    Agree completely. It has been my favorite sweetwater beer to date. They sold out pretty quickly around town, so I am thinking it was well received.

    I agree also, it is also my favorite Sweetwater that I have tried.

    I thought that it was great and loved the price point.

    I had a nice small draft yesterday and loved it. Most of their line-up doesn't interest me, but this is a good one!

    I drank 3 bottles, and sent some out to trading partners as extras.

    It was a damn fine beer. I'd love if they'd make something like that in smaller bottles ( or cans ) and sell it as a regular beer. One of their higher rated beers infact.

    Definitely my favorite Sweetwarter Beer. I shot them a tweet demanding that they put in their regular lineup but apparently hop hash isn't easy to come by. They did say they were looking into it though. Maybe if we're lucky we can at least see it again one of their recurring seasonals.

    Hash might be hard to come by to brew it a bunch, but just regular old citra isn't and I'm sure they could make it with regular citra pellets and leaf.

    After reading this thread, I went to my favorite bottle shop the other day to see if they still had it on the shelf and it was gone. Should've pulled the trigger when I had the chance. Meh.

    If you guys are in Asheville I just saw some of Caldera Brewing's Hop Hash at Appalachian Vintner. If it is there, perhaps other places in NC have it as well. As far as I know, they were the first brewery to sell a beer brewed with "hop hash"

    I loved it when I smelled it and the first few sips. When it warmed up all I kept getting was intense onion and garlic with every smell and sip. It was the strangest thing.

    @Immortale25 if you're in Charlotte, there's some still out and about. BM me if you need locale.

    I picked up a bottle in Charleston when I was in town for Mexican Cake...this Johnny Hash is the shit. Great beer. Wish I had snagged more! Would love to see it in the regular rotation.

    It seems like I am in the minority here. Granted it sold out pretty quickly around here, but I was lucky enough to cant a pour from Tylers in Raleigh...I wasn't overly blown away with it. Don't get me wrong, it was very good...but not spectacular by any stretch.

    I think it is because people are excited Sweetwater finally put out another beer that is actually worth the marketing. I say that as a fan of Sweetwater, too.
