    They did not say in their FB post. Original post from yesterday below:

    "In observance of Monica Lewinsky's 40th birthday tomorrow- we will be closed for growler fills. It lands on a good day, because we have no beer to sell you anyway.
    Back up and rolling Thursday and Gbot for the weekend."

    Growler prices for Alpha Weizen should be along the same lines as Sea Hag.

    Cheers

    What is Alpha Weizen?

    I was lucky enough to have my wife pick up a growler of Sea Hag and two of Supernaught the previous Friday. I haven't had the pleasure of trying Fuzzy Baby Ducks yet, but I preferred Sea Hag over 'Naught (first time drinking either). How does Supernaught compare to FBD?

    @KindOfBlues71 alpha weizen is a hefe thats supposedly one of their only non hoppy beers, and i love supernaut almost as much as I do FBD, but what nebco beer don't i highly appreciate...

    Alpha-Weizen is an American pale wheat that is actually pretty damn hoppy considering the style.Looking 4ward to this one,being that it's been 2-3 years since the fine gents. brewed it. 4.8%

    Cheers P

    Sea Hag is a very good beer but I'd definitely say Supernaut (for me) is several notches better. FBD (again for me) is on par with Supernaut maybe a bit better. All are below Coriolis.

    My rankings aside, all are great.

    Preferences on all the NEBCO IPAs are entirely down to personal taste re: hops varieties. All are perfectly crafted in order to show off different hop flavor profiles, so take your pick. My rankings for IPAs would be Supernaut>FBD>Hag, and for DIPAs Locust>Coriolis>Gandhi>FT2.

    All are delicious!
