    Had the privilege to try this year's already and hot damn if it isn't the best yet IMHO. It's juicier and less Bitter for sure.
    AND dangerously smooth......

    Funny you mentioned Jammer because i found it last summer but when they did the apparent recipe change i never saw it again that summer

    Hopefully The Beer Ace Delivers this week!... I passed on a case of Hopslam in favor of Hi Res, looking forward to this year's batch! Hope to see a canned Sixpoint Barleywine this year!? Love you Sixpoint.

    Last year's batch was great and 2016's sounds even better. I'm smacking my lips reading about it.

    I'm sure we did. I don't pound the pavement looking but I usually see most releases. Never saw any version if jammer and still looking for cream. I loved GW but only saw it in two locations. Keep up the great work.

    Enjoy

    I have been looking for it and am out in in the KOP area...I think the distributor is sitting on it. Capone's and the Beer Yard in Wayne don't have it and not sure when it will arrive.

    I'm wishing I'd gone this route to start - I might still try to track one down even with packages coming soon. I know this one will not go to waste!

    I had a sixth log last year too....really good....but really dangerous. So far I have yet to see it in the Philly area also.

    Right on - glad you noticed and appreciated the subtle tweaks we made

    You will most definitely see it this summer

    thanks Brian - no plans for barleywine, but we are working on something for 4th quarter of this year...stay tuned!

    we can make that happen for you

    not true - you will have it in about 2 weeks!

    Guess I can drown my "lack of Hi Res" sorrows in that case of Fatheads Hop Juju which comes out Thursday....

    @Sixpoint Thanks for the follow up! I'm superstoked to hear this since I heard TX was not part of distro this year.

    6th barrel showed at one of my local stores a few weeks ago. They finally tapped it and I got a fill. This is an awesome beer. Didn't get to enjoy last year's but it's so incredibly well balanced for a 10% TIPA. Definitely one of if not the smoothest I've had. Glad I have another 30 oz or so.
