Mary in cans.....

Curious to know how/why they're doing cans for on-site consumption only. Doesn't seem very cost efficient with all of the additional equipment, materials, labor, etc.

Yeah, my guess is that this is essentially a test run and they're storing some both cold and at room temperature to see what kind of shelf stability they have.
 
If Shaun had a good sense of humor, he'd pack a few pallets of Dharma Bum into the back of a Ryder Truck, drive these down to Monson, and just blast the Good Humor ice cream song as he creeps past Tree House, to see how many people abandon the line to follow him back to Hill Farmstead.

Is this real ******* life? Cans of IPA for in house consumption only? They must have got a good batch of meth in Vermont.

Or...

For a guy as meticulous about his product as Shaun Hill, it seems totally reasonable to do it this way just to try it out. He sells a few cans onsite just to see what the response is, and how they hold up. If he doesn't like the way things go, or is dissatisfied with the quality in any way, he pulls the cans and they aren't out there floating around. He gets to control this version of his product, which is being packaged in a format not previously employed by HF, until he's comfortable with it being out there in the world.

Or meth. I don't know.

Sure, that would make sense if cans were brand new on the market thing but uh.... Yeah meth. Plus who packages IPA in a 12 oz can?
 
I'll feed you one more troll cookie....

Brewer A: makes an IPA. Deems it something they would sell. Has done no true QC. Let's it out the door.

Brewer B: makes an IPA. Deems it up to standards. Cans it. Tastes it. Sells it fresh in a controlled environment. Does not let it leave his establishment until further QC is done.

you have a problem with Brewer B?

Aged IPA? Strange. Also, if the above is true basically he's expecting people to pay to be his guinea pigs? The ****?
Funny how you left out the meat of that comment.

The bottom shelf of my fridge has a shitload of 12 oz cans, including Revolution Anti-Hero, Scofflaw IPA, Odd 13 n00b, Orpheus Transmigration of Souls, and the aforementioned CC (Tropicalia). And they're all glorious. So.......... yeah.

But anyway... Is anyone going up this weekend? Was thinking about making a run to celebrate the school year being over, but not 100%.
