    On Sunday, August 21, we are releasing cans of our latest and greatest hoppy creation, the New Zealand IPA! Brewed with all whole flower Nelson Sauvin, Waimea, and Rakau hops and clocking in at 7% ABV, our homage to the land of the kiwis is bright, bold, and spicy with intense hop flavors.

    In tandem with the beer, we're debuting a new pint glass, specifically designed for cans! Two-sided printed in black and white inks for application with any beer.

    The physical canning will take place on 8/15. $ and limit to be announced after the run. We are releasing the beer on draft at the same time so fear not if you miss out on cans, we'll have it available for pints and fills on the 21st. It's a been a while since our last release - we look forward to seeing some familiar faces!

    Nice!!! I'll be there early! 5 C's and Mosaic were excellent.

    I've never made it to a can release at Vault. Are these likely to be gone in an hour or is there a chance they hang around until the afternoon/evening?

    That's the question I was about to ask.

    Also, thanks for starting the thread, @M-Fox24. I'd love to make it out but it'd be a little later than that.

    I believe CCCCC lasted a bit longer into the day, which could be the case here? So perhaps a safe bet, but nothing is assured

    Either way, it says they would have some for growler fills, so I'd be able to try some regardless.

    Last time I went to the Vault, the beers were a bit underwhelming, but I went immediately after going to Conclave, so that might be part of the "problem". I'd love to try agian.

    Conclave will do it for sure + really depends when you go and what they have on. That being said, I can't speak to this release, as its new (I think) and have yet to try it.

    Their anniversary is when they usually drop the RIS variants, and have a solid draft list to accompany

    Vault constantly rotates all their selections. I've had some I thought were great and some I didn't care for as much. All depends when you go I guess.

    Yikes! Only 90 cases so that could go quick. I was thinking of bringing the family there to eat. Hope I can get cans a bit later in the day.

    I might try to go, but not going to kill myself to get there on time. Was trying to think of something to do this Sunday and this sort of popped on the radar.

    Cans are still here at 2:15, and the beer is tasty!

    How does Vault can their beers? Do they own their own canning line? If not, do they utilize a mobile canning service? Which mobile canning service?

    Cheers!
