    It's always after 5 pm. Turn on post notifications on IG--they'll post when the cans are live.

    The cans sell out faster than 5 minutes, so you will strike out unless you happen to get lucky.

    Cans are pretty easy to score if you're free after 5 pm and have the time to spare until it's posted.

    Cans seem to drop between 5pm and 5:15pm, then sell out in 10-15 minutes. Hardly an inconvenience if you ask me. The only times I've struck out is because I wasn't paying attention or simply forgot, lol.

    The hardest R+B releases to get are actually their glassware, the last one sold out in less than a minute. Hopefully that won't be as much of an issue when the new brewery opens! :0)

    Growing Up Absurd is majestic, BTW. Picked up my cans this afternoon. And tried Abysmal Thoughts on tap--that was also exceptional. Go grab a pour of it if you missed the can release or haven't already!

    When is R+B moving from Evil Twin? Visiting NY from Australia in June, and hoping to grab some cans.

    They said they have two more ET releases. So that would be Final release in 4 weeks from this past Friday by their regular schedule. They allow pickup thru the Wednesday after. Around 5 Thursday before the release they post on Instagram. That's a rough time. Could be a bit earlier or later.

    There was a lone exception to that where they did not skip a week. Check their website early Thurs to be one hundred percent sure there is a release (sometimes they announce on their website earlier in the week, again not 100 percent consistent).

    Didn’t they mention they’re doing a barrel stout drop through 12%? I wonder if The Grand Inquisitor is that

    very much enjoying life and fate ix, just got around to my first can. Pineapple and orange, slightest bit grassy on the nose. Slightly sweet in the middle before a balanced bitterness to the finish, that grassy note comes back as well. Definitely one of my favorite life and fates - cheers!

    With The Assayer coming this week, any guesses on what the final release will be?

    We were able to squeeze an extra batch in this month at ET. Our final release out of ET will be 6/30.
