    Haven't seen anything on FB yet, but I heard possibly IIPA. Anyone have any inside info?

    Thumb Print IIPA was solid. I would definitely put it up there amongst the best of the style.

    I am going out on a limb to say NG has not announced it yet.

    I really hope it is the IIPA. Haven't really been excited since Enigma was released, but that is just my taste.

    The Enigma, so delicious. So mad at myself for not picking up more.

    Was it my imagination or did I just see Saison for sale yesterday? Not sure if it was the older one or the newest release.
    I would say IIPA is a very likley canidate, although I would prefer Cranbic or something exactley like it. Actually scratch that, 750s of Cranbic. Year round.

    I've seen the Saison from fall still lingering at a few stores.

    IIPA is releasing early March. Next seasonal six packs in Mid March are Naked, Edel Pils, Dancing Man.

    I want more Enigma.

    And I'm all over the Dancing Man like Brett on beer.

    Prolly cuz it isn't very good. Most disappointing NG beer IMO.

    You clearly didn't try the winter warmer.

    Where did you hear this? Not calling you out, but I am surprised to see Dancing Man in March, when it usually isn't out until May. Edel Pils sounds great.

    From a distributor. Also forgot to mention the 'Belgian Strong Dubble' coming out in the spring for the Anniversary. I'm guessing that's the Chocolate Abbey?

    Dear God,

    Please do not let NG release Chocolate Abbey ever again. Instead, please help them find their way by releasing some previously amazing beers such as Cranbic or Berliner Weiss. If you do this for me, I promise to never attend another Gang-Bang again.

    I did not like the Chocolate Abbey Ale fresh, but its actually gotten better. Had one 2 months ago and it shocked me as way better than I remember.

    100% agreed, that was literally my first impression as I tasted it. As time went on, it started to develop a lovely soy sauce component to compliment the tootsie roll, ugh.

    Their IIPA is pretty excellent, and one of the better IPA the state has to offer behind Green 19. I'd warmly welcome it back again. I would, however, like to see a new release every 2 months versus 3-4.
