    Is $22 the new normal? Hopefully it's just a cash grab for stupid hype collabs. I would love to hear some insight from @Kanger how little actual collaboration there can be on these.

    I’m sure we’ll get a very objective viewpoint

    Looking at previous pricing, it's (hopefully) a collab cash grab. Prices are creeping up, but the $22/4pack price point still seems reserved for tosed TIPAs, slumber party sours, and canned pastry stouts.

    11 Months Later and Beeper Codes are both solid. I can’t imagine these are the absolute first batches they have made cause while they’re not dialed in they certainly up to snuff with many good one offs they’ve done.

    Picked up cans of things just happen and pizza/fries. I’d love to tell you all how great they are but i came down with a righteous cold and self-preservation is getting in my way. So... how are they?

    Welcome back! This place was getting pretty tame in your absence.

    Things Just Happen pretty much tastes the daydream version of the most recent Hop Showers w/ Riwaka. I think that's a slightly better beer cause the Riwaka popped more without the 'tose to smooth it out but still an excellent beer.

    That looks like a Trillium can right down to the 7.2% abv that all the Street beers are.

    Made the right choice getting here early. They’re about to open.

    Is there something else besides the Cellarmaker/Trillium collab dropping today? I think Instagram is down.

    Can I ask why? Big line for the Trillium collaboration? Was hoping to get there around 3:00 but now wondering

    10 people in line. “We figured we’d get you guys out of here early so you can go to the beach.”

    How is today’s release? Meant to nip by before heading to airport so I had something to drink post-vacation, but a lack of napping and a raging wife messed with my plans

    It was completely dead at open today, so I would imagine the line is still a non-issue. Finishing off a can of Juice Ribbons now. Very good, but needs some time to mellow.
