Henry Hops is a modern IPA, and Say Hey Sally is a Pilsner. I love that they&#8217;re baseball names too, that&#8217;s great, and I can&#8217;t wait to get out to Citi Field to try them, maybe take a can home. This is so far the closest we&#8217;ve gotten to a Mets player themed beer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Judging by Untappd check-ins, there are a few others as well. AB-InBev has been spreading around their craft portfolio a little more, as I&#8217;ve started to see more of breweries like 10 Barrel in NY\/NJ. I&#8217;ve seen check-ins for Elysian&#8217;s Space Dust, and Immortal at Citi Field over the first two games.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Also exciting to notice is Long Island City Beer Project&#8217;s Dutch Kills, a Kolsch. Southern Tier&#8217;s Nu Skool IPA, and Sierra Nevada&#8217;s Sidecare Orange Pale. Those all sound fun.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There are some old favorites back, and I&#8217;m sure there are a few that I haven&#8217;t seen checked-in yet. Hopefully I&#8217;ll get out there to check them out.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Alas, I haven&#8217;t seen a dark beer check-in yet.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An initial look at new beers at Citi Field, including some specially designed for the park. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[2961,19,351,528,15,3],"tags":[2981,1767,1747,1909,1766,2997,2998],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2928"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2928"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2928\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2931,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2928\/revisions\/2931"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2928"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2928"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2928"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
