Bruery 2016 RS/HS Allocations

It's a good thing I don't need 19 bottles of MW in my life too. How is it that I can get that much MW but only a case of BT?

 

Because 19 includes second chance sales due to enough members not taking their full allotments?

 

Absolutely amazing!

 

Just opened my first and only bottle of Ukulele. Talk about Roble Blanco 2.0, this beer was way too thick and syrupy to pull off what it was trying to accomplish. If they had started with their sour blonde but aged in bourbon barrels, as opposed to what tastes like soured barrels of white oak sap, it might have worked. Always sad to drain pour a Bruery beer (and only the fourth in seven years of buying Bruery bottles).

 

I'm still sitting on Port, have not tried it yet. A lot of you guys are putting it as the top variant well then maybe I should be happy. I just remembered Rum that I did try as being absolutely outstanding.

 

I LOVED Port BT, but I also LOVED Port and Madeira Sucre. I'm sitting on a bottle of Rum BT, and I'm planning on opening it when I come down in May for the anniversary party.

 

Another question for you local cats, when it says RS16 next to a beer on the taplist, what's that? A different growler they sell?

 

I asked this the other day at the taproom. They said tou have to use this years growler to fill those

 

Ok I guess they mean RS "2016" vs the other growler labeled RS32(oz) Kind of confusing and coincidental 16 is half of 32... I digress. Should I be surprised when then only fill my growler halfway lol?

 

I personally liked Rum>Madeira>Port on the BT releases. In Fact Rum was far anf above my favorite of the 3. For what its worth.

 

They just released the labels for White Mocha. Bourbon Barrel Aged Wheatwine Style Ale with Cacao Nibs and Coffee. 16.3% ABV

 

Sounds like coffee white chocolate. Curious that Vanilla isn't listed

 

Where do you find that?

Maybe this? I googled it and that's what came up.

 

As I went looking for that label I stumbled across Oude Tart with Cherries for 2016 and Quadrupel Tonnellerie.

 

Interesting that the Quadrupel Tonnellerie (Barrel Fermented Belgian-Style Quad) is through the Terreux line.

 

Don't all of the Tonnellerie series beers have Brett? That's most likely why.

I just looked at the label and I don't know anything about this coffee spot. Anyone heard of them before? It seems like they are switching up the coffee now as they went from Portolla to Coldbot to this now.

 

They use Coldbot coffee in Mash & Grind. So, if that's anything to go by it gets my stamp of approval.
