    I know I'm behind the times here, but yeah, Dungeons > Double Dungeons.

    Classic Future is really good

    What are you getting from it? I found way too much hop bite to be enjoyable at this stage, though it tastes like it might mellow and bloom in a few weeks.

    I actually didn't get much of a hop bite on Classic Future. It was also a bit sweet for me, and not super enjoyable. I love the citrus-y aspects that HA gets from their IPAs (hazy or not), but this one was all stone fruit vibes for me.

    While Fine Time was firing on all cylinders in my book (huge citrus notes, crisp hop bite, not sweet), Classic Future was a miss.

    Well that is not what I was hoping to hear. Probably the best fest we've had in Chicago

    I SWEAR I read somewhere that it wasn't coming back but I'm having trouble finding where. It was snuck in an article about something else. So there is a small chance I'm wrong. But if I was I would assume tickets would already have gone on sale or it would have been announced.

    I know I saw this too, I think Josh Noel tweeted about it. Not sure if it showed up in an article somewhere as well.

    Definitely a bummer as that was a great time.

    Classic Future is reminding me of other half with a little less body. Hop utilization is absolutely insane and it’s perfectly refined

    They’ve finally caved in and utilized the term “hazy”?!

    Hopefully Tuna will stick around as a summer seasonal. I always enjoyed it for summertime day drinking outside

    RIP. Writing was on the wall the moment they decided not to put Tuna in 12pks, despite winning a medal at GABF. It just must not sell enough for them. Weird name, and competed with the half acres flagship beer
