    Thanks for starting this thread. That calendar is awesome. Sunshine daydream cans 15 pack is huge. Replaces all situations where you’d buy all day IPA, perfect fridge filler for the summer.

    Just had it! Really awesome. Less bitterness and more on the juicy end of the spectrum for a west coast IPA. Very enjoyable. Likely will be buying a second sixer for sure.

    Totally agree. I had one six pack on the counter and when she started to ring me up I grabbed a second.

    Just noticed their crowler prices now are exactly half of a growler. They were around a dollar more last time I grabbed one

    I guess if it’s a brand new one I can stop hoping for IBUsive. Can’t explain how happy I am that Starlight is now year round though.

    The TBA beer is almost certainly a hazy ipa. Gotta pay the bills.

    About 30 minutes after I posted I got a text from my local shop saying they should be in today. Excited about that.

    It showed up today at my store in Cincy, so I'd say it'll be all over the state this week.

    JuJu in cans is phenomenal. One of the best batches I can remember in recent years, honestly.

    Surprised people don't seem to talk about this one anymore, considering it's one of the best WC DIPA's available. Oh wait, cause it's not Hazy... :wink:

    Tastes almost exactly like Pliny the Younger, too. Taking our proximity and its consistent reliability into consideration, better imo.

    Made the comment to friends recently that this is the best batch of Juju I can remember period. It's really phenomenal.
