    This cave is going to produce some A+ beers for sure.

    There's 50+ barrels in that picture. Let's say 50 to make the math easy.

    50 x 51gal x 128oz x 80% angels share / 12oz / 24 bottles/case = 900 cases

    Or 1300 12 bottle cases of 500ml bottles.

    I'd guess Thumbprint, but I've been wrong before.

    The barrel in the foreground with the air lock looks like it says "Enigma + Fruit(?)"

    We made a list a few weeks ago on the pros and cons of moving back to Wisconsin, number 2 on my list was easy access to NG beer.

    Rumor is that next year for the GTMW release, they're checking IDs and only selling to WI residents.

    The simple fact that you say "selling" means this is bunk. There are no "Sales" at the GTMW of beer products.

    Really? THAT was your clue that it wasn't true? Not the thought that they might actually impose a residency requirement on purchases, but that they don't sell beer at the Taste?

    FTR, I never said they were selling at GTMW, I said the GTMW release. It's a little know fact that NG releases beer on the weekend of the GTMW. Last year, they released one with blackberry in it. Perhaps you've heard of it?

    Then be clear and concise on what you're putting out there when you first put it out there. Then there wouldn't be these misunderstandings, semantic arguments, and follow up explanations.

    No jokes allowed. Beer is serious business and whatnot. Especially when were talking about a new new glarus fruit beer.

    I went there on Saturday and chatted with a few people. One of their managers was very optimistic with the future and said that the program is just getting rolling, with a lot more coming in the next few years. Can't wait, it's a good time to be a Wisconsinite!

    Hoping to see NG IIPA in the next few weeks as the latest Thumbprint release - last year's was one of the best dipa's in the country!

    Makes me almost wish I didn't move, but then I see the weather and I change my mind lol
    But it does make me want to dip into my stash off wild sour.
