Witchshark was supposed to be released....but apparently did not hold up to the Witchshark flavour profile and will be released as another DIPA. Phantom Limb out now as well.

I have never been a huge fan of WS, so I'm curious as to how different the profile is. Boogie Monster, on the other hand, is awesome.

I love Boogie Monster...yeah curious to see what this batch of (not?) Witchshark tastes like..Phantom Limb in bottles? Only had on tap to date...

Ugh, not a fan of phantom limb...do enjoy Witchshark, but prefer Wizard Wolf, Roman Candle....and, perhaps Boogie Monster (I'll have to try thsi again, haven't had in a long time).

The new DIPA is pretty rough, lots of resiny taste...not bad, not a beer to seek out if you're not near the brewery though.

They used a different malt I am told.

Is this un-witchshark the bottle in the shop with the generic label?

Thanks. I now see they are calling it Trials and Tribulations DIPA.
