    Generally speaking how long does it take for these cans to sell out?

    The last couple times they have done Wednesday releases and the cans last to the weekend based on their instagram posts.

    As of yesterday, they still had cans of Seventh Sun and Extra Pulp.. So almost 2 weeks... not sure about other releases.

    The hype is over, folks got turned off by the previous can issues and I am pretty sure they are still using the mobile canning. Cans are lasting 2 weeks or more for each release and those of us local know that, I sent a friend there to pick up the last release 10 days after the release because I knew beer would be left.....and I didnt check any social media or their website.

    considering they just won 5th best new brewery in the world, I'd say the hype has just begun. Enjoy it while you can.

    This is what happened to me...got burned by at least two of the earlier releases, they never made any attempt to rectify the issue and barely acknowledged it. I'll still make the occasional trip to have their great beers at the taproom, but probably won't be getting cans any time soon, if ever.

    For whatever reason, I feel like their best beers have been their earliest batches. Pulp just quite hasn't been the same recently.

    Very true pulp has gone downhill but the last batch of Fresh was probably their best out of a can, these days I only get the cans for folks that want them. I don't think the 5th best rating will change anything, no lines for anything anymore and most folks in south Florida are all over Wakefield for the IPAs I live close and don't even go...lots of the SSDD last few new beers were collabs which weren't very good. They canned 7th wonder which was subject 7 so that's not a "new " beer. I think they are trying to hard to grow to fast, sending pulp and fresh to distro wont change anything. I used to go to the taproom every week or two but that's when we were getting new beers every 1-2 weeks.

    Ah the kegs, yes I have seen Mendez put their stuff on tap around here. I thought you meant cans which would be really interesting lol.

    This batch of fresh and flan are outstanding. Nationally and locally they are getting a lot of press and high praise. I think it's foolish to say that the hype is over, hell it's foolish to say it's hype. They consistently brew amazing beers. I got one am excited to see what else that have in store. The beers they have listed for extreme beer fest sound amazing. Hope they saved a keg or two for us.

    Anyone had the Angry Chair collar that's on draft now? Heard it's damn good but taproom only.

    Passing through Jupiter on Sunday and I'd like to stop by the taproom for a beer or two.

    What are the chances I'd be able to score some cans? And any idea which will be the last to go? Case counts would be lovely.

    Cans have easily been lasting into the first weekend and longer. I would imagine Flan will be the first to go, then Fresh, then Blondes. Check their instagram for case counts.

    Best brewery in Florida. Emerald showers, fresh and extra pulp are standouts. DDH emerald showers was disappointing. Seventh wonder and pulp are next favorites.

    Heard this in line at the J. Wakefield line over the weekend as well.

    Just curious since I couldn't find much literature online: Why are mobile canning lines considered inferior? Is Civil Society essentially making 16-ounce crowlers for their cans?
