    Was there last night for dinner and drinks and Radio Swan cans were still there. Was super easy to leave with two four packs and seemed there were still more.

    Was there for lunch. Radio Swan cans were still available. Picked up a four pack a howler of Power Trip.

    I also had pours of Power Trip, Toro, and Night Moth at the bar. Power Trip was my favorite and probably my favorite FR IPA to date.

    We fill other growlers but not Pill or swing top ones.

    Night Moth- All first canning runs of any beer will be the single batch. I will update through night to see how we are going. Id expect it to last the night but you never know. It is tasting awesome by the way. I had it last night and really enjoyed how it was in the can.

    Ah, Snookums, we're happy to see you make an appearance. This be a 9% barleywine of the English style. Consider it our love letter to Maris Otter, truly the best kind of otter. Goes on tap tonight at 6 PM but, I'm told, if you ask Kraj rill rill nice he'll pour you a nip.

    Night Moth cans are drinking great! Super nice vanilla/oak/bourbonish aroma, super SOFT mouthfeel, extremely unique NE IPA. Really glad to have picked this up.
    The can art is super awesome as well. Super easy and smooth release. Forbidden Root is hands down my favorite in Chicago.

    I'm not a huge barleywine fan and I enjoyed it. Isn't sweet or syrupy like a few I have tried. Nice caramel taste and a smooth finish. I would get it again!
