    I shared Bird Up with a friend tonight, and it was easily the most accomplished Claim 52 beer I have had yet. Fresh fruit strawberry milkshake without too much sweetness, a good beer that's also a fun ride. As someone who hasn't found Fluffy a revelation, this was an eye-opener.

    Stopped in at the brewery last spring. I had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed their beer. They had a smoked honey Stout that was top notch. Had to to take a Crowler home with me!

    Hard to say. While I'm sure there's no purchasing restrictions, a lot of their hazy IPA's are made in fairly small amounts, and so they come and go pretty quickly. Fluffy seems to be pretty much part of the core line-up now, but for most of the others, it's probably a matter of being at the right place at the right time (in order to grab a crowler or growler fill).

    It may have been more plentiful along the I-5 corridor, but here in Bend it was "in the back" with a limit of 1.

    I had a mule grab some surprise crowlers from Bailey's a few months ago. Their Goats in Pajamas was a pretty nice hazy pineapple juice IPA.

    To quote me from upthread:

    Seriously?


    Now, that said, I actually did laugh out loud when I read that. Because, I hate Barry Manilow almost as much as I hate Mayo, which is a lot. Maybe I've had a couple too many beers tonight, but that beer name is still making me giggle. Likely not for the reasons the brewery hoped for, but still..... :wink::stuck_out_tongue::rolling_eyes::sunglasses::flushed:

    Ahh, there's the rub: Brandy is indeed the song you link. However! BM did have a song Mandy. I are so confuse.

    They use Bavarian mandarina hops in the beer hence the Mandi instead of Brandy
