    Would love to see a canned version of the Peach Citra Pale Ale.

    In general it's $10-15 for a refill and $15-20 for a fill with new glass. I pulled that off their FB page. Cheers.

    The only beer I've had from them was their IPA and that was decent, but that was probably about a year ago. I'll probably have to head down to the brewery one day

    Same here, gonna be over that way for some. Business so figured I should go check them out finally, maybe some fresh IPA will help its cause and I do hear good things about that porter

    I'm still waiting for Spellbound to pop up in my area of NJ. I've seen the ipa on tap about 7 miles from me but that was only once about a year ago and I haven't seen anything since then. Really want to try some of their stuff

    Ditto. I had their Citra Pale Ale on tap at a bar in Asbury Park (Langosta Lounge) and the lingering malt after-taste was way too much for what's supposed to be a crisply refreshing pale ale. It's the only thing I've had from Spellbound so far, but wasn't impressed at all. Maybe it was old? Idk why it would be -- that place gets a lot of foot traffic and the other beers tasted fine.

    Stick with the non IPA stuff from Spellbound and you'll be fine. The Palo Porter is great.

    Agreed. Haven't had an impressive hoppy beer from Spellbound yet - that said, I am relishing the last few Palo Santo Porters I have left (it's a long drive for me).

    Anyone grab the new batch of cans this past week, I went on Friday and got 2 sixpacks of the IPA, and they taste horrible, like an infection happened?

    agreed, very tasty. The can says that it can be aged, but at 6.9% and in a can, I wonder how it will hold up.

    What do they taste like? Have you contacted the brewery?

    Band aid, no not yet, just looking it was a bad set or something like that

    Will concur with some of the sentiments. I know a few people who dig their IPA as being "refreshing" and "summery", but not for me. But the Palo Santo Porter is a go-to for me when at a NJ beer that's lacking the porter/stout department during winter.
