    Drank the Grey Matter today and while it was good...nothing special. Wish I would have bought 4 Turbulence instead of 2/2 considering they were the same price.

    Haven't tried the newly released cans but grabbed a 4-pk of flannel shirt at whole foods a couple weeks ago. At first was pretty good but as it warmed it was borderline undrinkable....I have three more cans that are just sitting because there are so many better options in my fridge.

    Im not usually one for hyperbole but wow I just picked up a four pack of turbulence from WF and it's the most Tree House-like IPA I've had in NYC to date. Incredible.

    Yeah it's very good but did you have any issues with the cans being underfilled? All 4 that I got from the source were noticeably short about a month back.

    Turbulence is absolutely nuts. Probably the most melon forward beer I've ever had. Definitely following this brewery way more closely from now on.

    I got 2 from Good Beer like 2 weeks ago and I picked up a 4 from WF Chelsea last Friday. I've had 2 more of them since my first one, and my opinion has not changed. Phenomenal DIPA.

    Which I didn't realize before I spent nearly $7 for a can of Turbulence at the Threes shop.

    yeah, I made the same mistake at malt and mold before it showed up at my UWS whole foods (though it's now sold out)

    Called them an hour ago, guy at the beer dept said they're sold out. His tone made me think he wasn't 100% sure though.

    Surprising! I was there Sunday evening and they had several packs in the fridge and at least 5 packs on display near the growler station.

    I wonder what the odds are the person thought you were asking about "Grimm."

    Nah he monitored flannel shirt and grey matter. He was picking up what I was putting down. Just seemed unsure about the inventory.

    Just stopped by yesterday and nope - looks like they'll be brewing and canning it some time in January.

    I picked up turbulence and gray matter at the WF on the upper east side yesterday and they had more left. Ice cold too
