So I’m all pumped to get some of that Grace and Grit action, get there, and they have NONE. Nothing in cans, nothing on tap to fill a growler, nothing. FML


Got oceans between us - meh

They don’t always have it. Should have checked.

Get Rhinestone Life if you want some hops.

It’s all gone. Not in stores either.

Oceans Between Us, to me is one of the best beers in LA.

It’s a perfect execution of what they were trying to do. An alive DDH Belgian IPA. At the price it’s pound for pound the second best beer in LA that you can get regularly besides Ghost.

But I’m sure a bunch of beer nerds will downvote me because it’s not muh juice.

I’ve always found their IPAs on malty side. Not a huge fan of commotion or grace and grit. It’s a personal preference.

7 bucks a bottle no brainer. El Dirado is pretty perfect but I’m excited for what they do next hop wise.

Had some El Dorado Oceans from March and it was my favorite version I've had of it. Sucks about the Grace and Grit but that's just luck of the draw. Just not around all the time.

I am Not a huge Grace and Grit fan.

but I am Not a huge fan of maltier IPAs if that makes sense.

I can say I haven't had the previous releases of Grace and Grit but the past ones have not impressed me. So part of the reason (besides they sell out) is I have not been interested in finding them.

They've been malty, but from what I've read/heard they've changed. I would hope so

Agreed. The sour/funky beer is the best stuff they do IMO.

Mine was over carbonated. Opened the bottle and nonstop fizzzzzzz.

I did get some at arms length, excited to try that.

I was a little shocked by the previous Oceans Between Us (Cascade on Blood Oranges) as I’m not used to a 100% Brett beer, it almost tasted more chemically to me than funky. Haven’t picked up the El Dorado variant yet.

Finally found You, Me, and Everyone We Know at a random Rouses and it was everything I hoped for.
