    I haven't seen a thread about them in a while, but have seen people mention them in other threads.

    They have 9-10 brews on tap at their location, Lynnwood Grill and they are all pretty solid. They do 10oz and 16oz pours, flights and growlers.

    And yesterday they tapped their third batch of Hubris Imperial IPA. I highly recommend it and I'd put it up against any of the IPA's in the state.

    I've really enjoyed their pilsner, black IPA, and coconut porter. Their new Imperial Red, Full Nelson, is also very good.

    But just wanted to see what others thought of their beer.

    I have not tried Hubris yet, but I have enjoyed their Hop on Top and consider it to be the best commercially IPA brewed in the Triangle. I have heard others say that Hubris was excellent.

    Hop on Top is really solid, but Hubris is bad ass. They're doing a small run of bottles of it soon too.

    Agreed! This place is great. Just wish I didn't have to travel to Raleigh to get some!

    I happen to live very close to Lynnwood, and while I think most of their offerings are mediocre, I think Hop on Top has gotten better, and Hubris is flat out good shit! Get it!

    Thanks! That's good to know. Will it be from this batch or will they be making another one.

    I'm not sure, I think this batch though. The owner of Lynwood recently told me this while having a beer at Ridgewood. He's up there dropping off kegs pretty often and always sticks around for a brew. He also said they have sours coming out soon.

    It looks like Hubris has been approved in 22oz based on the brand report on ABC website along with a couple of 750's that are also approved.

    Lynnwood Grill is selling 22oz bottles of Hubris. $10.99. 1 bottle per person per day. It didn't sound like they had a bunch. I also saw that Ridgewood got some as well.

    All the good hops: Simcoe, Amarillo, Citra and Mosaic

    At Lynnwood now, 1 per person. Also having one on tap, this stuff is so damn good!

    Tasty had it too. Was able to get my hands on one. Bottle Rev sold out. I think Lynnwood only packed 15-20 cases total. Looking forward to cracking this bad boy open.

    Wine101 (Raleigh) had a bunch Friday night. Could have easily gotten ten but left with two. Bottle tastes pretty f*n close to tap - good job Lynnwood.
