Ghost will begin distribution in May, and be available through September. Right now, bloom and strawberry canebrakw are in the rotation.



It would be nice to get Ghost back. I'm sure the homers will give me shite about this, but i found Nova and Bloom to be shells of their former selves. Nova wasn't good, IMO. I poured the last 4 i had down the sink. Bloom is in danger of the same fate. I keep hoping that maybe it tastes off because it's too new. But each bottle tastes the same. I find them to be either overcarbed, or the water profile is to mineral-ey or something. I can't put my finger on it, but the hops taste restrained as if something is getting in the way.

I just hope Ghost doesn't have the same issues. I won't be buying 2 - 4 packs when it comes out. I'll start off with 1 and go from there.

I don't get this. You have to have some friends that like beer, trying beer, but are not that adept at distinguishing subtleties.

For example, if I lived in BR, I would be your friend.

So after you pour out your Bloom, that'll be $32 worth of beer just thrown down the sink?

I agree with this 100%. I thought the later batch of Nova was better than the first. Bloom is really good but just not as good as previous batches. Looking forward to summer of Ghost. Hope not to be disappointed.
