    Agreed, but I think their tap prices/crowler prices are a bit higher than canning. But who knows

    It's not a typo, but it was a different approach then we've taken before and likely something that won't be repeated.

    We receive pretty consistent waves of negative feedback when these collaborative releases are only on draft for a week before the brand pops. Because the incredible majority of this single-tank brew was canned and pre-sold, we used a higher draft price point in an attempt to keep it on the chalkboard for a few extra days.

    As we head into the next steps of our production expansion, we're psyched to start benefitting from the price breaks things like grain silos and more advantageous hops contracts will bring to our operation, and we're eager to pass those benefits on to you.

    Absolute Unit was the most expensive IPA we've ever brewed. Based on market research of comparable releases, we made a deliberate decision to keep the price of the four-pack a few dollars under where it should have fallen in a cost-per-barrel equation.

    We're always open to adjustments that ensure everything feels good, thanks for sharing the feedback!

    Can't wait to try it in about 2 hours! If you feel like putting on a random stout crowler right now, that'd be great.

    None of my Thursday BW crew liked Lost Colony. However, I am a huge fan. Maybe the walnuts didn't make too much sense or added a bit too much salt, but I would gladly buy more.

    I just opened a bottle of lost colony tonight and My wife and I couldn’t finish ours. So much heat from the rum. Draft was all nuts and bottle was all rum. Swing and a miss IMHO.

    For me draft was no nuts and all rum. Bottle was still no nuts but better mouthfeel and less rum forward.

    I got heat and nutts, very sweet on tap. Imagine if all our pallets were identical...how boring that would be.
