Deviant Dale's being discontinued? Can anyone confirm?

I heard about the standard IPA, but I thought it was an addition to their lineup, not a replacement

 

I sure hope its not true. Maybe its not selling but our first keg we bought was of deviant...

 

I have not seen DD roll through my distro in a long time. Both package and draft seem to be amiss.

 

No idea if they are indeed discontinuing it but I would love to see it moved to a seasonal. As a year round beer, I cannot for the life of me find it with less than 4-5 months age on it, even at places that are pretty good about rotating stock.

 

In light of their new IPA rolling out, it would make sense if they retooled it as a DIPA and perhaps bumped it up a bit from 8%. Maybe get on board with the new darling hop and dash it with some Mosaic?

 

That would be what all the kids are doing (which is bad for me as I'm not a fan of Mosaic, I know, I know, hate on). I always looked for DD, but I admit not as a first choice but always a solid beer for me.

 

I've always really really liked DD. The main problem is I can only find it old and it's pretty over priced considering.

 

It really is a damn shame...I love OB stuff but can also rarely find it fresh out here in CA. I'd have bought so much more of it over the years if I could.

 

Deviant dales is like over 4 dollars a can around NY so I never drink anyways

 

I'd get Dales if it wasn't so outdated at every store I go to. It's a pain. I hope one more fresh batch comes out before they fold the distro (if this is true). I've only had it fresh once.

 

OB just posted on fb that Devient Dale's is moving to a fall seasonal in 12oz cans. If this means fresh DD when in season I'm stoked!

 

Now just make Death by Coconut the fourth seasonal and we're all set
