Bruery 2017 RS/HS Allocations

If I had to do a comparison, this is probably quite accurate.

 

I may have missed this (2016 was a busy year for me), but did they not release a 2016 Melange 3? I noticed 2017 in the upcoming releases in a recent email. That is one beer that I always stock up on.

 

Going by the list at the beginning of the 2016 thread, it doesn't look like it. I can't believe I didn't notice myself as I love that beer and stock up on it too.

 

I thought PB was decent. If I had to pick a bottle between PB, BT or GM, PB would easily be my last choice especially since I felt that the PB did not meld as well with the BT base as something like GM. It was about what I had expected when you mix BP with Peanut Butter, but I was not left with the opinion that it deserved its own Day of the Week. Even if you are an RS member and in the tasting room, sometimes it doesn't hurt to show interest in an HS draft exclusive and mention something like "O man I heard people say X about Y beer. It sounds pretty good." A small taste of it may come your way.

 

Idk if this is true but I heard most of the PB powder did not fully blend in the tank so they did not get the huge PB flavor intended. But maybe we should be glad.

 

Never thought to say it out-loud like that. good idea! I usually say it but only for my wife to hear.

 

I hope the picture they used was just using the ones from last year.....rather see new flavors get bottled rather than having blueberry & cherry again.

 

I think they released it in 2015, but not 2016.

 

I'd like to see a fruit frucht salad.

 

I've had two bottles of PB&T with one still left to go, and so far all I've noticed is it's way more effervescent than I expected, and I got almost no peanut butter even as bottles warmed up over the course of a football game.

Maybe #3 will be the magic bottle.

 

I can help you if you want to unload your final Bottle.

I believe in magic, so let's hope you are right!

 

To be fair, Frucht: Cherry was one of the best sours I've had all year. It has that bitter astringency that you can only get from biting into a fresh cherry. But, because it's not an exclusive beer it isn't on the hype train.

 

And it's a steal at 11.99 (pre-discount).

 

Was looking at the passport for reserve this year and noticed February has "Society Member Embroidery Month" that I'm curious about. Only thing a search brought up was from 2014, reference to maybe an anniversary ale event? Curious what its about.

 

you bring something in that you would like embroidered and it gets embroidered

 

Thinking about getting my car windshield, one of my buttcheeks, and maybe my 3-year-old embroidered this time around. Sounds like a good time.

 

Good job on embracing the concept.

 

I agree. Had my first one two nights ago and loved it. The blueberry is a close second though.

 

Personally, I have not very good luck in finding sours with a large variety of fruits. Flavors often come out muddy.

Would try it if they made one though! The Fruchts are some of my favorite Bruery beers.
