Plus I saw that Conclave has a new IPA coming out this Friday. Looking forward to trying it! Tim, any specifics on hops, etc?

Double Dry hopped with all New Zealand hops: Nelson, Rakau, Motueka

Just tried Brotherton IPA. Holy **** this beer is good. Juicy, tons of tropical fruit, hazy as ****. We may have another serious player in the North East hops game.

I am really interested in trying this. This forum and the other one are talking Brotherton up pretty good. A good friend of mine tried 5 of their beers this past weekend at the Valenzano Winery event and came back with "good but not great."

Has anyone else tried them on here?

Just as a note here, I have only tried their IPA. I can't really speak on their other brews, but in my opinion the IPA is top notch.

i had the IPA and the Jersey Devil DIPA last week and thought they were pretty awesome! the IPA was real easy drinking and pretty damn dank. the DIPA was a little thick for my taste but other that that it was extremely juicy and fruity.

Just booked my VT trip on November 10-13. anyone else going up that time? It is 'stick season' up there so hoping some peeps from here might be up there to spend some quality time. I AirBnB'd it this time. There is a house right behind pro-pig on there now. 2 br, $200 a night. full kitchen, etc.

Tim this is the nj thread I think you have the wrong thread. But when are you taking orders?

Tim this is the nj thread I think you have ever the wrong thread. But when are you taking orders?

1) I have been drinking
2) I said I wanted to hang with NJ people, hence the NJ post
3) I always take orders the weekend before...you know that.

If it's the place at the end of the block, the Carriage House, it's a KILLER spot for the price. The pottery house also looked awesome.

Sooooooo who's going to the Kane Anniversary? (surprised it hasn't been brought up yet)

I was thinking about trying to make my way down to Kane, but I think I'm going to hit the OH can release instead. I had that Simcoe/Wai-iti on tap a couple weeks ago and it was ridiculous.

I'm trying to decide the same thing.

 

[DigDug1810]

For you Clementine fans out there. Should be on the shelf Saturday from what the email I got states... they should have a bunch and i'd imagine sticks around for at least a week probably more. $22/750ml

For me at this point, I'd rather go and come back with beer to drink that'll last me a few weeks.

One anniversary bottle would be awesome if you can swing it. No worries if not.

do they usually have separate lines between general entry and the anniversary bottle? I don't have any interest in the bottle - just not a fan of big Belgians - but would love to stop by to pick up a case of Head High cans and maybe a growler or two. does filling a growler/buying cans require a lengthy line on anniversary day or are those separate than the the bottle/rare fills? might just skip it if it's one big line for entry in general.

 

[Newmoneyloons]

Any one going to conclave tomorrow to try their new talk show host/meat/refreshing ipa?

Last year it was two separate lines for buying bottles and for getting in. They also had separate lines inside for different pours.
