Are you annoyed that you've no beers for the weekend, and you've spent your beer money online rather than in a local offy? Do you want Whiplash to add a large red disclaimer at the start of the page so you can't miss it? What's the goal here?

adrian522 wrote: » I pointed bout my issue in a single post then I've been responding to individual response Essentially I don't understand why an order made on Wednesday afternoon cam.be delivered on Thursday morning at 7.45 am yet an order made on Thursday afternoon can't be delivered until Tuesday. I struggle with that logic. But anyway I've made my point and received my answer at this point.

Pen Rua wrote: » Gotcha. "Taproom" would have me think the beer is brewed onsite, but eh. I'll see if we can get a table when we visit as outdoor dining should be back for then.

Looking at them on Untappd seems like they are all similar eggy looking NEIPAs. Basically like what Fuerst Wiacek released in Ireland a few months back, they were nice but all samey. Must be a German craft brewer thing that this is the only style the export
