    Anyone make it out to Bryant Lake Bowl last night for our "8-Bit" release? In case you missed it, we gave away a super rad prize package (NES system w/ original packaging + light gun!). We're having our 2nd release at Nomad for the Midweek Beer Geek next Wednesday. https://www.facebook.com/events/253981944684251/

    8-Bit is our new hop-rocketed APA w/ Galaxy hops. Really sessionable Pale that drinks like an IPA. Absolutely loving this hop right now!

    Yeah. Slight confusion with the can manufacturer, but we're back on track and cans are being filled now. Should hit retail the week of March 5th. If you make the event on Wednesday, good chance I'll have some cans there.

    Looking forward to seeing this beer in stores. Had this weekend at Barley's in KC and found it to be tasty.

    I can tell you where it's not, cause nowhere I have been has had it. Negative at Gomer's KS, Riman's, and Falcon Valley Wine and Spirits as of Wednesday.
