    DDH AGE from 12/20 is tasting so freaking good right now. Aroma is blasting out of the glass and it’s tasting amazingly balanced and hopped to the gills at the same time.

    Shouldn’t be asking too much. But they make more sales when everyone thinks shit will sell out

    I meant in general with their beers, I do agree with you about this AGE.

    Safe to assume there are still cans of Oh...Forever available? Thinking about grabbing a couple more four packs tonight and avoiding the release this Saturday.

    I drank one last night (one of the rare times I've actually drank an entire AGE by myself) and echo these sentiments exactly. It's downright frightening that this beer is 10.5%. I know people lament for the AGE of old, but the DDH version of this beer is simply spectacular.

    Dumbbells? Check out some videos on Youtube of Other Half lines. You can clearly see no one uses those.

    Just noticed that DDH Suparillo is on tap at a few places, I hope that means cans soon cause its been like 8 months since the last release. Then again I think I'm the only person who really likes Suparillo.

    One of those beers that requires the DDH treatment to be any good IMO.

    Picked up 16oz. growler (love this thing - it’s like the 1 hitter of growlers) of DDH Suparillo on my way home. I’m really enjoying it. A ton of stone fruit, peach and mango, on the nose that follows through. Hugely underrated beer.

    Beer Shop, right? I've gotten so many draft beers there I would've saved a killing if I got a 16oz growler from the start. I have no idea why I still haven't pulled the trigger yet. I think you may have given me the motivation I needed.

    Yes indeed!

    The glassware itself is a little overpriced, but it has been totally worth it. Picking up 16oz. growlers there and a few other places has been awesome - I’ve gotten to try a number of beers that way that otherwise I wouldn’t have, given that I didn’t have time to sit and drink a beer. I definitely recommend.

    And to make sure we stay on topic, I also definitely recommend the DDH Suparillo.

    Maybe even better than the beer itself is that when my wife tasted it she said, “that delicious, it tastes like peaches”. This from someone who generally doesn’t love IPAs.

    Drinking DDH Suparillo now, I’m just gonna start begging for cans now. Love this beer.

    How much does the growler itself and fill run for?

    Funny, I’d actually prefer non DDH Suparillo cans. The double dry hopping took away a lot of the bitterness which I really enjoyed in that beer.

    I think the growler was about $5-$7, which is steep. Fills depend on where you are getting them. Usually about $5 or $6.
