    The cans of Pupil I've been drinking (canned 2/13) taste better to me than the last few times I've had it on draft outside the brewery.

    Maybe just a little too classic for some? Do they distribute their cans?

    Also worth a mention in norcal is henhouse. Petaluma's finest purveyor of the west coast IPA and I swear I've gotten a 4 pack for 9.99

    Sounds like cans are making their way North of the CA border...

    So many decent IPAs from PP and they seem to have ignored the haze craze. My current favorite is Surfari. Just in the last year 16 oz cans of In The Pit, Jetty IPA, Party Shirt, Pickleweed Point, South of the Pier, Chirpin’ Bird and DIPAs Sidewalk Surfin' and Kook. Whatever is new shows up at Trader Joes.

    Cranking a Stone Diehard Fan IPA. Not a bad Westy, that’s for sure!

    I live in the land of murk and glurk (murk with large floaties) and do look for relief in the form of a nice clear (with a little hops haze) West Coast IPA. My go to is Wormtown's Be Hoppy, my favorite so far is Bad Boy from Alpine.

    I would also like to take this time to complain about how Beers that should not be murky are murky in this region, e.g. Brown Ales, Pale Ales, Amber/Reds and even some Octoberfests!!!

    When I’m willing to go for a IIPA and I see fresh cans I always grab Lupulin Lust from Rip Current. The classic citrus and pine.

    Hard to find it fresh anymore, but Lupulin River from Knee Deep is still delicious.

    I’m assuming that’s a joke, but you can’t tell with just text. 2020.
    I’ll review it in the next couple days as I’ve never had it but <1 month old refrigerated seems acceptable for freshness.

    Very tasty beer especially if you can find it on tap.
