    Growler Filling Policy: "Please feel free to fill as many growlers as you would like. In Pennsylvania, each transaction must be limited to 192 fluid ounces. This means that upon receipt, if you would like to purchase more than 192 fluid ounces of our beer, you must leave the premises and then return to pick up additional beer (and then repeat the cycle if you’d like any more beer!).

    We will also be opening up for 64 oz growler fills on MOST ALL BEERS. There will, of course, continue to be a few beers that we will not do any growler fills of (one-off kegs, anniversary beers, etc.), but this should be a rare occurrence.

    We will continue to fill our branded glassware only, as we are STILL exceedingly proud to put our name on our Strange & Beautiful beer. If this is a very big issue for you, we will be happy to let you “trade-in” any growler for one of ours. Sound good?"

    Growler fill Prices
    64 oz:     $20.00
    32 oz: $10.50
    Glass: $5.00

    (prices vary occasionally for higher gravity / limited quantity beers)[/

    that keyboard sound you keep hearing is people typing "ISO" at a furious rate.

    A tart triple IPA @ $24/4pk - I'll pass on this one.

    Looking at the radar, this should make for an interesting release and some chairs that go missing.

    But, based on their track record of overly sweet Triple IPAs, the fact that it's $24 a 4-pack, the inconsistency of HopHands, and the expected weather - this is the easiest pass on a release for me, maybe to-date.

    They moved the release to 4p because of the weather. Not sure that's going to help considering the bad stuff is supposed to hit starting around 3ish.

    Also - 3 4pks of Secret and 1 Cast of Hop Hands

    I lost interest in today's release when they described it as having "gin-like notes" and saw the 10.2% abv. Sounds super boozy.

    On the bright side, they've been putting out some great beers recently (not the Milkshakes). Double Birth, Found a Scythe, and some of the sours on tap at the Ferm especially.

    I was disappointed - I just missed out on Rust and decay 2. Hoping it sees bottles

    Yeah, that definitely is going to backfire on them. The bad weather should be cleared out by 5:00 easily. I guess there's no
    Couldn't agree more. I know they like to hype-up each release, but what a poor choice of wording. Sounds disgusting.

    Has anyone tried the triple? Debating on if it's worth it.

    I had picked a 4 pack of the triple and really enjoyed it. I'm not a big fans of the TH IPAs with fruit but this one really works. Def worth trying.

    I have yet to crack a can, but the local beer Facebook groups I'm part of seem to be underwhelmed.

    They (Tired Hands) just teased a photo on their Instagram of a new label. I wonder if this will be another Sunday release, AND, are regular Sunday releases the new norm?.. (my wallet hopes not)

    I hope so, seems like they have been making the weekday releases a little less crazy lol.

    When I got pissy the other week about when they were having releases this is exactly what I was talking about. New norms, old norms, who knows??!!

    I hope so! No possible way I can make Wednesday releases. Happy if I can travel on the weekend now to get TH cans.
