beers due to an abundance of my first love, stouts). Slight melon in the middle, rich fruit pulp finish. Straight delicious, at any ABV but especially at 10%.

    Grabbed my 4pk of ACE because y'all hyped it so hard.

    One more request for 2020, can we get some more Kolsch beers?

    BA Double Drupe...c'mon guys, this beer...it's alright. I'm confident in a blind tasting it's weaknesses (plural!) would be obvious, #fomonotjustified.

    Finishing my visit with Hop Showers, a positive note.

    +1. I was a little underwhelmed. The coconut was great but the maple barrel didn't do it for me. It was a good beer for sure and one I'm glad to have tried, but in between "don't care that I missed and won't get it next time" and "rushing to dump money on obtaining a bottle now that I missed it and hiring a linedude next time" I'd say this is, "would get if I'm there, but wouldn't risk walking into a madhouse for."

    Easy, no. Each Kolsch they make is tank space that could be another DIPA!

    Thought: some of the 10% lacto IPA's are thicker than BADD.

    @tinoynk looked like at least a couple cases but I didn't ask if there's more "in back".

    At F&F now, this is currently the best way to end your visit to OH, do NOT skip the Sicilian.

    Here right now. Still appear to have HDHC More Citra @tinoynk

    Maybe (hopefully) it’s because of the high number of triples/pastry sours on tap right now, but there’s an ungodly number of beers where the full $8 pour is 8oz

    That Kolsch collab they did with Cloudwater a while back was pretty delicious. Would love for that one to make a comeback.

    Eviltwin x Horus can 4-packs are $25 today. I mean it's a 14.5% Imperial Pastry Stout in a can...so perhaps the price is warranted?
