    Released today. Has anyone tried it? How is it? Also anyone know the prices they are selling it for at the brewery?

    Dunno, but they must have brewed a lot of it if the limit is 5 cases at the brewery.

    From their blog
    "Nimble Giant, clocking in at 9% ABV and 69 IBUs, is available on draft and in 4-packs of 16-oz. cans wherever you find Troegs. At our Hershey brewery, you’ll find draft, 16-oz. singles, 4-packs, cases, growlers, crowlers and a handful of 3-liter bottles starting at 11 a.m. June 27. And if you’re buying it here, please keep it to 5 cases or less."

    Got a 4 pack for 12.99 expecting a decent, and in actuality getting a really good beer. It reminds of Waldo's light. Lighter color, lighter smell, and lighter taste, but cut from the same, resin soaked cloth.

    It would be nice for a larger brewery to have a cheaper price per 4-pk. I guess the $14+ 4-pack is the new norm. Sigh.

    The problem I have with Dirtwolf is that I rarely see fresh 4 packs anymore.

    I'm hoping to pick some Nimble up this week, as well. I asked my local bottle shop and they may receive it tomorrow.
