Night Shift Brewing (April 2016)

Ranges from $10-$12 for 32oz fills to $15-$18 for 64oz fills. Growlers are a $5 deposit. We take them back and you can swap between sizes too.

 

Does Second Breakfast see distro or is it brewery-only? Unfortunately not going to make it to the taproom during this very short visit, but my hotel is near Charles St. Liquors. Their Beermenus isn't very up to date though...

 

It was a taproom only release.

 

If you aren't going to can the Mosaic One Hop then what other one are you going to can?

 

yea i dont get not canning Mosaic. I can see not canning all of the different variants, but i feel like it makes sense to can the more well known hops.

 

Completely agree - this batch is on point! I was pumped that one of my regular bottle shops got an extra shipment of it yesterday - can't wait to start the new 4-pack.

 

Maybe they didn't have enough Mosaic for a full canning run

 

Just wanted to give big kudos to @masterob8 and the crew at Night Shift for instituting the "hall pass" at the brewery. There was a line of 20 to 25 people waiting Saturday night, and while I normally wouldn't mind waiting so I could grab a pint or two, I had the wife and four-month-old son in the car.

Even being super crowded inside, I was able to get in and out with a mixed case, couple bottles of Second Breakfast and a bottle of the Barrel'd Sun collaboration in probably just more than five minutes. It would have been even quicker if I knew the appropriate place to go when I was inside (FYI, the folks behind the bar directed me to the little swag setup with computer monitor that is off to the left if you're facing the bar).

I love that the "hall pass" exists -- had I not known, I would have had to keep driving. Thanks for creating that creative solution! (And I'm selfishly totally OK if you guys don't want to advertise it beyond this BA thread...)

 

The Mosaic and recent Topaz batches were both smaller 14bbl runs. At that small of a volume it's not cost effective to can. We are hoping to put out one batch of canned One Hop per month going forward. Although its looking like we will miss May in favor or doing a canned Presidential DIPA. The next One Hop canned batch is Idaho 7 and will be packaged around the first week of June.

Side note: nearly all the Mosaic we have contracted for is allocated to Whirlpool. So not sure we will be able to do canned runs of One Hop Mosaic this year.

Awesome to hear it worked out great for you! For now, it's a BA secret.

 

@masterob8 Any OHTT Citra cans left at the brewery? That one was delicious!

 

Snagged a 4 pack of the 87 at CBC Fenway last night. First time seeing it in the wild! Smells like summer peaches. Probably won't last very long. Great store and really nice owners as well.

 

OHTT Citra is all gone at the brewery. Only lasted a few days in cans and a few more after that on draft. We will very likely do another batch of it.

 

I have been really enjoying the Whirlpool lately. It's such a great beer at a reasonable ABV. The tall boys are on point and the availability in Braintree has been great lately. Shout out to Curtis Liquors.

 

Just chiming in to agree that the 4/15 batch of Morph is absolutely killer. Keep up the great work @masterob8 and the NSB crew!

 

thanks for the response! really loving the OHTT beers canned or not! Also very excited about canned Pres. DIPA!!

 

Tentatively called Roosevelt it will be heavily hopped with Citra, Ella, Motueka, and Topaz. Should be delicious. Release date not set just yet.

 

Have to agree with what several others have stated - this recent batch of Morph is fantastic. Best I've had yet.

 

The OHTT Topaz was....different.

 

The OHTT citra was fantastic.was able to get a case at @nightshift. Feed me these all summer long! Crisp and clean with perfect hop haze.6% crushers.now I am thirsty.cheers!
