    I'm probably missing something obvious but which of their beers are they bottling?

    Hopefully half cycle and walkabout eventually

    Finally! I've tried their stuff a few times including the Zoo Brew we had in Evansville recently and was wondering when they would bottle. I really enjoyed their Mustache Ride and Glazed Ham Porter.

    Anyone try their Cross Rabbit Milk Stout or Cow Tipper? Sounded really interesting to me.

    Half Cycle will be soon. Walkabout is anyone's guess, but they didn't have a label designed for it, so I wouldn't expect it anytime soon. They're also bottling Upside Down Blonde soonish.

    Yes. Cross Rabbit was good, but not as impressive as you might think. Cow Tipper, on the other hand, is fan-freaking-tastic, and I REALLY want to see it again soon. I'm also a really big fan of Van Pogue, their vanilla porter.

    Is Cow Tipper a seasonal or just a whenever-we-want-to-brew-it beer? You have made me really want to get my hands on some if and when they release it again!

    Whenever they want to brew it. I've seen it twice...once around November and again during their anniversary party. I imagine they'll make it again once the weather starts to cool off some.

    I'm starting to think the cooling off thing will never happen. If/when you do see it, give me a shout!

    Any word on price point? Since upland raised their prices I'm not aware of a local six or four pack for sub 10$ I've been drinking a significant amount of Sierra Nevada and Mission IPA from trader joes because of price point.

    We carry triton for 9.99 here at trader joes. Have not heard a price point yet on flat 12 though to answer your question.
