Last week I bought a four pack (16 oz cans) of a Fiden's pale ale. $26. I haven't tried it yet.

I also bought a six pack (16 oz cans) of a Stone Hazy DIPA, on sale at Giant for $10. They can call it a hazy, and it may have been brewed in Richmond, but it still looks and tastes like a WCDIPA.

Wonder which one will win the Space Quality/Price ratio derby?

Drake’s has acquired Bear Republic.  Huge news out here.  Or maybe it isn’t.

How is that going to go over with the heavy MAGA presence?

Seems like it will be mostly men in drag

We Asked 15 Brewers: What Is Your Favorite Hop?

usual suspects are there (citra, simcoe, etc.) but a few new ones too... including nectaron, a hop from new zealand that is the most expensive hop on the market - when it's even available on the market.  i've been trying to get some for at least 2 years now, but whenever it is made available to homebrewers it's A) twice as expensive as the next-most expensive hop, and B) it'll sell out faster than a springsteen show.  a local brewery called Black Raven has released a seasonal featuring nectaron and it's freaking delicious.  been mainlining the stuff for 2 weeks now.  move over citra, nectaron is the future.

Astrolab has a new brew called Nectaron. It is delightful.
