    I have 2 from the original shipment to FL, dated BB24AUG2016. The new batch should be some day in October. Mr Point will read Diz' post and clarify, I feel sure. (Had one last night, as a matter of fact. The aroma hops have faded some, but the alpha hops are going strong. Loved it.)

We appreciate the support you've provided to us over the years and trust that you know we ultimately are doing what is best for everyone in the long term.

    I looked into this right away this morning - our Operations Coordinator did confirm that cans were run at 4am and the wrong code date was applied to this beer by mistake. A new protocol has been put in place to reduce the probability of this happening again.

    Thanks for the feedback! Just to confirm my understanding then, these were bottled on July 16, 2016 and are best consumed within 100 days, so they should have a BBD October 24, 2016?

    I heard lots of good things about the first batch and so I grabbed these as soon as they I saw them popped up at WF. Had one last night it was quite tasty.

    I grabbed a 4pk yesterday. Either I got it a lot fresher than last time or its been dialed-in a lot more. So good!

    Did the new batch make distro in FL, Mr Point? Haven't seen any. Thanks. Good stuff, but I'm out.

    Man, originally I thought this was going to be brewed once and done this year. Is it ever going to stop, or are we Puffing and chugging all year long?

    Can't and couldn't find it around Tampa, except for the May batch still on shelves. Gives me a chance to try the Enjoy Unfiltered. Brought home 4 bombers., and it's almost as good as Puff. Can't buy what ain't there.

    Both of the total wines near me still haven't gotten the newer batch, I think Mendez Fuel got it but that's about it. One of the guys at TW mentioned they wouldn't be ordering more until they sold off what they had left of the first supply.

    @Sixpoint with Puff having a BBD of 100 days, has Resin also gotten an updated BBD of 100 days?

    Amazing news. Is there a batch number or a BB date that started the new dating system?

    Had a Resin on the train home yesterday, and it was dope.

    Heading down to Toledo this weekend again. Hoping I can pick up a few more 4packs of Puff and few more of Resin. Stuff is AmAzInG!
    When can Mi. get in on this delicious brewery?...

    Picked up a case of this in western Iowa last week (special badge on untappd). Sure glad I did it was amazing. First sixpoint beer I've ever had. Will definitely be getting more. Going to be picking up some Resin real soon. Big IIPA fan.

    I'd have to double-check but I believe this was implemented in April 2016.

    No plans at this time - but luckily Ohio is a short drive for you!

    really great to hear
