    “These 3 will be released tomorrow at 5pm”

    Other than saying 3 instead of three they nailed it

    I really really liked the Hop Showers w/ Riwaka so I'm definitely going to try and snag the first beer.

    The latest hate read about juicy IPA's, proving the road to hell is paved with good intentions and spilled Debbie Downer.

    Juice Ribbons Imperial IPA(9.4%) with Cellarmaker Brewing and Trillium Brewing (Boston, MA) The east coast follow up to our 3 way collab brewed at Cellarmaker, Juice Gymnastics. Showing love for another of our favorite athletic endeavors we brewed this beer with Mosaic, Nelson Sauvin, Citra, Centennial, Enigma and Galaxy.

    Off the Dome Imperial IPA(8.0%)
    with Sante Adairius (Capitola, CA) We dreamed up this beer with the Sante crew while in NZ for hop selection. We decided to go big with our hand selected Nelson Sauvin and round it off with Kohatu and Wai-iti hops.

    Escapists Daydream Painkiller Cocktail Inspired Imperial Berliner Weisse(8.0%)
    with pineapple, orange, coconut and lactose.

    They are fully correct about hop burn. So many hazy IPAs need to sit for a week or more before it mellows out.

    Are we getting out our pitchforks to complain about exclusive releases in Rochester now? Nah its cool that they're finally producing beer, feels like its been even longer than 11 months that this has been coming.

    Before we bring out the pitchforks, the same truck that brings cans up there makes the same trip back. Just sayin...

    feel like this is exacerbated by breweries pushing cans out too fast/too early. I have seen some where the can on date is a week or 2 prior to the release, where they sat on them. Whereas, OH usually is the day before, sometimes that doesn't work out as great

    As a former canning manager I can definitely say a lot of beers are released too early. I would tell people all the time to sit on them for at least a week or two.

    As much as a I don't appreciate brewers putting stuff out before its truly ready, I do appreciate when other employees tell you to sit on it for a little before drinking or giving a final judgement on the product

    Rochester beers sound good, but I'm not mad if cans don't make their way down to us.

    Fingers crossed that today's #ohtheresmore is the Painkiller Berliner.
