    Unless I'm blind I didn't see it on the SN Release date page. I love this seasonal, was it yanked from the release this yearr?

    Yep I don't remember the specifics but it's going to be replaced with some sort of collaboration Oktoberfest that changes every year... or something like that, again I cant remember.

    They want to see me cry I guess. I did enjoy the fest last year though I have to say.

    I personally never liked it - and I love most of everything they make. Wasn't piney enough for me.
    I really like the idea of a non-IPA like Oktoberfest taking the slot.

    Tumbler is back and it was in last year's fall variety pack, I imagine it will be in this year's too.

    RE: Flipside, not my favorite of theirs but drinkable. With the Oktoberfest being the seasonal release that could free up a beer from the Fall variety pack so maybe Flipside will be in there.

    Was a fan of Flipside looked forward to it, hopefully they'll throw it in somewhere in the future. Now if they'd replace it with Tumbler for good..that, that I could live with!

    SN is going to be doing an Oktoberfest as their fall seasonal from now on. I wanna say they're going to collaborate with a different German brewery each year, but don't quote me.

    As for Flipside and Tumbler, they'll probably get the mixpack treatment like they did last year.

    Not to go off topic but what happened to Ruthless Rye. I love that beer.

    It looks to me like Sierra Nevada is trying to move into Lagers.

    I was looking forward to enjoying this brew, since I'm a fan of a Hoppy Red Ale. This one did not deliver for me. I agree with your above statement.

    @sierranevadabill

    Can we get the skinny on this one? Looks like about half of us (maybe a bit better, math was never my strong suit.....) are fans of it. Love to hear if it's going to make a different return, but hate to hear if it's going away for good.
