Latest Pipeworks Releases and Updates (2018)

If you reverse those sentences, its the definition of cause and effect. This damn city.

 

Love the increased production...was able to score a case of Crimson Monday. Delicious stuff!

Wish I could get my hands on that much Todd at a time.

 

I stopped by LP Binny's last night and grabbed two bottles of Crimson. They had three cases left and no bottle limit.

 

I was there and grabbed 6 and got 10% off

 

ISO Crimson Monday.

 

I must be blind but I can't seem to find the bottling date on my CS bomber. I do know it hit the shelves Wednesday and ran out Thursday. Can someone direct me to where to look? TIA!

 

Snapper the Crimson Axeman

 

You'll go blind looking for a date on a Pipeworks bomber because there isn't one. Only cans are currently dated. For batch dates refer to their site.

 

First off....Sunburst Peacock is coming. New drug fish IPA with guava. Be stoked.

Second...thinking about the Pipeworks canned beers tonight and felt it was time for Derek's Pipeworks Power Rankings (updated 3.18.16)

1. Lizard King...truly an unstoppable force holding strong to that top spot.
2. Ninja vs Unicorn...a perennial favorite. Can't mess with a classic.
3. Blood of the Unicorn...a solid and reliable offering. Makes a strong charge for that number two slot.
4. Glaucus...the newest entry to the family. There's some personal bias here, as I'm not a huge Belgian-inspired beer fan, but for what it is, I enjoy it and would happily drink again.
5. War Bird...I feel like I've not seen this around lately. Maybe I just miss it. It's a nice, light beer.
6. Close Encounter...Never got in to this as much as I hoped I would. Always drank more like a black IPA and not a "hoppy stout."

With that in mind, I really look forward to Lil' Citra. Also hope one day PDubs cans a proper stout. That would be lovely. But I can't complain. What they're offering in cans is pretty consistent and delightful. Keep up the good work, dudes.

 

I've had Lil Citra on tap at Niche. It's really good but you just have to manage expectations of course. For a session, it has bolder flavors than most at that ABV

 

Oh yeah I figure LC will be a lighter beer but one that I'll enjoy. I honestly don't have a problem with "session" beers the way others do, so I'm all in for it.

 

War Bird hasn't been made since November, so you're right that you haven't seen it lately.

I had Lil' Citra on tap and am unsure about it, but that's generally how I am with session beers. I'll give it a whirl whenever the cans hit, though.

 

Looks like two new Ninjas as well...

 

Got to try Coconot Jones Dog and Crimson Snapper (among other things) on tap last night at the Destihl/Pipeworks event in Lexington.

Wowza. I don't think I could've picked 2 better beers for my introduction to Pdubs draft beer. So good. So so good

 

I stopped by the Beer Cellar yesterday, hoping to pick up a Crimson Snapper. He had already gone through seven cases! I didn't think it sold that quickly. Crazy

 

Guessing there was no limit?

 

@BeerGreg Just in case you're still looking, there were a couple cases of Crimson Snapper sitting on the floor at Binny's on Marcey as of about 3:00 today.

 

Did anyone have issue with funky tasting bottles? I bought 2. The first was great, but the second lost all of the sweet/citrus on the nose and finished sour.

 

Binny's Grand had a case of Coconot Jones Dog today.

 

Visited Binnys LP today for a work trip to Chitown - had probably 4 cases of Crimson Snapper (no limits). Also had a few Coconut Jones Dog - picked one of those up too.
