    I always call it that.
    I haven't opened it yet. Maybe tonight if not next weekend

    Haha nice. It’s definitely a more accurate name if you happen to live in the town

    By any chance did you try their collab w/ plan bee? It looked pretty good but it sold out real quick

    Ourboros gets my vote for New Jersey Beer of the Year (Tri-State Beer of the Year if you are into semantics).

    The ABV is quite high but you'd never know it from tasting it. It is perfectly hoppy, sweet and unique.

    just finished my last Ourboros Sunday.

    I would say it's probably my favorite TIPA I have had - next to All Green Everything.

    I generally hate triple IPAs as a style but this one made me change my mind quite a bit. First TIPA that makes me wish I got more than a single can

    I did get a full four pack and I enjoyed it for sure, but like most TIPAs, it was a just bit much overall. Which is, I suppose, the point.

    Festy, I like the name. Hope to see the beer in stores soon. 16oz or 12oz?

    Does sound good, but it seemed from the video that “one big batch to go out all the bars...” meant it wasn’t being canned.

    I'm just really happy Carton took the pale route....too many amber marzens on the market these days. I really hope Roger Wilco gets some of this so I can fill a crowler or two or three or four or five or

    Hate to be that guy but any chance the new &telier; with Lawson’s sees distro? Two of my all time favorites teaming up. Gotta get my hands on it.

    @gardenstatepkwy from what it seems the collabs and releases see limited distro based on how sales go at the brewery

    maybe @augiecarton can chime in

    and some is going to Vermont, which means less for distro I suspect.

    Gotta say I’m a little bummed that Festy will not be available in cans. We had several different Weiss/sour beers in cans but a lone fest bier gets the draft only treatment.

    Technically, a keg is a can
