    It will be busier than normal, but you won't have any trouble. Ever since they moved out the brewing equipment their capacity hasn't been an issue, at least from what I have seen.

    I have gone the last few Wednesdays, around 7PM, and it's been busy but the wife and I had no problem finding a table. You'll be fine.

    All this sounds great. Thanks for the heads up on bottle shops. I know there other breweries I should be on the lookout for but I'm not sure I won't be stocking up on CS for the next few years.
    In NY we get the St. Brettas, A couple of the Vieille and Hop Savant.
    One year (2013) we got Batch 60 and Nightmare on Brett Leopold whiskey but then never again.
    Does Batch 100 taste like Batch 60? I'm hoping to find a bottle or ten of Batch 100.

    Batch 100 is gone as far as I know. There might be a few shops that have it. I have a few that I'm hanging onto, but if I run into any others I will PM you and we can work out a trade.

    FYI- Batch 100 is much less hop forward and more fruity than Batch 60. It's made with Centennial hops and kumquats and drinks more like a hoppy St. Bretta. Love both beers but thought you should know they're quite different.

    Very true. The last time I had Batch 100 a few weeks ago on tap it also was starting to taste a lot funkier and lot less bright and fruity like when it first came out. Not a bad thing, I happened to like it, but certainly different.

    Try Progenitor if you liked Batch 60. It's also a dry hopped golden sour.

    Hey guys, thought I'd give this thread a bump as I'm heading to Denver next Friday and was planning a stop into Crooked Stave prob on Sat. Anything I should look for? Have heard great things but being on the East Coast I've never had their beers.

    Haven't heard if they're releasing a new beer this week, but you will have plenty to choose from, from the current line up on tap. I'd recommend getting "tasters" of everything.

    I didn't see any there earlier this week, except the Grapefruit Radler. I saw on the board that guava or mango or something like that was going to be released imminently! :-)

    I was there a couple of weeks ago and they had what they advertised as "Taproom Only" version of Nightmare on Brett.

    We are releasing Petite Sour Pure Guava tomorrow 8/19. Should still be available when you arrive on Saturday. We have quite a few of our Petite Sour variants on draft.
