    Should hold for a long time imo, although the hop character might die off. Also shouldn’t need to be in the fridge either

    Holy cow, just tried Spatula! What an amazing surprise! Flavor work so well and so balanced

    My understanding is it'll continue to develop in these cans, and short answer is... You want a HOPPY saison... Then drink now. You want a FUNKY saison... Hold. I guess the real question is where is the mid point that is neither satisfying to hopheads or...uh... farmhouse boiz?

    Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. Question to folks ordering from Dudley Direct and within a 15 mile radius from the Fermentaria. How many days did it take after placing the order for your beer to arrive at your doorstep?

    Was that before the shutdown or after now that they are shipping all the time?

    I ordered Friday and delivery arrived today. A bit quicker than I was expecting honestly.

    Thanks @tsfinn23 for the information. I’ll respond here when I receive my beer just for people to use as a point of reference.

    @Chroma914 @NickCaff @Adrena1ine @tsfinn23

    Tagged you guys to let you know my order came today (4/15) around 4pm. However, i emailed dudleydirect around noon and politely asked if they can give me an estimate as to when i can expect my order. Not certain whether or not that helped. Long and behold at 3:55 pm today, i receive a text "I'll be at your house in 5 min!". Luckily, i was near my phone when this text message came in and saw this right away or else i would have missed them. So bottom line: Their communication is suffering right now due to demand and i completely understand the circumstances. THBC delivered in 1 to 3 days for locations within 15 mi radius as promised and my beer is cold as promised. Will I order again? Yes. I am completely satisfied. However, my recommendation to folks within 15 mi radius and ordering dudley in the near future is dont stray far from your phone for 3 days cause you'll likely miss your order, lol!

    If you don't mind me asking just because im curious how was your beer packaged? When mine arrived it wasn't in the standard labeled Dudley Direct box and there was absolutely no packing materials surrounding the cans. Just (4) 4pks carelessly tossed in the box.

    It was packed neatly in a 11x11x7 standard cardboard box with a sticker label on the side. No packing material but they weren’t just tossed inside. They had placed the (4) 4packs cans upright in a neat fashion. Should have taken a picture

    Worth noting I ordered some TH beers this past Friday, and they arrived to me today, here in Pittsburgh. They were packed ok and still reasonably cool to the touch (the cans anyway, the bottles not so much).

    I'm very happy with my purchase and would order from TH/Dudley again if they offer more beers that I find desirable.

    Shame, I guess if this happens to anyone else take a picture, should be at least some token recompense. I mean they're selling out even hop hands and alien church, they should be able to pack your shipment reasonably. Sounds like you're an outlier, but that stinks. I've only had good experiences with tired hands, and going to St. Oners to get beers worked out just fine the other week for me.
