    Bad link. Their Instagram said they had to close down early last night for unspecified reasons.

    Went to the release in early December with Baby Diamonds and All Green Everything. Bought a few 4 packs of All Green Everything which at first was fantastic but the last few cans that I have opened in the last few days have quickly deteriorated into a malty boozy mess. Anyone else experience this too????

    My experience with AGE has been the opposite, it's best at 2 to 5 weeks. It also holds up pretty well, took me about 7 weeks to finish a case this fall and was still good with the last can.

    I found the same...6 weeks not like the fresh but still real good
    Now this can of Superfun I was just handed and don't know the date (Grundy) didn't hold up I'm guessing

    One wonders why they do back to back releases with session beers in the winter. Would much rather see a stout or something with body. The last beer I want to drink after a long day outside in the cold working is a session IPA...

    I'm really happy with forever ever. Been going through it pretty quickly. :slight_smile: Going to give the superillo a week or two. First one was a bit boozy in my opinion but that's no big surprise.

    I'm thinking the tired hands collaboration release is going to be crazy. I think I'll be sitting that one out.

    ...especially when they went the entire spring/summer without canning a session.

    For those of you that have tried Suparillo lately, have you all found it to be a little boozy and needs a little time? Trying to figure out the optimal time to open it for a review.

    I had the first one the afternoon I got home from the release. I'll open the next one this weekend and see how much it has changed.

    I had a can on Thursday and another on Saturday and it was still pretty boozy. I would def give it some time.

    Yeah it's good. The malty roastiness outweighs the hoppiness.

    Anyone listen to Sam on Augie Cartons podcast last night? Thought it was a good interview. Matt will be on next week.

    Just listened. Pretty cool. I wish I could spend a day picking Sam's mind on hops. Could talk for hours.
