    They added the 3 new beers to their website. Says canning is 2/4 and 2/5. Guessing the cold pushed all this back into next week.

    Am I the only one excited that the traveling scientist is back already? I’m def on the fence for a cherry milkshake but if I stumble across some I’ll pick it up

    Didn't have it last time around but after the way the Hop Butchers described the hop burps they got from it, I really want to try this one.

    What if every Hop Butcher NEIPA is the exact same beer just with a different label kind of like how Fruit Loops taste the same despite being different colors...

    Different label and different hops....
    Now if the hops were all the same that would make them liars, probably not even criminals though, and would make us dumbasses. The day brewers start lieing about hops or packaging dates is the day I'll retire from this wonderful "hobby".

    That’s the trouble with renting someone else’s canning line. Bad weather can throw a rench in your schedule.

    In fairness, this weather stopped pretty much everything, so I’m not sure it would’ve mattered if they had their own equipment and facility. I know some places brewed on Wed/Thurs, but a lot of places were closed.

    Looks like HB is out and about delivering the 3 newest offerings. I'm looking forward to the Galaxy Travelling Scientist for sure

    Prestige in Westmont got 4 cases of each of the 3 new beers and sold out of all in under an hour.
