    Anyone have latest batch of Full Stack? Much more maltier than I remember, less juicy.

    I think I saw a Twitter post about Does Anybody Remember Laughter? cans this week. Are they sending all their cans out, or are some on-site only? I don't think I have seen cans at any of the stores I usually go to.

    They are sometimes vague about where a beer is going. Other times they make it clear. I think 'all of you' in the post means it hits distro, but IDK if there is evidence of them ever not keeping some back? If I am wrong please correct me BA

    Had another can of Full Stack, what happened to this beer? I have had a lot of this in the past, this batch is terrible. Two sips and a drain pour. Smells good, but taste is very malty. Unfortunately I have 6 more cans of this.

    I assume you mean terrible by NYC and NE IPA standards, right? It wasn't like it was undrinkable, I am hoping. More just not your style?

    I have had a lot of this beer, always loved it, this batch is bad.

    Had my first can of DARL this weekend. This batch was fantastic.

    DDH Is This The Real Life is delicious. I also went to Singlecut last night and they still had cans of DDH SSMS. They upped it to $22 for a 4-pack, which is too high to warrant purchase in my books. They were playing Dark Side of the Rainbow last night too (Wizard of Oz with Dark Side of the Moon)...very cool.

    Looks like there will be three new cans coming out

    DDH Bon Bon: the Aussie giant gets a new and second dry-hopping. Custom made for neck snappin' and check cashin'

    Charlie's Good Tonight: natively DDH IPA. Smooth, tropical, always in the pocket.

    日本から来たネコ (some cat from japan): the kitten version of Weird & Gilly. Full vibrant juice with low bitterness and a full body (especially for 4.2%)

    Been bummed with how little Singlecut I've seen distributed. Definitely want to try DDH SSMS and ITTRL but haven't seen them anywhere.

    I was surprised to find ITTRL all over the place Thursday afternoon. Saw cans at 209 Station in Brooklyn and cans at Malt and Mold. Clinton gourmet had them too per Instagram.

    DDH ITTRL even made it to distro in Philly! This is my new favorite Singlecut. God damn...bitter bomb. $7.50 a can but oh well. I'll pay it for great beer.

    Well, I still haven't seen either of the other beers, but my supermarket just got a shipment of Weird and Gilly. Just happens to be my favorite IPA from Singlecut so I am stoked.

    Weird and Gilly is their best hands down, for whatever that's worth. I haven't enjoyed DDH SSMS nearly as much and it's way too pricey to begin with.

    Would you mind describing the beer?

    I saw it here in NJ at $4.99 for a single can. Price point alone intrigued me.

    Which? Funny thing is either are worth about $5 but no more. WG is very aromatic which I love. It's juicy with enough of a hop bite backbone to balance it out. DDH SSMS comes off as tasting too flat and boozy which I suppose can be ok if I've already given up on the day.
