    Was really hoping for more ponies but expecting bunnies to be just as tasty. Not huge fan of dankstar but will definitely be there at open.

    Can isn't clear what makes nuggets different from fresh. Intrigued

    Very pleased with a big can release for my last weekend in FL, probably gonna max out on all cans.

    Maybe Space Bunnies is a similar recipe to Ponies, but they did not have the same hops available, that beer had like 5 different hops in it.

    My speculation with Fresh Nuggets is maybe they brewed Fresh with some kind of Lupulin powder, just a guess.

    Completely disagree about Dank Star, that beer was insanely good. Happy to see it back again.

    This release it going to be a big one. Bring on the lines.

    4 can releases are weird for me. Never know how many packs of what beer to buy. Usually only buy 1-2 packs so I'm not overloaded with IPA's but made that mistake with the Schmedium release and regretted it lol first world problems. I just go to Civil so often and can't drink the beer fast enough

    I've been at least one of the first 5 people there for the last 5-6 weekend releases, arriving around 11-11:30. I'll prob get there closer to 11 this time. Getting beer is never an issue. I would just rather wait in line before open rather than wait in line once sales start

    Wish I lived closer for all these can release! If anyone down there has ever had Aardwolf and is looking for a Jacksonville contact in exchange for some Civil hit me up in the PM. They do really good stouts and sours and they offer crowlers now as well, along with bottles of certain releases. Civil was actually just up here a couple weeks ago doing a collab with Aardwolf for an IPL

    No weeks off! Love it. I assume with releases being so frequent, less people will get max allotments and there will be more to go around. Missed out on ponies, anxious to get some space bunnies

    Sub 14 was ridiculous. I should have grabbed a crowler when I was there Saturday.

    I agree on sub 14, crazy how each release I feel like they have hit the roof, no possible way to improve.....wrong. They continue to impress with each new beer.

    Y'all weren't kidding. 14 is great. Best Subject since 7. Honestly reminds me of Space Ponies in both look and taste

    Space ponies > bunnies. Fresh Nuggets is just as good as Fresh, maybe better. Dankstar is a completely different beer than I remember. Straight haze bomb. Not very dank but juicy as hell. Love it. Pulp is fantastic as always. Line is to the garage. Biggest line I've ever seen very se
