    In case any local ppl were planning on getting any NPBC beers for Thanksgiving and were concerned about delivery days, as a fellow introvert that hates going outside, I went ahead and asked.

    Deliveries will be done on Wed/Fri/Sat next week.

    So hard building a case right now. Tempted to add a Guavacito or Aroma Constrictor, but that means less than (2) each of Graveyard Quartet, Army of the Kinda Dead-ish, and The Good Ole West.

    The struggle.

    If you really want a struggle...I think there is a citra wc pale in the works that might be getting canned soon'ish. At least I think that was it.. @kmcnair can correct me since I might be misremembering.


    edit: Disregard...I believe it was Graveyard Quartet he was talking about, and that is released. lololololz, I guess my caffeine hasn't kicked in yet for the day.

    Aroma Constrictor is fantastic, highly recommend.

    He mentioned a Citra lager that sounded like it was the next entry in the Cup series in a comment on Facebook.

    We're departing from the "Cup" naming for this one, but "Hitcha with Citra" will definitely be like the other contemporary dry hopped pilsners we've released so far. 5%, crispy, and chock full of Citra! It'll get brewed next week, so we're about a month out on the release.

    I wasn't going to drink tonight or buy beer this week because my beer fridge is full, but after reading about Graveyard Quartet, I'm drinking tonight to make room...

    It’s honestly annoying how much good beer there is in CA. Constantly juggling between North Park, HPB, Cellarmaker, Casa Agria, Green Cheek, and Fieldwork has been a chore. I didn’t ask for this problem!

    Not to mention, Russian River, Sante Adairius, Moonlight, Burgeon and Enegren. I hate to admit it but I actually end up wasting good beer because I can’t wait to try the next one and don’t really want to deal with hangovers seven days a week.

    Really could use some help. Heading to NPBC this evening, planned on grabbing ~four 4-packs. Just looked, and they have about 10 different beers that I want. What are the absolute best beers available?? Thanks in advance!!

    However, you can also do build-your-own 4pks if you buy in person, in which case you can try a variety of your beers if you so desire.

    The new Graveyard Quartet is an amazing Pale Ale and one of the best North Park beers I’ve had.

    Oh wow, it wasn't even listed as an option when I placed my order yesterday. They must have found some extra cans.

    I went on the site last night to see what was available to maybe place an order and got overwhelmed. Before I knew it I had 7 different 4 packs in my cart Graveyard Quartet, Army of the Kinda Deadish, Aroma Constrictor, The Good Ole West, Infinite Contents, Secret Secrets and Sorta Mostly Dead. I decided to sleep on it to see which 4 packs to remove. Well good ole North Park decided to crap on that plan by adding more options Strata Bombs and Larp Lager both available when I checked back today. Rather than order 9 four packs I decided to take a step back and show some restraint. My new plan is to drink through the cans in my fridge between now and the weekend then order some North Park once I make space (hopefully less than 9 four packs!). Maybe the rest of you guys can make some options sell out before I order in order to save me from myself.

    I have to restrict myself to only ordering once a month or so and only after I've consumed all the cans from the last order. I love everything North Park is putting out right now, and the constant WC IPA/DIPA/Pales makes it even more difficult not to overdo it.

    Restraint? Self control? Stick to a budget? Discipline?

    I try my best to have them :slight_smile:

    So difficult with all the world class breweries out here in California on their "A" game and making life miserable on deciding which beers am I ordering today? LOL

    Well I augment that with monthly Modern Times sales and local HPB deliveries, so not much of a control :stuck_out_tongue:
