    That’s disappointing, but glad to hear it now. I was already on the fence about buying some, looks like I don’t need to go out of my way.

    ~ Imperial Milk Stout Dark Matter Coffee, milk sugar, cacao nibs, vanilla beans, & almond ~


    Wonderful, another kitchen sink lactose adjunct stout. I’m a broken record, but this multi times per month new adjunct stout release is giving me incredible fatigue. It doesn’t affect me, and I shouldn’t be so annoyed, I just am, ok. Are they really selling enough of these things to make a lot of money? If so, I get it. I just don’t get it. Who the heck is buying all these new sugar stout releases week after week?

    I've purchased single cans of a few different ones, but not each release. Basically only the flavors I know I'd be real interested in, and although it really does seem like they're all using the same base beer I have enjoyed them. I'll be passing on this one though.

    FOMOsexuals....they'll buy anything.

    Does Biscotti Karate sound like it should be an Evil Twin/Dark Horse collab and not a Pipeworks beer?

    Single cans, while a good idea, are too much a hit or miss to try for 8 bucks a can. Imperial Coconut Jones Dog was amazing. Brain on Brunch, meh.

    Thanks for the tip. Definitely gonna pick a 4 pack up now. I’ve been drawn way more to the old world styles lately, of any brewery for that matter. I just can’t stomach quintuple dry hopped NEIPAs and beetus adjunct stouts anymore.

    What’s the rye spice level like? Subtle or very noticeable?

    Not overbearing, nice subtle rye on the finish.

    I actually use the city's app to request that they get patched up. Between the ones on Ashland near my place and the ones closer to work, it's quite the morning commute.

    Sure Bet is drinking even better now than 2 weeks ago. Keep these fish/unicorn beers coming in 4 packs!
