    Didn't go to the event but they posted on Facebook that they're selling 6 packs featuring the 5 collab beers and a OTWOA. Was thinking about stopping on my way home from work to pick one up.

    Stopped by later in the day, and there was plenty left despite the big rush earlier on. I thought the fruited IPL was pretty good, though a touch too bitter. The Dunkel was really solid if you like that style. Stout was what you would expect - big, chewy, chocolatey. I would say it's worth picking up a sixer or two but probably not a case or two. I would recommend getting two flights to try them all and then getting growler fills of your favorites.

    Yeah it's on my way home so I figured I would stop and get the 6 pack just so I could try them all. Not sure if having two flights and then driving home would be a good decision lol.

    A buddy picked it up for me. What are your favorites? Seems like that pink Perennial one people are digging.

    Celestial Garden is the kind of beer that would make showing up at dc brau more palatable. Shout out to pink pallet dankness and Zehn von Zehn.

    Really impressed. Don't understand why we don't see better beer from these guys.

    I thought the most recent batch of Animal (Farm)House was bangin'. A LOT better than the last time I had it months ago.

    I think they still have Dunley Place and Master of Karate IIPAs on.

    Nice. Might try to get a growler fill of Vandals at Dominion. Anyone have that yet?

    Nope, but I think I kicked Lost Angel yesterday at Dominion, making room for Vandals. Will probably get some this weekend. But Home, dang...choices.

    Think Lost Angel malt backbone with all Mosaic hops.

    @Franch, they were gone on release day. None made it out of the tap room alive. Poor things...
