Think this might be the first time that fudge has been bottled period. I'll have to try the Green Flash version.

Hey John I scored two cans of afterimage......I'll let you know how I think it stacks up.

How much distro did you get by you?

most places got 1 case max..and it was limited to 1-2 cans pp or 1 4pk pp..I got 2 cans(didn't go chasing it) and my girl and I each had one..we both liked it..nice citrus bomb..hoping Grimm cans it again..they have another IPA getting canned now and should be out next week?..keep an eye out for it

Pulse Wave: 8.5% ABV, Equinox bomb. Hazy yellow-orange, awesome lasting head and lacing. Less sweet than Afterimage, so it comes across as more bracingly hoppy as opposed to a capri sun juice box. We get tropical notes of pineapple, peach, and citrus up front and very light chive. The equinox brings really interesting "green" flavors -- i imagine this is what chlorophyll tastes like. Not really getting much of the "bell pepper" note equinox is known for, more candied fruit and greenness. It finishes with a lasting, clean bitterness that is soft but pronounced.

i'd also recommend their RIS...Double Negative, which should be out within the week as well...they have a Barrel Aged version, which is very good and will be out sometime this winter

Nice. Yeah distro looks like it was the same here.....spotty and places that did get it had the same deal.

Snagged a nightmare on brett yesterday from whole foods. $15/bottle, but I had last years and it was delicious.

I have loved everything Crooked Stave has done, just sad the subscription is gone.
