    #PoppingBottles ? I'm assuming we'll get some bottled fun, not just IPAs.

    Spake Cookie is easily one of my favorites from Monkish - excited to see it back at the festival!

    All I'm wondering is if Gift of Death is coming back, cause I got nothing else to do on Christmas eve than to wait for growler fills.

    I'll be right there with you. That beer was awesome.
    Also, it's probably too late to get some Magnificat this year right? BA or regular. I think I'm finally going to open my regular 2013 bottle this Christmas.

    Glad they dropped these two today so I can shop in relative peace and quite over the next couple days. I had Space Cookie from the OG batch and liked it.........for about 6oz, definitely a beer to share as it gets very sweet and cloying after time IMHO.

    Cheers

    Anyone else think Space Cookie smells and tastes a lot like fresh wort? I swear it smells like what my house smells like after finishing an all-grain brew, and tastes like when I try a sample of it before pitching yeast. Except, this is the fermented finished product. Maybe I'm crazy. This is one of the weirdest IPAs I've ever had.

    Can't comment on the new batch but I really enjoyed the first batch of Space Cookie. Easily my top 3 of the Hazy/NEIPA. Have a trade lined up for batch 2, hoping it's just as good.

    To answer your question though, no I didn't taste/smell what you got in Space Cookie b1. B2 might very well be different though! (hoping it's not)

    damn & I didn't even bother with this release because I thought a Cookie IPA was too weird for me,but now seeing everyone's reaction to it, Imma have to trade for one

    FOMO ALERT

    But at least he won't be missing out on the weirdest release since Indra Kunindra, which probably makes it worth a try.

    I thought it was one of the best things ever, honestly. Well, not ever, but certainly a really tasty beer.

    I was able to score but I see Eventbrite still hasn't fixed the issue where the quantity is an empty field when the sale screen loads up.

    FOMO, I need to start trying out their sours. never been a sour kind of guy but yet i'm still fresh in this game of craft beer. maybe I need to start

    They make great sours. They've been more on the drier, more acidic side, IMHO. I like Blendery sours myself, since it's super local. And still a pretty hidden gem.
