When is the anniversary release going to be?

 

What?? They don't tell us how many times it was dry-hopped?? Not 6x times?

Seriously, really happy to see Strata and Riwaka, and the absence of Nelson which has really grown to a least favorite hop of mine.

 

It was the last two weekends...duh

 

WHAT??? Just when all hope for humanity had run out.

 

Always remember the fourth anniversary IPA as amazing. It'll be on for pours I'm sure, but as I recall, that Saturday they don't do growlers (given how busy it is even my black heart can't entirely blame hype train). Just confirming that is correct, because I think I recall growlers being on the next day or two.

 

3x incognito + pellets + Cryo sure seems like it is (without saying it).

love the picture of all the mules in line on the 6th label!

 

Someone please explain the 6th anni can art to me...

Will we get some regular rotation beers with these? Bananaversary?

just curious if anyone is in the know

 

5th anni tasted like rubbing alcohol . 4th was amazing last year.

 

I think 4th is my all time favorite, however, I don't think year the re-release of 4th was as good as the original 4th and I preferred 5th. But, it's also just impossible to remember how good a beer really was two years ago anyway...

 

For sure. Also, if they barrel aged the Banana variant of last years stout, we can assume they aged the other one right?

 

Good luck! What time you getting in line?

 

I know you're a recent transplant, but don't worry. You'll get desensitized to that NYC upcharge soon enough.

 

Of all the last 3 anniversaries I always show up after noon to get the Anniversary of the year beer no problem. But, can someone remind me of the Stout situation? I can't remember if there was plenty of that or not last year, or if I just had it on tap...

 

I know I had cut allotments to 2pp and I got there at 5:30am, I imagine its going to be crazier this year cause its going to be like 15º warmer and BA bottles are more sought after.

 

The case allotment for each anniversary beer makes me think that they just brewed those (besides the stouts) and made a shit ton, that's my theory anyway
