    From the pictures I've seen on facebook, you got lucky.

    Call or email them, I'm sure they will refund the difference.

    Why what's up on Facebook? I did email them, I am sure they will take care of it.

    Master of Oranges looks terrible, it looks like a sludge made out of sawdust. Another homebrew-level beer from Aslin.

    Great, starting to get old driving over there and waiting in line to get sub par beer, might need to take a break until they get shit figured out. Good stuff when they are on their game though....

    Got there at 2:00 no line was able to get 1 4 pack of each beer. I'm hoping master of oranges isn't as bad as y'all are saying.

    There are a couple pics on untappd with a side by side of the march and february MoO. It's probably my favorite beer of theirs but I passed on it this time and just got a couple OS.

    I can confirm Master of Oranges is a mess. Poorly integrated tea leaf, burnt bread crust mess. Tastes young. Looks like a totally different beer from the can released in Feb. Aslin needs to figure this out.

    I'm heading to Arlington next Sunday for my grandfather's military burial on Monday. I've been sort of keeping up with this thread to get an idea of how Aslin releases, and it seems like it used to be Thursday can releases and growlers on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Has this changed at all, and if so do I still have a shot of getting a growler of something Sunday if I get into town around 3pm? Thanks in advance to all!

    No guarantees of course, but since they've increased production recently, you have a good shot. If you follow their Facebook page and/or their Twitter, they're pretty good about posting updates as to how much beer they have/if they've run out. Still Thursday can releases, growlers Fri-Sun or until they run out of beer. This week they released cans today (Sat), but that's just because it snowed this week and delayed things. Probably back to Thurs cans next week.

    Just cracked an MoO, not good at all. Should be good in a week or so but not now, I guess that's the new norm to but today drink next week. OS is great....

    I got there around 4 today and they still had OS, MtH and SP. The OS and MtH I had tonight are killer. The MtH in particular...totally nailed it, back to the OG style that blew me away that first time.

    The Stellar Parallax is pretty awesome as well. Like the Orange Starfish, there's a bit of a burn, but I'll take it over many, many other beers. I have full confidence in these guys' ability to dial it in.

    The other three are amazing, but, as mentioned, MoO tastes like a hop bag. Going to wait a week or two before cracking another one.

    I'm getting a burning in my throat with a few of the beers they have put out since mid February...Neutrino, DOS, OS, Stellar. And my some of my MoK cans were vegetal drain pours.

    Not sure if they are just trying to rush beer out the door or what but this is getting old. I'm paying premium prices for home brew quality. That said, they have done some amazing beers, some of the best I've ever had.
