I drank a fair amount of World Gone Hazy IPA this past weekend in New York, and it was good.

Walked by the other day and was excited to see a permit in the window. It's been very quiet since Half Acre moved out and I was worried that the deal fell through.

My parents are driving to Denver and my dad has requested a list of beer that he can bring with him - other than the obvious (ZOMBIE DUST) what is available right now that I should request? All styles welcome.

All styles welcome. When is the last time you had Zombie Dust? They started distributing here and I was so excited, but the sixer I picked up was just fine, not amazing like I remember. Could’ve been a bad/old batch I suppose. Probably also hard to stand out give the wide availability of truly excellent beers these days.

All styles welcome. Assuming Chicagoland I will say Marz, Pollyanna, and half acre are my favorites right now. Styles may very but hey- they have them all!

We randomly get Half Acre and Off Color out here already - I'm assuming it's through the Crooked Stave distribution system. Those are the only two Chicago brands we regularly have in Denver. Marz is a good call, although I have no idea if my dad would be able to get that in the burbs.

Old Irving Brewing has a seasonal Maibock, Goat Destroyer, that is super tasty. Should be available at Binny’s or some other craft store. Not sure if the Cub’s theme would turn you off, though.
I’m a big fan of Alarmist’s Le Jus (hazy IPA) as well.

scoots I’m almost positive I’ve seen Marz in the burbs as far back as three to four years ago.

He lives right next to the Binny's in Bloomingdale, so I'm sure they'll have it if that's the case.
I should also probably ask for stuff like Allagash and Great Lakes - neither of which are available out here. We don't get too many Michigan beers, either.

scoots- Do you get Vallejo from Half Acre? If not, I would ask for that.
- Anything from Maplewood.
- If the Binny's in Bloomingdale has anything from Hop Butcher, (1) 4-pack is more than enough as they're a bit pricey.
- Anything from Phase Three Brewing

Agree about Vallejo and Maplewood.

I found 4 packs of Sip of Sunshine (Lawson's Finest Liquids - probably one of my favorites) and Focal Banger yesterday along with bottles of Pliny and Blind Pig. It's "rare" IPA weekend at the scoots household!

Went to Half Acre’s Only Gold party where they ran out of hot dogs at a hog dog event.

I had to quit drinking for my surgery back in December and have only had a little bit here and there, but mostly I'm just a Tank 7 guy from now on. No more sours, too much sugar, and imperial stouts are too heavy. But I'm not too sad bc Tank 7 is amazing.

I always forget how high the ABV is on Tank 7.

I always forget how high the ABV is on Tank 7. They've got it in 12 oz cans for awhile which is perfect.

The local indie theater in town has Tank 7 on tap pretty often. You can get a pint(!) for 6.50(!).
