    Being brewed today! Founders took a few pictures of the hops and some of the brewing process and put them on Facebook. Pretty cool. Always look forward to this release!

    Great Divide Fresh Hop (2012) is still prevalent in Pittsburgh. Not so fresh anymore...

    Hopefully I'll be able to grab a couple 4 packs or maybe a case of Harvest this year.

    Awesome. It's the one Founders annual release I haven't tried yet, and I'm greatly looking forward to it.

    One of the crispest, cleanest IPAs I have ever had. Super bright and light finish.

    I have never seen this one "sit around."

    CANNOT WAIT!!!!!

    always a nice beer, looking forward to it, hope it lands here in nj before 10/18... anybody know the general timeline of start brew to bottling for haverst ale? Will be out of country from 10/20 - 11/1 and if this hits during that period it'll surely be sold out in NJ

    Two brothers Heavy Handed and Heavier handed are pretty good. I think last year, there were four "varieties" of the heavy handed available (cluster, willamette, couple others).

    This beer is such a delight and I've never been able to buy more than a single four-pack; last year, in fact, the place I'm able to find it switched to a one-bottle limit. Having better access to it and finding it on tap somewhere would be super dreamtime.

    This beer was INCREDIBLE last year. I seriously changed the way I thought about fresh IPAs.

    Yet another winner from Founder's Brewing. How do they do it!?
