    Enjoyed Bombogenesis, the Trophy/Captain Lawrence collab. Each NEIPA take is getting better for Trophy.

    Agreed, guys. I use to think Surf Wax was the better option but that changed when I tried Hawkbill again in January. Nice appearance, aroma and taste.

    Yeah, just had Trophys Double Survivor, not terrible at all. Decent NEIPA with a nice bitter finish.

    https://residentculturebrewing.com/ is the new website. No longer a limit on crowlers, but usually the beers that are canned aren't available for crowlers. Another NEIPA can release this Friday, March 2

    I had HULIHE’E last weekend when we drove through and it was really good. Hoping cans are still floating when we pass through on 3/10.

    The Answer, Castia Cerveceria & Duck Rabbit collab. Me thinks the "LA Di DA DI" DIPA is solid and then some. Categorically a NC brewed IPA? I guess not but clearly there is a NC contribution. :blush:

    I was wrong on this btw, Pithy, Grove, and Cart are apparently getting canned next, not Yield (they posted it yesterday).

    Also just FYI, you can now get growlers of anything at Bhavana, just have to buy theirs. Used to be only specific beers. Pretty sure that’s a recent change.

    I’m glad you enjoyed it though it isn’t a duck-rabbit collab. I just rent space and equipment to brew my beer there currently.

    The Duck Rabbit part of the collaboration is it was canned there. At least that is what it said on the can.

    P.S. The light bulb just went off. Well done with this one, Ryan!

    Clap Back from New Anthem is on par with Trillium and Heist. There. I said it and I feel better.

    I’ll second the Burial Hawkbill February dated cans. So dang good!

    It's been rough around here lately. To the gallows it is! Cheers to you sir!

    Also, make sure you find the The Illest in cans!

    So the App Mountain Not An IPA just kinda knocked my socks off. I wasn’t expecting that, which may be why my reaction is so strongly positive. But it was very delicious, intensely aromatic, and just all around a great IPA. Only bought 2 cans from my local bottle shop as testers, but definitely gonna be grabbing some more. Go get ya some and report back!

    I still haven't tried Cart. And if it's priced like a four pack of Grove I might change that this weekend.

    I have had Cart twice at Bhavana. The first time it blew me away, I loved it! Super juicy. The second time I enjoyed it, but it wasn't quite as good as the first time. Seemed a little more sweeter and just little less juicy. Either way I plan to grab a 4pack, and will enjoy it!

    2nd batch was nowhere near as good as the first. I’ve been told these cans should be more like that first awesome batch. Hope so!

    Sounds like Hubris 16 oz cans are on the horizon.
