    I can't believe I just realized dirck the Norseman is Greenpoint. The beer definitely got better but food not as good.

    I can't speak to the brewery but there are definitely still cans around town. Carmine had a bunch last Thursday ... be ready for a markup.

    Carmine charges close to $8 a can and doesn't always keep them in the cooler. I like that place but sometimes its a joke.

    I refute none of that. Even more so than, "doesn't always keep them in the cooler," I'd say they almost NEVER keep them in the cooler, though this post thursday the fridge in the back had deafening silence and week old sip.

    Anyone get a chance to try Act Natural and/or Pursue Righteousness? If so, thoughts and any info on pricing (they say they'll release details on pricing/ingredients, but forget to do so)?

    Just got Pursue Righteousness on Saturday at the brewery, I think it was $16 or $18 for the 4-pack. Haven't had any yet to be able to tell ya what it's like though.

    I got both at the brewery and I believe Act Natural was $20 and Pursue Righteousness was $16. Both were very good, but I preferred Pursue Righteousness. The next release being right before the holiday is perfect. I love that they do weekday releases and that they tend to have cans available for up to two weeks at a time.

    ETA: Also, $5 pours during happy hour is awesome as well. They had a coffee brown ale on tap when I picked up cans that was very good.

    Happy hour is new there right? I've always gone to Keg & Lantern for their happy hour. What are the hours for theirs?

    As per usual, both new beers are awesome. All sorts of citric fruit, soft feel, real easy to drink.

    I hate to say this, but I'd love to see them start nailing some flagships, or at least start some. It's nice to have new beers and all, but there's something to be said for consistentcy.

    I’ve noticed mostly all the beers are 7.3% ipa and 8.2% DIPA so there seems to be consitancy there.... Wonder if it’s the same base malts with different hops.
    I agree, I would like to see some repeats. Especially Red Flannel Shirt. Was released around this time last year.
