Wormtown Be Hoppy

Had it on Tap in Milford about a year ago and and thought it was awesome. Found 4 pack of cans at Yankee in Sturbridge.

 

would a keg from 5/2 still be fresh?

 

I bought a log of Be Hoppy at Fifth Ave in Millis on May 3rd. It was filled May 2nd.
Now that's fresh..

 

Wait, what?

 

Sprit Haus in Amherst has them regularly, but they go quick. $11.25/4-pack (11.45 with deposit).

 

Shhhh, thats my new jam when visiting my girl

 

I made it to Tree House scored Julius & Eureka w Citra. A little bummed that I missed the Very Green? new release latter that weekend. Thought while I was in the area I would like to score some Wormtown stuff. Not distributed in my area and had heard good things about Be Hoppy. On advice from guys at Tree House I stopped at a couple places on the return trip home and scored 2 4 packs of Be Hoppy and a couple bombers of Be Hoppier. Successful trip but left my CC at the Tree House oh well, sh*t happens. Miss the Koi pond but look fwd to their expansion!

 

Okay - can I get a do over? Hopulence > Be Hoppy > Be Hoppier > Buddha's Juice. . .

 

Had it for the first time on Draft this past Saturday at Buffalo Wild Wings and it was a little better on draft than in a can. Phenomenal beer!

 

They have good beer at Buffalo Wild Wings???

 

Hoponius Union and Be Hoppy are the only 2 great beers in there. Rebel IPA is pretty good on tap. I went to the one in Shrewsbury. Pretty much those are the only choices for IPA's

 

On draft as of last night @ Steel and Rye in Milton.

 

I wonder if we are going to see more cans before they move.

 

any update on new canning?

 

there was a post somewhere about Wormtown halting canning for july to focus on keg accounts, and will resume in August (going off memory here, so I might not have that correct).

 

thanks for the quick reply

 

That was mine I think. Ran into distributor at a local store, asked about Beer Camp and Wormtown (I was buying a Hopulence bomber). He said Wormtown was concentrating on gaining draft handles in more bars, so didn't can in July and wouldn't can in August. He said they thought gaining a draft handle would be more lasting, longer term benefit than selling out a run of cans to existing fans of the beer. Makes sense for market penetration. The good news was that he said we'd see cans, and lots more of them, once the new brewery is up and running in Sept. and that we'd have cans of Hopulence as well.

 

thanks for the clarification.

"@WormtownBrewery cans of Be Hoppy coming down the pike soon?" Yup, canning on 7/30.
