    Wait, so Double Citra Daydream is gone? Wow, I can't recall this ever happening before where a new beer wasn't at least available on draft for the weekday folks. Maybe for one of the Potato beers that happened? Anyway, bummed (obviously).

    ^^^ that's what I was saying! Sure, I could have stopped over Saturday or Sunday but they're almost always on through the week. Bummer if true.

    Just scrolled through Untappd pics. It was listed on the board under Green Power, now DDH Ain't Nothing Nice is there, So it looks like it not available.

    New tap room was great. Nice space, enjoyable experience. I was there Friday night right after they opened. Probably could've used one more bartender, but it wasn't crazy. Selection of 20 different beers is awesome. Although I love my double IPA's, there was a good amount of other styles which I always enjoy also. Pricing is a little steep as noted, $4 for the tasters also, but I guess that's to be expected when you're the "King" of NY breweries, and located in Brooklyn.

    Well I guess we will get confirmation shortly, as they are actually open today :slight_smile:

    And if that is really the case, I have to wonder if it's the new incentive pricing towards the 64 oz fill that caused this phenomenon?

    Hasn't it always been $4 for tasters, at least for the DIPAs? Some of the lower gravity stuff was $3 IIRC.

    Back in the olden times when I used to walk to school barefoot in the driving snow, tasters were 4 tasters for $5. Didn't even have computers back then, bartenders would keep track of consumption with pen and paper.

    Ha, well I for one appreciate the 2 taster limit!

    Let's not slow things down any more than we need to.

    Does anyone recall how they released Labor Day weekend last year? Did they have a Saturday release? Or do one say Friday or earlier? Hoping to stock up for labor day, but, won't be around on that Saturday...

    Their instagram doesn't show a release for Labor Day Weekend of 2016. I believe it fell on a non-release weekend (this was when they still canned bi-weekly). They released Boogie Board Stuntz the week before that though...maybe it'll make a comeback in time for the holiday this year.

    Ah, thanks for clarifying this.

    Separate growler board adding yet another level to lazy man recon (hint hint, untappd people).

    I know I chose a 64 of DCDD since it was like a $2 difference from the 32

    This could change at a moments notice, the new taproom is great

    @dhaakon now we can officially be disappointed, though (hopefully) happy for the afternoon crowd.

    I love Space and was a fan of Cream when I had it on draft but the other two are meh so probably not worth it. Kinda disappointed I missed Green Power since it sounded great.

    Unless they don't do any weekday release at all, from the keg email there were 6 beers. Im guessing Centennial and or AGE weekday
