    Glad to see Rugged Snuggle & All Mouth still up. Both awesome beers, and I like to see the variety in the tap list as well :slight_smile:

    Tuxedo Bulldozer was fantastic last week, would strongly recommend anyone try that that hasn't.

    Bam Bam sounds interesting. Ooo Wee was a bit too one-dimensional in it's sourness for me to enjoy.

    plan to go Saturday afternoon - a lot I've yet to try, looks like a good list.

    Look forward to trying the original Shimmy Ye, been 6-8 months since they've made that if I'm not mistaken, so I suspect they have probably dialed it in quite a bit and should be a homerun.

    I'm in New Providence also, sounds good to me. I'm retired so if you guys who are working can find a time I'm in.

    you might be right, but at least has been that long since I had it last... my last check-in was in April, and I don't recall seeing it since then... there are other Shimmy check-ins on Untappd since then, but many of those are actually mistaken Lil' Shimmy... in any event, looking forward to it.:slight_smile:

    At the brewery, Shimmy Ye’ as good as ever. Kicked up a notch to 8.3% ABV. No growler sales

    I've only been there twice on a Friday, but it was pretty busy each time.

    I had Tuxedo Bulldozer last night and thought it was very good. In fact, I think it's the best IPA I've had at TE.

    was there today and Tuxedo Bulldozer was so dank it tasted like straight MJ... good stuff... think I preferred True Believers out of the flight I tried.... Shimmy was real good, but Lil' Shimmy still outshines it... I also like Bam Bam, the hoppy blonde quite a bit.

    I appreciate the fact that they include the general ingredients bill on their cans.

    I doubt those cans will last until 1:30, I'll have to get there early. Might even drive past at around 11:30 to see if there is a line

    Last LSY, I arrived around 11:30 and had maybe 40 people in front of me, it was one of the hotter days, so that number increased as people's partners and friends left their air conditioned cars and got into line as the doors opened.

    May want to try 11 tbh.
