    My plan right now is to hit Fieldwork Sacramento on Friday at lunch before noon for cans.

    I would guess that this will be available far longer then the previous can releases from a few weeks back. Especially with several other breweries in the Sac/NorCal area having big weekend releases (Moonraker, New Glory, Moksa, Revision).

    YMMV but I think their dark beers, in particular their heavy ones, are as much a strength as their IPAs. The only one of those listed above I wasn't wild about was regular Chocolate Milk, but I liked Hot Chocolate, and they improved it exactly how they needed to do with Imperial HC. Eliza & BA Eliza are amazing, Bad Conduct is great (they really perfected it in my opinion with the recent batch), and Coconaut, Night Moves, and, surprisingly, Olde Dubliner are all just plain divine.

    Now their Saisons/Belgians are another story...

    Man, New Sensation is soooo much better than Nug Chumpa IMO. People must really be into the 420 hype lol

    How does this batch of New Sensation compare to the first one? I didn't love it before…

    Agreed. I didn't go but got passed a few cans and this is probably the least exciting annual release I can remember. Neither Nug Champa nor Sour Diesel did it for me.

    (Beer of the weekend for me was Alvarado's Slice Joint)

    Hope you're right...leading with Enigma in the hop bill already has me cautious for my palate and preferences.

    Awesome! Raspberry really was tremendous, going to make sure to get more of these.

    Just as a side note: I never thought I’d ever be this excited about a parfait beer lol.
