    Well they just put anomaly back on tap, which is also fantastic. Maybe we'll see full fledged OG lineup comeback soon?

    Pshhh...
    Now that's just crazy talk. No one wants good Belgian-ish beer.

    I dropped in around 2pm. Maybe 6-8 people in line inside the tap room.

    Cheers,

    Ended up not making the drive today but appreciate the update. Hoping Foggier is still on for fills tomorrow.

    I stopped there for growler fills Friday on my way up for FYF. Arrived a few minutes after 1:00. There were 50 people in line for cans and 20 people in line for growlers when I arrived. I was able to get cans and growler fills and be on my way in about 25 minutes. They seem to be good at managing a crowd.

    Foggier fills are so expensive: $14 for a 750ml and $27 for 64oz.

    But I guess, you pay more for the DDH and the fact that it's a canned (and one of their best) beers.

    Well, you might want to wait until late since there is a can release in about an hour. So 4-6 will be a shitshow.

    One of the first beers I ever had from them. Would love to see it back. Wonder if the demand for that one's just not there compared to other Belgian-style offerings.

    IMHO its worth every penny, I've filled four already and if it's still on tomorrow when I go fill La Schmoove I'll get more, its one of the best DIPAs anywhere.

    Chelsea told me they brewed a shit load of Foggier so you should be fine, BTW, I love it that Henry is now doing growler fills of canned beers, hope this trend holds true for us that cant get to the can shit shows.

    Having my first monkish beers this evening that my wife brought back from her trip there this weekend. What's the reputation of Foggier Window and Rushing Radioactivity?

    Foggier is one of their best beers, period.

    does a reputation matter more than what you personally think of the way it taste?

    For people whose opinions of beer are formed more by how they look in a glass on Instagram than how they taste...sadly yes.

    I know that our names are def isn't the best offering of theirs, but I had a growler of it and while it was tasty I opened a can of Casa western glow right after, and it blew it out of the water.

    Does anyone know if they are doing growler fills of La Schmoove?
