    I wont claim to have the best palate but I have definitely had some dank Monkish beers. The one that comes to mind is Sticky Green and Bad Traffic...but that was a while ago haha. Most Monkish I would not call dank though.

    This is probably the closest to a West Coast tasting DIPA Monkish has done, LOVE the hop bill on this one. Dare I say crushable at 8.3% ?.... well I did. The Haze Bros. won't get this one.

    Cheers,

    I actually would say that one is dank. I cracked open my growler yesterday.

    Thinking about stopping in today, I have only been here during non-can releases, and I know that it's a shitshow during releases. If there is one today by chance, how much of a pain in the ass will it be to get in/out? Parking always seems rough too, any insight on where to park?

    Lastly, during can releases, what is the usual time they sellout?

    thanks in advance for the info!

    Street park is the best bet. If it's a single IPA, should last a while. Doubles, less so.

    cans will usually sell out by 5:30pm if its a DIPA or TIPA, 6:00pm if its a Single.

    It does vary, but sometime between 5:30-6:30 is the best bet on when it will sell out. Street parking is the only option.

    If you’re coming after 6 there should be parking inside

    Anyone care to speculate on what the can release today will be like?

    It’s gonna be crazy... the triple ipa brings in the most rent money for the haze bros reselling the cans... plus the name is a super sick hip pop reference. Combined it’s a recipe for long lines

    Bummer. I could theoretically be there around 5, but maybe I’ll go to HPB Chinatown instead

    Plans foiled. I was going to swing by around opening to get some growlers for the Kings game. Looks like its 4 packs of Fraxos and Booming Rollers from the LBS instead.

    Thats not a bad combo. I was going to try to drop in for some Relax but passed when I saw this. I stopped at my local and grabbed a 4 pack of Fraxos instead.

    Agreed. Best of both worlds and easy to acquire.

    Are you or I going to be the 1st to sacrifice the 1st can to see how it is uber fresh ? I'll most likely pop a can within a day or two as usual then let them hang out for a spell.
