    I haven't seen anything about this yet. Will it be released in 2016?

    Any chance this comes to MN? I've been living of Resin and Bengali for the past few months

    All Hi-Res draft and the first wave of cans is en route to our wholesalers right now. Some may release the beer this week, many will have it on shelves next week.

    A second wave of cans will be following up after that.

    cheers!

    Awesome! I had no idea Sixpoint distro'd to MN. I'll have to swing in to a liquor store next time I'm in the cities. @Sixpoint - just so you're aware, I work for a wholesaler in a part of the state where you're not currently being distributed :grinning:

    Probably the thing that most often draws me to Sixpoint. Getting to see what Sixpoint is all about through this community interaction has won me over. I'm sure others feel the same way.

    Cool, thanks for the quick response. I know you guys mentioned the changes from 14 to 15, any chance you could provide some insight into 15 to 16?

    I just want to take a second and thank you for doing what I wish every brewery would, listen to their fans. You're constantly on here, providing valuable information whether it be about someone else's beer or your own, giving your honest informative opinion, and soaking up the opinions of the people who do and don't drink your beer. I will forever thank you not just on here, but will my wallet. And because you guys make some pretty tasty shit. Oh and BTW, I thought Hi-res was amazing last year. The alcohol was hidden just enough, I'm looking forward to see any improvements on this years. Cheers to @Sixpoint !!

    OMG YOU GUYS! This is a total surprise and I'm not sure I can express my excitement in words.

    Hi Res was my highest rated beer last year and what my avatar is from, so yeah - this makes my morning. Drinking it will make my month.

    To echo others, @Sixpoint, thank you for listening to your fans, bringing back recipes we love, being open to tweaking others based on feedback... you guys are doing it right. Cheers!

    Does Hi-Res in come a 6th barrel? That might be awesome for my next keg.

    Less cloying as the original 2014 batch, a bit more refined than the 2015 with a juicier hop character in the end. We hope you like it.

    Thank you for taking the time to write that, we'll continue to work hard to improve these things about our operation.

    Indeed it does. Please contact your local wholesaler.

    We've been available in NC since late last year, although just in the greater-Charlotte area at the moment.
