    Now that I’m thinking about it, I believe all of the cans have been milk stouts, right? Here’s to hoping we some some Abductions soon too.

    Edit: all single cans outside of the IPAs.

    I think Pit of Cherries were single cans.

    Quad and Dark Dreams were also sold as singles.

    OK, I’ll rephrase my question: I don’t believe they have put an RIS in single cans yet, right?

    To piggyback off of this statement, I believe Ginger Snap Abduction was the last entry in the abduction series. That was over a year ago. Bottled or canned, I am missing abduction.

    Had a few of those one off milk stouts last night. Probably wouldn't go back for another, they all kinda ran together for me and were quite sweet.

    They are definitely a bit on the sweeter side, but I really enjoyed the coconut JD. The other fruit JD’s I had, I agree were only OK. I’ve been hit or miss with the other pastry stouts, but really enjoyed S’more Money, Fluffo and Pothole City.

    I just had a two week old Ninja v. Unicorn and I don't remember it having a prominent malt flavor. The beer was great with a grapefruit bitterness that I wish alot more beers had.

    Imperial Hyper Dog 4 packs? Wonder what the price point will be, $25-$28?

    So I haven’t been able to pick any Hyper Dog up yet (severely broke my ankle and have been on bed rest the last week). But I’m just curious, are places selling them in 4 packs (per the PW email), and if so, how much? TIA.

    I saw cans at two different Binny’s and they were singles.

    I was assuming this would be the case and the PW email was probably a mis-print. Thanks for the confirmation though. I'm having my wife make a Binny's run this afternoon, so just want to be as specific as possible. :grinning:

    This blows, sorry to hear it! At least you're already self-quarantined??

    Yeah, for now. However, my daughter’s volleyball team made it to State, so hopefully I’ll be good enough by Saturday to make it out of the house and enjoy that, along with some Destihl beers in Normal.

    Dammit, this might be my favorite PW lager, and that's saying a lot. If I had to nitpick, the finish is a little sweet but they nailed the aroma and body. Just one heck of a beer!

    Honestly, I might regret getting the "oat ale with earl grey tea, lactose, Valencia orange peels, and vanilla" over a second 4-pack of the Maibock. Also, they have a limited amount of fresh Supremium Hypster Beast Mode at the dojo.

    I am super intrigued by that beer ... but if its 4-packs I'm out. Ill grab it if I see a single.

    Yeah, somehow a 1oz taste turned into "hmmm, I think I'll enjoy 64 of these." I can see how it might not be everyone's...wait for it...cup of tea! Ha ha? Eh, I'll just show myself out.
