    Had one last night. It was pretty good. It won't be the next Daisy Cutter or Zombie Dust (I know those are pales), but I'd drink it again, which I might not say about some of their other beers.

    Matt no longer works here. He accepted a position working for Lagunitas.

    I was really looking forward to this beer as I've been wanting a good, local everyday IPA. The can aspect had me even more hopeful. I'm having my first one as I type and am enjoying it. The can has a best by date clearly stamped on the bottom, which is another plus. I can see Outlaw becoming a staple in my fridge and giving me another reason to drink local.

    On my fourth, and my opinion keeps floating between ok.... to a really solid 6.3% abv and 60 ibu's. Bitterness upfront, than some tropical fruitiness , and a splash of sweet. Overall, I think it's pretty good, and balances on the line of sessionsable and more powerfull IPAs.

    It is actually a really good beer. Fancy can aside, what is inside actually tastes great and I will keep buying.
    Better than anything Sixpoint has put out and beats Threadless IPA.
    Of course IMO.

    Definitely beats out anything the Brothers have called an IPA to this point...not bad at all...I do so enjoy pleasant surprises...

    Sounds good! My name is Vince and I'm the new "Beer Guy". Look forward to meeting you. Just an FYI about the Can Cave, we dedicated our walk-in cooler to cans. We took a good amount of our craft cans and threw them in there. There is still some of the macro breweries in there, but it's mostly craft.

    Cheers!

    Binny's in Willowbrook had some as of Friday. Had my first one on the golf course yesterday. Not great, but very respectable. I would recommend trying it.
