    The last time they canned they had some cases left the next day actually, not a lot but I think they had like 40 to start the day.

    Very tasty! Pretty subtle on the cherry but the brett's all there.

    The cherries make the beer a bit tart, and they've got the brett at that nice fruity stage, so it comes together pretty nicely I think. Stopped by today and they've just started the brett pale ale, which offers a fun comparison, although the cherry is nearly gone as I understand.

    Tasted it again tonight and now finding cherry more evident - wasn't competing with the garlic-heavy meal I had it with last night!

    If I go to Fiddlehead the Saturday or Sunday of a Wednesday canning, are there usually cans left or do I not stand a chance?

    The next canning is Wednesday, February 11th. In the past it has been selling out the day of each canning. They've sent a few cases from each canning to local beer stores a day or two after the canning. That has sold quickly as well.

    If you see it for 12 then snap it up, it's $13 a 4-pack at the brewery...

    Interesting! So I guess one can infer there will come a time when they will have both Second Fiddle and Mastermind available,

    I'm hoping that with there increased brewing capacity that they will be able to run both Mastermind and Second Fiddle at the same time or at least canning them on alternate weeks. But I wouldn't expect to see it until later in the year

    Shattered my shoulder a week after I got 2 cases of SF with the intent on trading 1 and keeping 1. Thank God I kept both. It's the only thing that's kept me from jumping in front of a truck these past 3 Weeks. Gotta send someone to grab more as my rehab will run thru March.

    Anyone know the hops they are using on Second Fiddle? Just tried a can from the 2/11 run and it tasted strong on Apollo. Just was wondering if I was right or not.
