    I was afraid of that, though I was hoping there were a couple of later batches brewed. Still, I'll probably pick up a final sixer just for the heck of it- at least I'll get to see how well it ages :wink:.

    I'm under the impression that they do one of these a year, so it's the first batch. Correct me if I'm wrong. I haven't been seeing it lately

    I did just see a few recent cases hit the floor the last time I was shopping, but didn't look at the dates. It's probably older stuff that was still at the distributor, but I will know for certain once I have it in hand within the next few days.

    I had one about a month ago and it still tasted fresh. It's worth a try. I'd probably do the same

    Good to know, and it does make me feel a little better about picking some up. Who knows, if I still enjoy it I may just get as much as I can while it's still around.

    None of Pipeworks ninja series DIPAs are actually single hopped. They are hop focused.

    My favorites:
    Schlafly Tasmanian IPA - this beer is crazy good!!!
    Three Floyds Permanent Funeral (pretty sure this one is all Citra)
    Three Floyds Zombie Dust
    Bells Two Hearted

    I need to try more of this because I only had it once the last time I was in STL. We do get Schlafly in NYC, but not much of a selection, mostly the AIPA.

    I just noticed that someone posted early in the thread about a recent sixer of 2Xone and they seemed to think the mosaic was still going strong, if you need more encouragement

    You are right sir! I thought it was a hybrid plant, but I was wrong.
