    Was just wondering if we'd be getting more soon since Mo and Thank You Allan came and went.

    Great trade fodder, Allagash is great for hard to find stuff here, but often times too widely available to have high trade demand.

    Will this batch hit the shelves in New York ? I enjoyed Zoe and Peeper a couple times, but have yet to try Lunch.

    Good news. My guess is it will hit most stores in Maine on Tuesday then.

    I picked up two bottles of Lunch at Julios @ 3:30pm and asked for more and they said that was it--did anyone get some after 3:30pm?
    I also picked up two sixes of NN--going to try the new and "old" bottles of NN side by side tomorrow night :slight_smile:

    A bit off topic, but I asked this in another thread. Do you guys pour all the yeast in with this beer, or do you carefully pour it at first, then toss in the yeast later? I found Mo to be a different beer with and without the yeast. Not necessarily bad, but I enjoyed a bit more without the yeast. Granted I only did it this one time, with this one Maine Beer Co. beer.

    i don't usually enjoy a shot of yeast in my beer.

    C63AMG - I picked up my lunch before noon. I'd be curious how the old bottles of NN compare, i've heard that this beer fades quickly.

    Pretty much all hoppy beer fades quickly, man. Sorry.

    I've heard that the guys at Maine Beer Co. have actually harnessed a powerful dry-hopping tool that they use to make their beer stay hoppy forever: hype. And deluded beer geeks.
