    25 Tekus to 20 Hop what ever you call it

    Thanks to everyone that came out!

    All our Merch proceeds always go to charity so it's just fun for us!

    This All Inclusive Resort is insane tho...

    Yes. Everything that was on tap will be for today- only beers that may run out are the Berliners. Plenty of glassware around. I'll be there to ask how you think the Hop gobbler is better :wink:

    Did FR get a Fobab invite? Between the wooded NEIPAs, Malort Gose, mocktails and a selfish desire to see a bourbon barrel aged version of the German chocolate cake stout, there are good things going on.

    Yes. Little Less than half barrel left. Should make all of today since we don't expect as many of us Juice heads today!

    It's a Passionfruit Guava Orange Berliner Weiss created after the Hawaiian drink the POG

    I already have too many Tekus taking up space in my glassware cabinet not getting any use. Willibecher-like glasses are just so much more enjoyable for me to drink out of these days. 3 or 4 years ago, I would have been all over that Teku.

    You should give me all of your tekus so you have room for more glassware.

    Yesterday was great. The new can selling format is great.

    Night Moth was solid but a tad too sweet.

    Toro was a hop lover's wet dream. My first triple dry hopped triple ipa and I'm in love.

    All inclusive resort was ridiculous. Tasted like a berliner on fruited steroids. I can't believe how many styles FR is killin...

    On that note, I had the dry hopped farmhouse the other day and that was super solid as well.

    So thankful to have a place like FR so close to home. Keep up the good work!!!

    Thank you for the compliments- I think the new format worked really well!

    All Inclusive Resort was at @ratwheels request for Passionfruit in a Berliner... a server told us about the POG drink in Hawaii and Nick/BJ knocked it out of the park IMO!

    Just out of curiosity, you've now piqued my curiosity as to what a sour NEIPA would be like....I've had some great sour IPAs that balance the tart with the hops, but a sweet, tart, and fruity NEIPA could be interesting.

    The Veil makes some great ones, though I don't think they've dropped one in awhile.
