    I thought this was a pretty citrusy, dank, and dry on the finish IPA. If y'all have the chance to get your hands on some, I would! I was pleasantly surprised to find this so drinkable at only 6% as well. For those always requesting citrusy, dank IPAs, I think this may suit your fancy.

    Yeah I like it. I would gladly grab this over Dankosaurus (which I get all the time).

    However this is a one time only release, so...

    As a guy who has been drinking boat loads of Other Half IPAs recently, I can honestly say this is a solid Texas offering in the NE style. Great job Martin House!

    I cant stop drinking this!

    The good news is the Martin House boys say there are already plans to brew another batch and it might even make it into regular rotation if they can secure the massive amount of hops needed.

    This is the best Texas made IPA I have tried to date. I've been able to grab 3 six packs so far and will buy any others I see.

    Had this yesterday finally. Damn good. Martin House has really improved the last year or so.

    This is good to hear. I had Juice last summer and was unimpressed. I'm gonna have to give these guys another try.

    Grabbed a pint tonight and was underwhelmed.

    Enjoying a pint at brass tap and really impressed. Solid offering and made me change my opinion of Martin House.

    This is pretty good. If you're expecting a NEIPA, then you'll be underwhelmed but it's above average

    Is this a fresh batch? Any dates on the cans? I missed the first release and have still not tried it.

    Should be on the bottom of the cans. Unlikely to be a fresh batch given chuk's comment above; I think it'd be ~2 months old at this point.

    It is 2 months old, but was still very enjoyable. In fact...I think I liked the cans better than draft (that was very fresh).

    Picked a sixer from a new batch. Is MH going to make Friday a regular offering. I thought it was a one time release

    It is a very solid beer

    I'm guessing they were able to secure the hops they needed to brew it again. I was certainly glad to see it on the shelves again. Grabbed a couple six packs. So damn good.
