    I think it was the December release where @jrnyc was showing off his dance moves as we tried to prevent frostbite from claiming our feet.

    Does anyone know if Sparkler was distributed or is it just at the brewery?

    Kegs of these releases usually make it around the city but no the cans are not being distributed. I just finished my last one and I'm kicking myself for not buying more.

    This is a far more useful response than mine.

    They claim there will be more access to the small batch beers now that they've joined Victory so we'll see.

    Making my Red Hook return for this one. Both of these new brews sound delightful! And $22/4 is still wayyyyy better than $20/1....:no_mouth:

    Any word on today’s draft list? I’ll be there before noon most likely, after @thisischuck01 and I hit OH.

    Everything on tap was super-solid, especially that salty balls beer. I hope it gets re-brewed next summer and hits distro a la Citra Jammer. I could drink that one all day.

    Gotta love it anytime you can get your hands on some delicious balls. Smooth Raspy + Guava + Papaya is a winner in my book. Hopefully we see some more experiments in preparation for a diversely-fruited Raspy day in 2019.

    I really liked it. Super smooth, got a lot of cinnamon today, but it was a softer version -- more like cinnamon crumble than licking a cinnamon stick. Didn't get any sign of it being 13%, but it was amongst a ton of other beers. Will hopefully get another crack at it tomorrow with a (fairly) fresh palate and add more notes.
