    Does this mean we won’t be returning to the single hop single IPAs in 2020?

    ACE is pretty good... I hope Broccoli Reserve last 'til Friday. Linelyfe people buy all the sugar and leave the hops.

    When in NYC metro area it's on line... Pass the time with a pie from F&F, fold it no fork and knives here.

    PS rewatch Goodfellas, think of your line wait as visiting the set of scene where Jimmy (deNiro) tries to convince Karen to pick out a nice dress.

    Well I’m not so sure the sticker is a “special surprise” now since they posted it on social media.

    I like the cereal box idea it's goofy, that's the type of merch that's fun, who the hell needs 30 shirts that says OH in different ways

    Thinking more about it I think you're right, sure nobody has accused OH of taking themselves too seriously but I don't see what's wrong with a goof like this.

    You sure as hell can’t say they aren’t creative. Their marketing team is incredible and I respect that. Capitalism at its finest.

    Doesn’t impact me either way - I wasn’t going to buy this beer even if it was in an unlabeled green bottle.

    As long as Hop Showers never leaves the rotation, I’ll be drinking OH classics for years to come.

    I like the cereal box more than I like the thought of drinking its contents.

    I hear you guys and I often react the same way, but like I said a few pages ago about overpriced merch, doesn't all of it make it easier for the rest of us to get more of the beer we want? I'm glad mules are moving triple IPA across the country. I don't buy many of those and it's money in OH's pocket for them to invest in doing more shit (like opening OH Rochester and sending down quietly awesome beer that sits). If OH was shying away from fantastic and accessible weekday options, then I'd get my pitchfork out and ask to join the mob, but we just got DDH ACE on a Tuesday, we know there's a Hop Showers lurking around, and every week we have great, easily obtainable options.

    Never thought of it that way, good points. I am drinking DDH Double Red Chroma now and it is very goo.
