The OFFICIAL Kuhnhenn Winter Solstice thread

I am well aware of that and I never made a claim that the new batch of KRE (375 ml) were sold, I said that I remeber hearing that the vintage 187ml bottles were sold in a small quantity. I just posted the link to last years thread where people said that they were able to buy bottles. Thats it, nothing more. Again, I never said that 375's of KRE were sold (and certainly nothing about KBE being available this year). Good grief.

 

And all I'm saying is that you heard incorrectly. End of conversation.

 

I really do not care one way or the other, just quote me correctly please. I brought up content that I remembered reading from last years event thread where people claimed they were sold 187ml bottles. It is what is, this can be the End of Conversation or whatever you feel like calling it.

 

Man, just remembering how good that BB Solar Eclipse was last year. Yum!

 

That beer was amazing...

 

No eisbock listed but you never know. Last year eisbock wasnt ready because it was too warm in Nov Dec. They actually use abmient outdoor temps to eis the bock and it wasnt cold enough.

 

It all sounds too good to miss. Let's hope the weather holds up to allow an overnight drive from MA on the 20th in time to hit KBrew first thing in the morning.

 

Anyone looking for a ride over from Chicago area? Just posted up, I have room going over and/or back.

Little blue bird told me one might show up on draught Friday.

 

Like at Summer Solstace.... nice....

 

Depends on where you have to be at noon. Assuming they run it like last time, the doors open at 11, you fill out your order, turn it in and skeedaddle. Come back after 1 and pick up your order.

 

Definitely not going to be able to make it out there...If anyone would be willing to hook up a trade for the Rye Barrel French Toast, I would be greatly appreciative! Just tried a previous year, and damn I need more of that!

 

I bought several bottles of BB4D the very next day on Sunday...they had most everything still

 

I 100% agree! That's why I'm glad I still have two bottle left... I may crack one this weekend

 

So, a question to people who have actually been to Winter Solstice before -- is there bottle sharing/beer drinking in the line? Like, when people start lining up at 7am (or earlier) Saturday morning, do people share bottles?

No, they do not allow bottle shares..

 

This is the one brewery I really wish I lived closer to...

 

I reaaaally wish I didn't have a family Christmas party that same day... only been to Kuhnhenn once so far, but it's almost sort of basically a religious experience. DRIPA, Raspberry Eisbock, and 4D (Preferred to BB4D... sorry) are absolutely ridiculous beers.

 

Like times eight bajillion/10. I don't go to Detroit without stopping there.
