    I met up with someone who works at the brewpub last night.
    He had his fridge stocked with Superfluid, Hopstache, Yosemite Scooter and some beer that isn't released through distro. I want to say it was called Stroker Ace. He said a small batch was recently made and he was given a bottle from someone.

    Anyway, all top notch stuff.

    FUGG YES.

    Somehow missed out on Superfluid sixers dammit! Had a pour at SBF & loved it. Luckily a couple good buddies tossed me a few bottles... This one came & went pretty damn quick.

    Stroker is awesome. we had it on tap last year. superfluid is the fastest beer we've ever had. a 1/6 barrel blew in about 7 hours last thursday.

    I didnt get any diacetyl but I agree it is a super unique flavor profile of some kind. Fruity, almost like an apricot or a nectarine. Really good, nonetheless, but very unique and unlike anything I've tasted in a DIPA.

    Just cracked my first Superfluid. I immediately picked up that weird flavor mentioned above. To me, it's almost like how a peach tastes kind of musty. If that's accurate. Definitely bitter and piney and I get "dank" on the nose. Wow are we ever spoiled with all these Shorts beers.

    I need to correct something real quick- it was brought to my attention that the conference stated in the opening post is not hosted by the NRDC, but instead, F&B Communications LLC.

    Dammit! Here I was hoping you were announcing an unexpected second batch of this glorious brew...

    thanks for the update - the conserve-greatlakes.com conference will be held in Grand Rapids this year and Short's will be presenting on their brewery water savings and wastewater treatment - all in the good spirit of Superfluid
