    Any chance you have a schedule of what we will see and when on the can/bottle front? I've only heard about 2x4.

    Still can't confirm exact dates, but we should roll out 2x4 in 22oz. bombers by the end of February. This will be the first in our RIIPA series, rotating Imperial IPAs, also including Asterisk (all Mosaic), Citradamus (all Citra), and Convict Island (Aussie/NZ hops) among others. Mid to late March we hope to release Clinic ISA, Hubert MPA and Melvin IPA in 6pack 12oz. cans. We will also can some seasonal releases like Killer Bees (Honey Ale) and Hey Zeus! (Mexican lager). The Manual Release series will be further down the road, one off barrel aged beers, etc...
    #M.R.E.A.M. - I see what you did there...nicely done!

    Idaho and Washington should see very similar distribution. Keep asking for more beer and we'll send more! Cheers

    Falling rock super chill right now. Glad I waited an extra few hours to bypass the standing room only nonsense. Either way. Wu Tang!

    2x4 is great! Hop Chops > 2x4 IMHO though.

    Tap n Handle had 6 of their beers on last night:
    Clinic
    Hubert
    IPA
    Shaolin
    Dready Copper
    2x4

    I tried the latter 4. All of them were pretty tasty. The IPA was almost as good as Odell's, big win IMO. Dready was pretty similar to the IPA with more of a copper color and slightly different hop profile. Shaolin was a hop-bomb that nearly burned my tongue it was so bitter.... That 2x4 though! Oh boy- I'm normally not the biggest fan of DIPAs, but this one absolutely lived up to the hype--- loved the balance of this ~10.5%, 100 IBU flavor machine. Complex, layered hop profile with a touch of juiciness that checked all the boxes for me. Also, I really liked the relatively thinner body-- as I'm not in to the syrupy nature of a lot of the DIPAs I've tried. Looking forward to the 2x4 being in my fridge a lot :grinning:
