Night Shift Santilli

Love Santilli...great IPA

 

I believe it is the 3/10 batch recipe.

 

Big fan of the Morph series and loved Santilli as well. Great beer in a great format.

 

5/5/15 Morph was solid. Picked up Santilli last weekend in the cape and wished I'd got more. Really good.

 

I'd be curious to hear how close Santilli is to the Morph it's based on. I assume there are some differences, as the Morph was 5.7% and Santilli is 6%

Batch 3/10/15 – Clean, crisp, tropical IPA with a bright, citrusy, bitter finish. Our Santilli flagship IPA will be based on this recipe. (5.7%)

 

Tried it on Sunday, I thought it was decent but nothing I’d pick up again to be honest (although I’d like to try it on tap to see if it changes my opinion). I didn’t have any of the Morphs because the different-recipe-per-batch thing deters me (I know my luck, I’d end up with one of the inferior batches). I’m a big fan of Whirlpool so I’m going to pick that up over the summer as much as I can – arguably the best session IPA out there IMO, and that’s a style I’m critical of.

 

Did anyone else have it at ACBF? I tried it during the Saturday early session and I honestly found it oniony and just not very good at all. I'm presuming this is not how it normally is, based on all the praise I hear and Night Shift's solid track record...

 

The batch of Morph that they based it on was one of my least favorite, but I am sure I am probably the exception and that their feedback was strongly positive for that recipe.

 

Fortunate to get some Santilli and Morph, both from 6/3. Santilli was good, not great. I liked it enough that I would pick it up again, just didn't 'move' me. The Morph I thought was fantastic! Had a great and complex taste to it.

I only heard of NS recently and fortunate my brother lives up near there. I love the idea of Morph and the way they are doing. I'm sure some are hits and others are misses, but that is what draws me. The beer tasting adventure! I just hope the ones that they get the best feedback on makes it back into rotation. I'd love to see a feedback form on their website under the Morph information where you can pick the batch and give feedback.

 

Awesome idea! Will see if we can make that happen.

 

Walsh's in Brighton still getting cans?

 

Yes, I believe they should get cans today.

 

Anywhere near Milton getting cans? Fruit center, Wollaston Wine?

 

Fruit Center should be getting some. You can see a list of places we sell to here: http://www.nightshiftbrewing.com/find-nsb/ for reference.

 

@masterob8 any idea how long cans will last at the brewery today? Heading down after work and was hoping to snag some.

 

Cans should last a few more days using my best guess. But they have been flying out. We also have Bitfest going on tonight that will bring a large crowd. Tons of awesome retro games to play so hopefully you can stay and geek out on some arcade games while you snag some cans!
