    At brewery now. Dry January is but a fleeting memory. Finally trying hops only which is quite good. Love the subtle melon note.

    also there’s 40 cases of hdhc Citra left from the NYE release. That’s just crazy.

    Maybe I was right. If the new $24 Daydreamiest also sits longer maybe they finally crossed the price threshold for some people.

    Man that’s nuts - especially since I feel like we’ve gone out of our way to hype it up. Even TrueBrooklyn™️ gave it the thumbs up @Tallerboy

    Mild complaint: What happened to having the Saturday releases on tap for Friday night? or even Saturday? I feel like this was a regular thing for a long time and randomly just stopped one day. I am not buying cans of something new without trying a small pour first...

    Yeah I am assuming its the price tag that's making it last longer than normal.

    For the Jan meet up, what other locations are in play?!

    I am thinking its due to having beers coming down from ROC taking space up on the draft lines that some of the new releases aren't hitting the board until later than normal.

    I think this too. There are just so many options

    Its certainly possible, but various cans still sell well across the city at 6 to 10 a pop. I know some people expect a discount at the source, but I feel like I'm getting better, fresher beer that way.

    +1 to this. Just cracked a can and I'm thinking this is one of their better offerings as of late.

    I can't remember the last time they canned it, but it's one of those beers that I scratch my head as to why they don't brew it more often. Would take Cheddar Broccoli over any of the other beers in that series.

    Dopes like me tend to overpay for singles just to try different beer without having to always buy the full four or six packs. Maybe several people are just buying fewer four packs at that price? Just two four packs at that price is $12 more than the $18 choices. That adds up quickly! But I’m really just guessing here based on my own pricing views.

    I see that I checked into a can last April that I know would've been fresh, that actually is quite a stretch.

    I grew up in Westchester & Putnam, but compared to 007 over here I look real New Yorky.

    More Citra is really good but it's still a triple, they kick my ass, and the $24 price means just one 4 pack is more than enough.

    I’ve been trying to trade for some hdhc more Citra. It’s crazy no one has bit considering it’s just sitting there.

    If anyone wants to try some JK Atrial let me know. Would hate to miss out on something I’ve really been wanting to try especially with it hangin out.
