New England Brewing Co. (2020)

I finally cracked a bottle of Malice, it's tasty. Nice job by @Gmr75 & the crew. I hope that you & everyone else at NEBCO are doing as best as possible during a difficult time for small breweries.

(and a lot of other industries of course)

 

Has anyone tried the new Stegosaurus DIPA yet?

 

Had my first tonight. Delicious from the can. Typical clean NEBCO beer. All the great hop profile without the haze.

 

Did you give it a shot? I was poking around my stock yesterday and found one buried...

 

Doing my best to support through these times. I usually have a Sea Hag on tap, but with allocation to bars lifted, I put on a Fuzzy three weeks ago and clobbered it. So good. Now I have Supernaut on one side and Hoppy Pilsner on the other. Great tag team. That’s actually a photo of Sea Hag in my avatar.

 

Sea Hag handle because that's what is usually here, the Elm City is a relic that I need to get some new line card stickers for.

 

Denim Speedo is awesome! I added it as a one-off, but I hope you guys start canning this.

 

It’s called a Jeado! Name change done

 

Even with a 1 case limit, sell outs basically on pre-order for Super Super (realize first time canned) and BFD? Baffling. All of their cans have been lasting several days for a while. Walk up, multiple case allotments, no wait, chuck in car, go back in for a few pours and maybe fills. What gives? FOMO? Sure to get brews? Boredom? Hardly bitching; I have had WAY more that my fair share of each in the past but honestly puzzled.

 

I could be wrong but I thought this was the first Super Supernaut canning (if not, it's rare) so that didn't surprise me, as much as Double Fuzz going quickly which took days last time.

In any event, good for NEBCO!

 

Wait, there was a stealth Super Supernaut can release? I didn't see anything on their Instagram. Oh well there's always next time.

What does the can art look like?

 

Yeah, whats this about super super pre orders? I didnt see anything, figured it would get added to their website on saturday for the release. Did I miss out?

 

The release is this weekend and it doesn't go up on the website until day of...unless there is some type of secret preorder system I am unaware of.

 

Looks like Coriolis is being sent out into the wild. As a self-proclaimed Nelson hunter, I'm pretty stoked.

 

I was happy to hear that my local distributor has Sea Hag kegs back in stock, hoping it is fresh new production and not older stuff coming back. Picking it up tomorrow, so time will tell. So far in quarantine we have done Fuzzy, Supernaut, Hoppy Pils and we are coming back to our standard house beer Sea Hag. Also have a Counterweight Headway on right now.

 

I have not done a keg in forever. Probably should with being home so much. Hap the tap handles on my fridge and CO2 tank filled collecting dust...

 

Initially the only positive of the pandemic was that kegs on allocation to bars and restaurants were released to general distribution, but then quickly after that breweries stopped filling kegs all together and started to focus all their efforts on cans and bottles. I'm hoping tomorrow's keg is the first of starting to fill kegs again.

 

If you remember and don’t mind I would love to know what the date is on that keg that you get
