Have a nice weekend y'all. Decisions, decisions

It's been a minute. Glad to see this thread is still going.

It’s been a minute. Hi again everybody.

@dyzzle Yeah, Monkish is not the best brewery to "try different styles". They brew hazy IPA's and the occasional stout/wild ale/saison. Their hazy IPA's are some of the best in the country so I'm not to not go there, but check out Smog City around the corner for a better VARIETY of beers. I'm...

Worth the hype? I guess. Like I said, I'm a bit older than some of you. Chasing beer is not really my style anymore. I don't even stand in Monkish lines anymore unless they post that there is zero line and I'm on my home from work. If a liquor store between home and work got Alchemist in...

The Alchemist hitting CA was legit. 7 day old cans. They are looking to do this 2-3 times a year if they can. Some places were charging $24 for a mixed 4 pack. Less than a Monkish 4 pack. It hit quite a few places here in SoCal, but I'm too old for the chase. @wallyhopp I haven't cracked it...

I had a good beer weekend.

That Bluet from Smog was crazy good. Haven't had this years batch, but I did have the "sneak peak" at last year's anniversary. Windy Hill from Mikkeller is really good for a shelfie hazy IPA. Glad you are having a good time.

There is usually a line for growlers at opening of 30-40 people. Go about 1:30-1:45 and the line will have died down.

So here's a listing of stuff you should hit up while in town (this is from a BA thread): Torrance: Smog City, Monkish Downtown: Modern Times, Mikkeller, Mumford, Highland Park ( Chinatown ) Long Beach: Beechwood, Smog City Steelcraft LAX: ESBC, Firestone Venice Anaheim: The Bruery, Bottle Logic...

Monkish cans sell out in under 2 hours usually. A large batch or double release could last about 3 hours. Smog City is literally around the corner Monkish. Monkish for the haze, Smog for everything else. West Hollywood to Torrance is all 405. It’s going to suck. I’ll give more info tomorrow.

Couldn’t do it. Still stings. My last can was before game 1 of the WS.

Monkish doesn't sell beer online. Can releases are announced about an hour and half before they open. Random days. No set schedule. In the first 20 or so releases, in 2016, they were almost always on Saturdays. In the last year (almost 80 releases) there has been 6 on a saturday. I'm not...

Haven't been in here in a while and the first post I see is someone saying Pliney isn't impressive? I mean, I know it doesn't look like orange juice, but it's world class. Happy drinking folks. It's been a pleasure talking and trading with y'all. If anyone wants Monkish growlers, check their...

Over the weekend. Excellent. Wouldn't expect anything less from a Stasis Project beer.

Had this the other night when the NLDS started. I'll have another when the NLCS starts. And my 3rd can? >D We'll see. I haven't fully decided if I want to try it, but I was thinking of throwing it out to you guys. Anybody in here looking for Monkish growlers? Maybe set up trades for...

If you have any Total Wines or Bevmos near you, you can go to their website and search local stores. You can create your own six packs at TW so you could try a variety and see which ones you like.

Might as well post what I've drank the last couple of days on the new site.. Monkish Soul Foudre Biere de Garde with cherries Monkish Funk Juggling Blend #3 Farmhouse Ale Bottle Logic BA DIPA - Konami Code Series - Amarillo, Mosaic, Simcoe, Citra and El Dorado This new site is weird. Or...

Honestly? Just go to the forums on Beer Advocate. There are a TON of threads on LA/OC bottles shops in the Pacific forum. Good luck on the room temp thing. You'll need to hit up a Total Wine or Bevmo. If a place has shelf and cooler space, the good stuff usually goes in the cooler and the...

Got my 3 bottles. Had my phone and my wife's phone going. Had 3 in her cart and I messed up and only clicked 2 in mine. Went with hers. All while sitting at brunch. Also got a glass. Didn't even try for Number Crunch after I had just dropped $75 on 3 bottles of beer.
