    Probably in the minority, but I am not digging this batch of Afterimage that much. Very sweet up front though there is still a nice bitter bite at the end. Hoping to see more 6%ish IPAs canned in the future, Magnetic Compass, Forcefield and Lumen were damn close to perfect IMO.

    Is there any word on when lambo door cans are being released? I saw that it was listed as rotating and it looks like people have reviewed it recently. Was wondering if that was people reviewing late, it was available on draft, or I had already missed it somehow and cans have been released. Also, do you think magnetic compass cans are still good at this point?

    I had a can of magnetic compass last week and it still tasted great! I'd say most of the lambo door reviews are latecomers, Grimm said lambo door cans are up next so probably sometime in September.

    My Grimm glasses arrived early! They're so pretty.... Lots of bubble wrap in the box, all 3 arrived safe and sound.


    There was a weird delay of 3 days between purchase and obtaining a receipt via e-mail though.

    Last I remember, they said a simcoe-forward Pulse Wave was up for September.

    Lambo door might be further down the line.

    Didn't have a delay issue but I also love their glassware. Have 3 tesseract ones and use them constantly. Perfect for 16oz beers. Definitely worth the wait.

    Afterimage reminds me of an old fashioned. Sweet, bitter, orange peel. Dig it.

    After having less than favorable comments regarding Catch Wave, I can say this new batch of Afterimage has me back on board. Still tastes a bit "green" for my liking, but the flavors that are there are superb. I'm gonna give this another week before I crack open my last can.

    Either way, it's great stuff. Hoping for a new batch of Lambo Door soon.

    Had my last Cloudbusting a few days ago, and I think it was drinking better at six weeks than it did at two weeks.

    Has anyone seen the new glassware at events that @Grimm_Artisanal_Ales has attended recently? At EBF 2016 glassware was available in person. I am hoping the trend continues.

    A ton of Afterimage left at Stinky Brooklyn on 20th street too. A steal at $7/can!

    whole foods is a little over $20 for a 4 pack with tax.
