    They heard your prayer!

    From FB:
    "Citra and Lotus collide to create a beautiful expression of citrus and tropical fruit in our newest 7.5% DIPA, Whimsical Nature.
    .
    Distro has begun and it will be available to-go in 4-packs here at the brewery at 3pm.
    .
    Happy Superbowl week!"

    Changing my name to KingSzeBurrito so I can get in on all the hoppy breaking news.

    This may have been addressed but is the taproom open for Phase Three or closed until renovations are done?

    Closed. They are aiming for a grand opening around April.

    It was to funny to see some uniformed followers to Josh Noel’s tweet of the news mock Phase Three for opening a brewery in a spot where 2 have failed. I’ll take any bets that they want haha

    I’m not gonna rifle through this dude's brain fart of tweets. Was wondering if you could post it?
    Since the other producer of superior BA stouts in this city (not Rev:wink:) doesn’t want him around I find it funny he’d go after the P3.

    Not even worth finding, the snark is minimal and mostly easy dad jokes, and appears to be made by the drunk uncles that make up Noel’s audience.

    If you followed Josh, you'd know that now is not a good time to be looking for the Tribune to employ you :wink:

    Was Noel mocking P3 or the comments?

    Honestly I don’t know why LZ brew didn’t capitalize on housing one of the hottest breweries.

    its gotta be pretty soul crushing to have worked a long time to try to survive as a brewery, only to have Shaun contract brew there and get a 500 member sellout within months of opening and have tons of people come to your brewery only asking for P3 beer. Might have been the final death blow.

    I mean it was pretty obvious from day 1 that it was going to go down like this. A giant brewery, hardly anyone has heard of it, lets another brewery come in a brew because they aren't brewing every day, it was a recipe for acquisition.

    It's interesting that Miskatonic has been able to capture some of Hop Butcher's heat as that wasn't something LZ was able to do with Phase 3. I thought for sure Miskatonic would be done for but they seem more popular than ever.

    I've had their beer. And THAT popularity I do not understand.
