Blackstone Wet Hop IPA
« on: October 02, 2012, 10:56:56 PM »
Killer - each vat is wet-hopped with 30 pounds of fresh hops that are less than 24 hours removed from harvesting.  They have knocked it out of the park with this beer.  I would give it a 10 out of 10, and I am very picky when it comes to my IPA's...  It is that good....

Did they bottle this?  Or is just on tap?  I would like to try.  Sounds tasty!

It is just on tap, and in very limited supply, so you'd better hurry down.

Todd, thanks for the heads up!  Took my wife there for dinner last night and we both enjoyed one of these with our burgers.  Fresh Hop Ales are one of my favorite styles and they don't come around often.  I was glad to drink one while I could.  Over dinner I realized I should have brought my empty growler with  me to see if they would fill it.  Oh well, next time I go I'll remember to take the jug just in case.  Thanks again!
