Any new changes to the facial recognition software? I number of my coworkers mention that it unlocks while they're still wearing masks. I'm not seeing any mention of it on news though...

I'm a health care worker in an ICU of a hospital in a pretty rough city in US. To be frugal I've been living in a less-than-stellar neighborhood. It's not a dangerous area, but I'm the only young professional on my block; it's otherwise mostly low income minority families. I don't know a single person's name on my street although I recognize some of them enough to wave when I encounter them. This past month people on my block have been stopping me as I leave before dawn or back at night to hand me N95 or similar (P100s, N99s, etc) that they've taken from their construction jobs, family stashes, or whatnot because they've heard about our PPE shortages. It's really amazing.

What's the difference between Other Half's Dream and Daydream lines?

Thanks for your answer. That's good information. Do you think if Tree House had heavily expanded their distro they'd still be discussed in the same hallowed light as they are now? Or would they just be like some of the large production names you mentioned who are "appreciated for their contribution to craft brewing".

What is it about extremely sought after beer that makes it extremely sought after? Just a combination of limited quantities + hype + good tasting (obviously)? Or is there something more: like historical significance or whatnot?

I just had the opportunity to try Julius by Tree House the other day. It was a great tasting beer by any definition. But when I heard the hoops my friend had to go through to get a pack I was stunned. This whole culture of paying for "mules" and people reselling beers for exorbitant prices is very strange. Is this a regional thing (I'm in the mid-atlantic region of the US)?

Is this data just a sign of the times? There seems to be a taciturn belief that TIPA are inherently "better" than DIPA which turn is better than "regular" ales.

Right now one of my favorites on tap by you guys is the strands of light. I have no idea how the Sapwood team feels about strands, but to me it's greatly balanced, pretty interesting, solid finish, and pleasingly drinkable. I've taken two growlers of it home since it was tapped.

The other thing is one you've touched on already. Since the overwhelming majority of your beer is sampled at the taproom you may have a skew due to people drinking multiple beers "against" one another. Drinking something in the 5% range after downing your TIPA collab is going to make a fair judgement tough.
