    When having the newest (XIV) "Trip" collaboration, I noticed it was somewhat difficult to figure out what listing to review under, as there were two. Looking at both New Belgium ( http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/700 ) and Elysian ( http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/700 ), there seems to be a few duplicates amongst the series. I don't have really any experience with the series until now, but my understanding is that one or the other takes a trip to brew a beer in the series. I can't speak for the previous, but the XIV seems to be a New Belgium brewed beer per the NB cap.

    Anyway, just noticed and thought that there could be some need for clean-up there.

    Cheers!

    All of the beer in the Trip series are brewed on site at Elysian for what it's worth.

    Then there appears to be more confusion than I was aware of. I thought it was Elysian, but the NB caps were deceptive!

    Well the Trip series is a collaboration between Elysian and New Belgium but the actually brewing of the beer takes place in Seattle.
