Barrel Aged Abraxas Release 2014

Is this going to be on tap there this weekend?

 

I called Perennial today. They said they will be doing an announcement tomorrow on facebook, twitter, etc... about their plans for having BA Abraxas on tap for the release.

 

Anyone that was at the line share for BA Abraxas reservations, especially peeps at the front of the line, I will be coming down again this Saturday for the BA Abraxas release. Will Perennial allow another bottle share for the release this weekend? We will gladly bring down more Iowa goodies.

Also, if any of you remember hanging out with Vincent, hit me up so we can reminisce about the BA Abraxas reservation line share!

 

Anyone know when this will be on tap on Saturday?

 

I was told it'll be on tap at noon and likely won't last long. I'll be getting there early. Bringing a bottle of Sosus in case there's any share going on.

 

What would you expect 'not long' to be. I was planing on getting there around noon on Saturday, but if it wont last long after that I would be scared that I would miss it in a wait.

Anyone have an expectation as to what kind of, if any, wait times there will be?

 

Perennial hasn't said how much they will tap, so no idea if this is a 1/2bbl, 1/6bbl, one keg, two kegs, etc. Trying to predict anything is pretty much impossible. They try their best to take care of everyone so I'd say chances are probably good for getting some if you're there at noon, but don't be disappointed if you don't get any.

 

I was hoping they would tap some tonight.

 

Spoke with someone at the brewery last night and he said they had plenty for Saturday.

 

Goodie Goodie.

 

I'm just going by what the person said in the email. I didnt want to ask much else aside from time cause I'd assume theyre being bother enough already with everything.

 

They sold some BA Abraxas last night at Perennial. 2 bottle limit. Great way to reward locals.

This may deserve its own thread but... Side Project Saison du Fermier was also released. 4 bottle limit.

 

Yea, I have to say, perennial really seems to take care of the locals. With their multiple local options for reservations and the random releases. Seems like they are doing it right, despite me being sad i'm not local.

And are you sure about the 4 bottle Fermier limit? they tweeted that they would establish a limit tomorrow mornin.

 

When I was there around 6:45 the limit for BA Abraxas was one bottle per person. Cory was allowing people to buy upto 12 bottles of Fermier. $20 each.

 

Sorry about that. You are correct. I just assumed that was the limit because that was how many my friends bought.

 

I was not prepared to stand in line tomorrow

 

Welcome to craft beer. Please enjoy your stay.

 

I was perfectly happy picking up my one bottle of Abraxas at my leisure, now it is going to be a zoo

 

How were things today in comparison to the Coffee Abraxas release? Trying to figure out how early to get there.

 

ISO: Saison du Fermier. I live reasonably close to St. Louis (just over an hour away), but unfortunately due to work I won't be able to drive over there tomorrow. If anybody would be willing to pick me up a bottle, let me know what I could do to make it worth your while.
