    That is a thread featuring the first of 3 posts, not one of three beers I'd imagine.

    The Instagram version says it's going on webshop with two beers - not sure why the Twitter version doesn't have the same wording.

    Usually share the Twitter post as it auto-expands on Boards where as Instagram doesn't.

    Wasn’t the whole Curious Society thing meant to be a few cheap simple beers in multi packs? They’ve near a bigger range than their main brand now.

    I prefer the CS stuff than the Larkins anyway. The latter could really do with an artwork revamp too.

    Wrecks my head. A NEIPA is about as similar to an IPA as a red ale is to a stout.
    They need completely different names.

    Look, you've gotten me going again!

    Ah I knew it was one of ye. It's a valid argument to be fair, just doesn't bother me so much as long as I like whatever is in the can

    There were a couple left still in the fridge in Matsons in Grange earlier this afternoon, might be worth asking if you can't see them because there was only room for a small few in the spot they were in the fridge.

    €10 though, saucy enough!

    Would you know if O'Briens are stocking it? No car for a week and weather will limit my beer radius

    Tried all the new Whiplash non NEIPA beers this evening. Fruits Salad(Sour), Let it Bleed(Fruited Witbier), Alma(Witbier), Covered in Dust(West Coast IPA). All very nice except the fruited witbier which wasn't my style, that Belgian yeast doesn't play nice with all that raw orange imo. The West Coast IPA was my favourite, quite sweet but with nice bitterness in the aftertaste. The sour was decent but passion pool has kind of ruined a lot of sours for me with how good it is. Anyway it's great to see Whiplash put out good beers other than NEIPA and strong stout/porter. Would like to see them take on more variations of West Coast IPA and sours

    Any idea why Whiplash don't ship on Fridays? Ordered on Thursday but still no sign of it being shipped. Might stick with craft central in future.
    If your order is placed before midday, Monday to Thursday, it will be dispatched the same day. Orders made after midday on Thursday are shipped the following Monday.

    Saves the beer sitting in a courier warehouse all weekend, and it's in our chilled storage instead! The 12 cutoff is as late as we can leave it to make sure we can dispatch same day,although if we can we'll get as many orders through as possible, even past the 12 mark.

    Surely it can be sent at some point on Friday though?

    If I'd known order on Thursday would not be delivered until Tuesday at the earliest I'd have ordered from somewhere else.

    It's all to do with the quality of the beer, as Twee said above. Considering that most Whiplash beers atm are heavily hopped or fruited, you need those to say in cold storage until they reach your glass. If they're sent out on Friday, they'll sit in a box, in a random warehouse, possibly in direct sunlight for 48+ hours since UPS don't normally deliver on a weekend.
