    I guess last thread got locked.

    Went by for first time in a while a week ago, like the benches as opposed to tall tables. Wonder if they'll let people draw on them to the point of what Riip has.

    That old news thread turned into a free-for-all that had nothing to do with the original topic. Time for a clean thread.

    Nah that was released after my visit. When I was there the one I recall was Bier, which was surprisingly good. With all the hot weather going around, that and foam top from BW I've had a greater appreciation for.

    I'm not sure I'd ever want a full pour of that, hazy & coconut aren't something I get riled up over.

    With this, Fundamental at Bottle Logic and the anniversaries of two breweries, it’s just a torrent of beer events on Saturday

    Manny the Tornado is the best pistachio beer ever, Wished I had a 4pk of this stuff. Pistachio came out just right, not over powering and beer was still juicy while keeping that pistachio milkshake aspect intact. MannytheTornado>Cocohut

    The hazy nelson brut IPA on tap right now is hugely aromatic, has a soft and pillowy mouthfeel, is somewhat juicy but finishes bone dry. And it's only 5.6%. Wowszer all around!

    Looks like there is a can release tomorrow. Other than Cocohut, I believe this is the only other can that has been previously released. It was probably one of my favorites as well.

    My favorite hazy from them so far. Would be open to exchanging a few for Monkish if you're interested since I've never had a Monkish can.

    Cool. Will be interested to hear your thoughts on it, especially how you think it compares to Monkish.

    Do they have any distribution or have cans on site that aren't part of their normal releases?

    No distro.
    Crowlers are available and mainly weekend releases.

    I opened a can of Starry Configurations last night and found it to be extremely vegetal and off-putting. Strong flavors of onion & garlic at the finish. Anyone else try a can?
