Tired Hands (May 2016)

It's not going to become bad or anything that dramatic in that short time but keeping it cold would be ideal.

Just goes to show how inconsistent these releases have gotten. I had a can of HH last night and it was much better than the cans I had from last month. Those had almost no carbonation while the can I had last night was normal and I thought it was pretty good.

Pineal from last week was a real highlight too. That is a delicious beer.

 

My only two cans from TH so far were recent ones: St Oner and last weeks Pineal.

Both were easily some of the best beers I've ever had in that style outside of Vermont.

 

He said it was "A LOT more bitter than usual, and hardly any carb". This coming from someone that typically loves HH.

 

Agreed, this was the best batch of Pineal to date IMO. Glad I was able to snag a case of it.

 

There's something wrong then. I had cans with no carb last time and someone else gets them this time.

I should have gotten more Pineal.

 

With the rush to pump out cans every week, does it surprise me that the incidence of issues is increasing. But money has to be printed. Move along, nothing to see here.

 

Had one last night. Carbonation was good, tasted just as I remembered it....this should be a fun evening. Russian Roulette with my HH...

 

It's not cheap to send everyone over to Stockholm.

 

Anyone know if there are still any cans left?

 

Their instagram said there were cans of both left today.

 

Yes but "today" according to operating hours as been taking place for almost 5 hours. so that may be why they are asking..

 

To answer my own question, yes they are. 4 packs of helles still available.

 

Fist time having TacoHands last night, and it oddly works - good stuff. Got a growler to go.

 

I had the Puebla Nebula and it was good too. It was a much lighter version of a pepper/spice/coffee stout. I'll try TacoHands next if it's still around.

 

you could have sampled ourison. it is the saisonhands, but bottle conditioned. same beer though. I dont think you will be disappointed with either though.

 

just a heads up, ferm opens at noon and the cafe at 4pm.

 

Cans of the Helles are still for sale two days later. That anti-lager bias is so strong but I enjoy Helles Other People.

 

This may be a first - cans lasting two days after a release? I didn't think twice about this most recent release, it was an easy pass.

 

Not sure why - even if you dont drink em you can trade em for something better. I did IP trades this week on HopHands for SoS. I shipped the Helles + other random Tired Hands in a mix pack to get a Parabola and a Dinner.

 

Wow, nice job. I know HopHands is highly sought after (for reasons I'll never understand), but Parabola and Dinner for a lager? Although I suppose the key there was "other random Tired Hands".
