    Upstate NY Represent! The guys at Rising Storm are old college friends and I love hitting up Mortalis when I'm visiting Jeff and Bill at RS. Have you guys done and cool collabs and are you planning on getting any distribution outside of the Rochester area? I'm just south of Syracuse and would love to make Mortalis a regular fridge brew.

    Mortalis is one of my favorite breweries(Ok, its my favorite but continue on proving yourselves anyway!!! :wink:) Like some of the other guests on here are inquiring, do you plan on expanding or boosting your production to allow for distribution outside of Avon, NY? PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE... :clap::clap::clap:

    The brewery is totally worth my 2 1/2 hour one way trip(from Binghamton, NY area) but it would be nice to score some drops at a local beer shop.

    P.S. Milk of the Gods - Pineapple Upside Down Cake is a favorite in my inner circle but really, keep up the good work on everything you do!

    We've been getting drops here in Albany and I very much appreciate that! What goes into your "Crumbles"?

    This beer is fascinating! How do you get it to this consistency?

    Your carrot cake IPA is one of my all time favorite and most unique beers I have had. Who comes up with these crazy flavor profiles, and how is it decided on what beers y'all are going to make?

    My wife and I visited the Rochester area in November, mainly to go to Other Half, but then we realized that Mortalis was a hop, skip, and a jump away...so we got a four pack of everything they had. It was all incredible.

    This particular beer was pretty much the one that put it over the job for us to do the festival.

    What is your process like for getting as much yeast out of beers that get hit with a massive load of fruit post fermentation?

    Which of the beer series you mention in the video is your personal favorite?

    Do you find that there is a "sweet" spot on the titratable acidity or more on the fruits used that sells best?

    Are there any fruit you absolutely refuse to use? If so why?

    What do you say to the smoothie sour haters that say it’s not real beer?

    We really enjoyed this beer's thick consistency, but curious if you have ever tried filtering beers like this and what it alters as far as taste or other characteristics.

    WNY guy chiming in. I regularly enjoy driving out to you all Buffalo, as well as those other great spots in and around Rochester.

    What inspired all of the mythological beer names?

    Im pretty sure the amount of fruit in this beer must provide health benefits with vitamins or something. Who needs a vitamix?!?
