    Looking good for Highway to Haze lasting until Wednesday. It may possibly squeak to Thursday.

    I stopped in because of this post to grab a crowler because I haven't tried it. Squeezit was excellent, but I'm not a DIPA fan so not something I'd regularly reach for. Loved OG Van Hazen, the Highway to Haze may have surpassed it, my memory is "hazy." H2H should be the house NEIPA, delicious. This is like cracking open a can of fruit. Wow. H2H, OG VH and FR's Stay Lit are my fav NEIPAs.

    My GF thought it was too hoppy when first opened so I offered to drink hers. She cracked a Gumballhead and a few minutes later asked for her glass of H2H back saying the Gumballhead had no flavor compared to the H2H. Lol.

    Had a ...few yesterday, and liked the Squeezit better. Don't get me wrong - it's about how you respond to the AU/NZ hops used in Highway...for me, that hop mix is...a little too melon-y or canteloupe/rotten mango for me to pound too many of the HtoH. It's lovely, but the OG, V.H. are the tops for me in the recent batches, then maybe HtoH, and the P.Hogan. And I revisited the Wizard Fight - still a solid split/coast version of an IPA and different from most. Nicely done, still, IMHO. Cheers!

    Squeezit V3 (Mosaic, Citra, Galaxy) is set for transfer tomorrow. Should be ready to roll by 5pm. Tasting really good! This one is headed to Denver for GABF judging. Wish us luck.

    So, @dubo09 it will be available at Corridor around 5 today (Wed)? Or are you implying that it is going straight to Denver ONLY and not available for fine Chicago palates? :wink:

    I think it's a safe bet that's what the 'ready to roll by 5pm' meant.

    It will be tapped and ready to serve at Corridor by 5pm.

    Can't wait to try Squeezit V3. Having a Moving in Stereo while I wait, Pretty refreshing wheat with a nice dry finish.

    Have to be 3 of my top 5 hops in this version of Squeezit. You should be a lock for some metal at GABF, good luck there for sure.

    1 barrel left, about 168 crowler fills. If everyone catches Squeezit fever and after my first few sips of Squeezit I think they will and you should be good for today, maybe tomorrow.

    Squeezit is excellent. Love the dank and musty aroma and it just gets more aromatic as it warms. Citrus, tropical fruit flavors upfront with and a nice earthy finish. Nice bite from the hops as well, let's you know it's an Ipa. Keeps getting better with each sip. Thanks Roger and Corridor for continuing to raise the bar.

    I think SqueezIt V3 is my new favorite from Corridor and from Chicagoland area for this style. Just be cautious because it's extremely easy to drink for an 8% abv. I had 3 last night and was feeling it as we were leaving.

    Why do you guys have to do this to me!?!? I have 4 crowlers of Highway to Haze in my fridge that I've been saving for my fantasy football draft on Saturday. Living in the SW burbs makes it difficult for me to get out there. Every time someone posts something like this makes me want to make a trip out!
