Ooooh, nice. I wish they'd update all of their social media accounts when they announce releases like this. I generally miss some because I don't check Twitter/Instagram/Facebook religiously throughout the day and things get lost in the flood of other posts.

It's really good. If there's any left I could grab some and trade it around to anyone on here who wants it.

I would definitely take one or two. I don't think I'll make it out to the brewery to get some.

I'll try and stop by tonight on my way home from work. I think there may have been a limit of 2. I'll respond back here to confirm.

Yeah, if anyone gets in on this, I have a surplus of bellwoods to trade. Would love to try.

I just grabbed 5 from the brewery. Still a bit left so if there's still demand I could grab some tomorrow too. They were 6.50 a can. PM me if interested.

They do seem to be updating the list on the web-site more regularly too. Hopefully that is done regularly (daily) going forward...

Apparently the GLB x Amsterdam Life Sentence IIIPA is coming back, too. Though looks like this time it'll have lots of Yakima hops in it (articles about the first batch from last year that I found only mentioned Amarillo, Nelson, Simcoe, and Citra).

They're showing a beer called Night Terrors. Does anyone know what kind of beer this is? Can't find anything online.

Neither can I, but I'm going to stop by the brewery later anyway and ask (while picking up a bottle or two of the stout).

Edit: Looks like it's another Imperial Stout.
