    Yo guys since when did this thread become about hot takes on other breweries? There are other brewery threads that can be used to gush over their beers. Or where there aren’t then you can create one.

    OH - I would like you to remember that when a global pandemic hit and some of your “local fans” went scurrying off to other breweries like rats, I remained loyal.

    My hot take is as such: Went to D96, had more bro's then OH on a Saturday afternoon. Was not a fan of anything there really. Long live the kings of lactose! But for real, the weather is getting warmer and the human body can only sustain so much mass so bring back poetry snaps and crickets.

    Probably picking up OH if there's no new breakout in NYC of COVID before July 4. I've noticed the assorted comments on the space diamonds batches, so I guess I'll just wait and see if any is available and stick to cores anyway. But... Does anyone have any lower ABV picks of the small everything series in particular? Obviously who knows what'll be around in a couple weeks but just curious since I've only had the small green the first time it came out.

    Fresh DDH Stacks & Cream on the Inside available today.

    Anyone cracked an Extra Shipper yet?

    I decided to go with the emerald glow yesterday to give the motueka melon fest another whirl. it's very melony. like first batch green power vibe. it's also quite sweet and could use a bit more bite.

    Been a while forum budz, whats new in the world?

    Cracked an Extra Shipper last night and was a pretty big fan. Soft mouthfeel, a little boozy, not too sweet. I was also a big fan of Baby Diamonds. Nice to have a small 5.5% IPA. Space Diamonds was good but didn't rock my world.

    Looks like 1 4 pack of the extra shipper for delivery max, plus an HDHC freaky friday and bottles of Coco Crazee....which I thought was dropped a few months back?

    Is the product name "HDHC FREAKY FRIDAY PALE ALE – 4 PACK" actually indicative of it not being an I(ndia)PA? I've never used the delivery site before so I haven't seen these surprise (risk/reward) beers.

    I’m definitely in the wrong thread for this but I just wanted to say Trillium’s HDHC ACE was amazing.
    I’ve only had HDHC More Citra Than All Citra but I was surprised at how close they got

    I just ordered it.

    $22 usually indicates HDHC, and a high ABV. I don't know of any 10% Pale Ales though...they are usually like 5%

    Wanted to get more Extra Shipper, but, Green City and Stacks on Stacks is great. Finally I had too many good choices to order...

    Likely an HDHC version of one of Trillium’s Fort Point Pale Ales. Those are 6.6%

    I would enjoy that as Fort Point is delicious. Which means I guess it would be HDHC Mosaic Fort Point as unless I missed it they don't have a citra version. (HDHC hop liquid is only for Citra and Mosaic hops, right?).

    Still $22 for a 6% Pale Ale...is a bit on the steep side. Wondering if it's something out of left field...

    Base Fort Point is Citra so it will probably be HDHC DDH Fort Point Pale Ale.

    HDHC hop product is incognito from HAAS. Comes in Citra/Mosaic/Sabro/Eukanot/HBC472

    also base FPPA is CTZ + Citra. CTZ is the same in all versions and the other hop changes

    Extra Shipper is Citra bomb in a very good way.
