What's the 7.5 and 7? How many bottles were left or something? Half a bottle?

It's how much joy money you part with.

* Edit * the Psidiumism is really good, it's Milkshark-y in a different way. They are really into this foggy resiny-pithy fruity thing right now. Guava this time, the tartness is pretty real. Sammy's quote "I wouldn’t want every beer to have the salt flavour, but refreshing on a very hot today. " True.

The Strawberry Rhubarb Jelly King is definitely one of my favourite variants thus far. Light, refreshing, and some great strawberry flavour in there. Grabbed a couple extra bottles before the long weekend to share with out of towners and I'm glad I did.

I agree. My favourite. Strawberry works extremely will in beer if you ask me. It adds a nice sweet, yet tangy/sour character all on it's own. Beautiful.

Same goes with 5 Paddles Strawberry Wheat., which was gone when I went by on Monday. Dude said another batch is coming though.

Had some Barn Owl #8 at Witchstock yesterday and it was pretty good. When I asked about a release date I was told it would be released today. I imagine the White Picket Fence variants will also be released sometime as they were also bottle pours.

Edit: Well, it didn't show up so I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Kind of wish I went to Witchstock now. I had no idea breweries like Trillium and Other Half would be there. Beer lists weren't posted until like the day before. Maybe if I read into it I could have figured it out though, but I didn't pay attention I guess. I'll make sure to go next year now.

Anyhow I swung by yesterday and grabbed the new bottles as well as the cans of Jutsu and Witchshark. Kind of hope they starting canning a lot more stuff. I understand now that they still had PM Dawn by Trillium pouring... but as usual I was just in and out with my beer. Should have thought to ask. Woe is me.

They listed the breweries when tickets went on sale. Not the actual beers, but the breweries.

Yeah see I didn't pay enough attention.
