    Do they have different pricing for off vs on premise? Just curious because the Cannibal in Gotham Mkt does. The "to-go" price being cheaper. Reminds of a sort of "un-capping" fee in back in Texas for on premise stuff. Even then, it would be about $1 most times & not a significant jump like what I've seen here in Manhattan.

    I know top hops has a "corking fee". I'm not sure, I took mine to go.

    I'm surprised no one is excited about the ominipollo collab, the milkshake IPA's are made with lactose and fruits that play incredible well with the dry hops and the oats that are typically in tired hands and ominipollo IPA's, this is not a case like ballast point grapefruit or any of the strange fruit additions in most beers.

    Went to the TH : ominipollo event at broweji lane and had mud cake stout by OP possibly one of the best stouts I've had and the aroma was insane I think they brew very well done strange beers unlike dogfish head. They don't take away from how incredible some of the base beers they have are

    I am very excited for this collab. I love Omnipollo. I went to the taproom when I was in Stockholm last year and was instantly hooked. They also make great pizza there.

    I was also at the event at Brouweji Lane last night. Mud Cake was also my absolutely favorite thing I tried. Straight brownie batter in a glass. Also loved Tired Hands Ceiling.

    Not entirely true. Hoptron had cans of Galaxy and All Green Everything for sale the day of release last summer (an hour earlier than Other Half's release, actually). Same for when they had cans of Green Diamonds and Nelson last summer.

    Haven't done it since the All Green/Galaxy release, unfortunately.

    *Edit: Pro-tip to Suffolk County BAs--if you can brave the traffic and crowds of the Trump rally, Hoptron currently has cans of Tesseract and bottles of KBS. Oh...and there's a guy on the corner selling Donald Trump masks. What a time to be alive.
