Troegs Splinter Gold 2013

Anyone wanna do me a favor?

 

Anyone know how many they are releasing?

 

Eek! Will it last until tomorrow?

 

Anyone driving out from the Lehigh valley want a guy to ride shotgun? Lol

 

1 bottle limit btw, I called.

 

Any idea of bottle count? And did troegs not make an announcement? Been checking the website every week and never saw anything

 

Damn. I guess I might be driving to Hershey tomorrow. Good thing it only takes me about 35 mins to get there.

 

As far as I can tell, there was no announcement made. I was at the brewery an hour ago and they had 15 cases (best guess). We walked up and got our bottles with no wait.

 

Are they only for sale to go from the store or can you still get them tonight from the brewery?

 

I think if you buy it in the tasting room you have to consume it on site. To get a bottle to go you have to buy it at their store.

 

Just wanted to make sure before I drove up there and phone calls lead nowhere. Thanks.

When store closed at 8:00 there were plenty of bottles yet. Seemed like word hadn't spread yet, so I assume tomorrow will be a treat. There were 15 ish cases on the floor behind the counter. Didn't ask if there were more or how many were slotted for on site consumption. Not that I would know have first hand evidence, but one bottle limit per person was being enforced.

 

Also, not clear from my picture, but bottles have a different hang tag than original batch and side of label specifies "Bottled March 2013"

 

For the on-premise consumption - do you buy a whole bottle at the tasting room or do they have it on tap?

 

I'm told 1400 bottles available for sale. You can buy one to drink on site and buy one to go. Max bottles out the door is 1 bottle per person per day.

 

Not on tap 750ml bottles only. I believe they uncork it and give you the bottle in the tasting room. The to go bottles are sold out of the gift shop and are room temp.

 

It is 1400 bottles total split between the Tasting Room and General Store.
I doubt they sell more than 700-800 to go, the rest will be for on site consumption in the tasting room.

 

Damn, to make the 1.5 hour drive or not today. I wonder if it'll blow up or if it won't be madness, plus when they'll run out.

 

I was there around 2:30, split a bottle on premises with my gf and bought one to go. All of the togo bottles are probably gone by now, they were down to the last couple of cases when I left. My god, it's amazing.

 

Bottles to go are sold out as of about 5:45 PM. Bottles still available for on-site consumption
