    FSDDC DPA is NA at both HA locations and is getting full distro.

    Anyone know if Lincoln will reopen the bar before the sale to HBFTW?

    thank you but that news is now a month old and Chicago is running at full capacity. In HA terms that’s at least two daisy cutter variants of time ago.

    I’m hoping for a nice 2-3 month window to give the people time to stumble in versus an all star, fireworks weekend of no table jamboree

    I'm guessing it's likely the latter rather than the former unfortunately based on their response to him. Balmoral is their focus going forward. No reason for them to re-open Lincoln apart from a proper sendoff event possibly. We shall see.

    If anything happens it sounds like its going to a farewell party over a day or maybe a weekend, but honestly the impression I got from them last time I was up there (within the last two weeks) was that its most likely that nothing happens at Lincoln before the handoff.

    I wonder whether the Hop Butcher Lincoln will have issues with green NEIPAs like they do with their cans or if they have the ability to wait a week or two to put it on at peak flavor.

    As a vocal acronyms-in-beer-culture hater, I both laughed out loud at this and completely understood exactly what you were saying.

    Bravo.

    Dumb question...did Half Acre release their version of the Revolution collaboration? I feel like they haven't, but my memory sucks.

    They have not. It's a barleywine and I think it's going to be extended aged

    I think they alternate the releases each year. Next year, On & On will be a Half Acre beer

    Yeah I got tired of any official HA Lincoln announcement. So I'll just ride whatever snake to the lake in mid-August when I visit. I will give a heads up if anyone here wants to hang at Balmoral, Spiteful or Dovetail. Cheers!

    No idea what, if anything, this means for a farewell celebration, but they are certainly winding down operations.

    Did they announced Big North for 2021 or is that not happening?
