Bruery 2016 RS/HS Allocations

5GR and BA 5GR are up on the site, but not live yet. I see a trend here.

 

As a current PS member and soon to be RS member, I had no problems pulling down 10 bottles of BT between my previous allocations plus the 4 that went on sale yesterday. So, I can't see how anyone can complain about 10 bottles vs. 14 bottles. Plus, the way I see it, if you haven't put in the time up until now, you're way to late to start a 12 days vertical anyway.

Looks like Preservation Society is getting access to 5 Golden Rings today, so that should quell some of the complaints.

 

Yes, along with 90-95% of the other beers offered to RS, albeit in limited quantities.

 

Just 5 rings? I was expecting PB & Thursday...

Actually, I really really want PB & Thursday.

 

Per the email, BA 5 Golden Rings as well.

 

You must be PS with that attitude.

 

When I heard that they were retiring Humulus Lager I went over and got 2 growler fills - both ended up tasting really "off" (oxidized) and I had to drain pour them. I didn't have the growlers more than a week and was really disappointed since I usually love that beer. Did anyone notice that the last batch just wasn't very good (if not, I guess it was an issue with my growlers, which I've never experienced before)? Fortunately, the Mash and Coconut growler was fantastic - can't wait to try Mash and French Toast.

48:1? Deal.

 

how long did you have them? more than a day or two might start causing problems.

 

Has anyone has opened BT '10 this year? Looking to trade for one, wondering if it's tasting fantastic after 6 years or is it too old.

 

I had one last year and it was everything I ever wanted it to be.

 

Very cool. When I had the mini flight '12-'16 a month ago, the '12 was spectacular.

Thank you

 

I tried '09-'15 last year and all were fine. Honestly the '09 tasted super good and like it could even age for 5 more years. I'd only be worried about bottling quality for those early Bruery beers, not the aging potential of the beer. That beer is a hell of a beer to age. Think you're safe with the '10.

 

I had them for about a week - I've sat on growlers for months before and never had any issues (those weren't hoppy beers, since I found that the hops fade after a couple/few weeks, but I would have expected them to hold up for a lot longer than a week), so I don't think that was it. Possibly something with the rubber seal, since they tasted like some oxygen got to them. Either that or the "retirement" batch wasn't good.

 

Tweet says adding two beers to the gaggle of bottles already released. I like what they did there.

 

Can anyone give me a leads or info on the Cheers! glass from the bruery. Had a member who had a stroke recently and it was one of his constant ISO. Like to find it for him. Any help will be much appreciated!
