    @DigitalNate has been known to make occasional comments when speculation is not correct on this monthly thread.


    Cans:

    This week's canning schedule, not guaranteed:

    + Tuesday

    + Wednesday

    + Thursday

    + Friday

    We are packaging into cans on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday this week. Cans become available the day they are packaged, with the exception of the Tuesday canning run, which is available on Wednesday when we are open. Thanks!


    Pints:

    As we settle into our new brewery, the availability of pints will be sporadic and dependent on the crowd. If we are too busy it is not possible to maintain an enjoyable and efficient experience for takeaway beer and serve pints at the same time. Stay tuned to Twitter to learn if and when pours are available.


    Growlers:

    While we transition to the new brewery, growler fills are temporary on hold. Fear not - they will be back. They are a huge part of what makes us Tree House.

    New Glass 750 ML - $5 | 2L - $6


    Parking:

    Parking lots open an hour before stated open times.

    REGARDING PARKING ON VERY BUSY DAYS, PLEASE HEED THE GUIDANCE OF OUR PARKING STAFF. ALSO, USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN ENTERING AND EXITING THE PROPERTY. THANK YOU!


    Line:

    There is just one line, the can line! You may order growlers from the can line, when they become available at the new brewery. Our staff will assist you by handing out and collecting order cards for growlers while you wait for cans.

    We make every effort to keep limits the same, and this is indeed the case 95% of the time. On rare occasions when we believe it will be beneficial to visitors, we will lower limits to spread the love around a bit.

    ALL LIMITS POSTED ARE PER PERSON, PER DAY. NO SECOND TRIPS THROUGH THE LINE.

    ALL WHO PURCHASE BEER AT TREE HOUSE MUST PRESENT A VALID AND CURRENT PHOTO ID, NO EXCEPTIONS.


    BYOB:

    The beer you purchase at Tree House can be enjoyed at Westview Creamery on East Hill Road, and at BT's Smokehouse in Sturbridge.


    Nearby Bottle Shop:

    Yankee Spirits in Sturbridge, is the closest. It's close to BT's Smokehouse.

    Can I get Trillium there?

    Wednesday morning is usually the better day to get Trillium from us during the week. We're usually sold out by mid-afternoon Wednesday, so usually no luck on Trillium for Thursdays. We don't get our weekly delivery until Friday evening or Saturday morning. Sturbridge - @yankeestur


    Historical information on can/bottle releases:

    Awesome Tree House can release spreadsheet done by @BeerTraveler33.

    In his own words:

    Feel free to remind me, @BeerTraveler33, to update this as I usually only update the file on my work PC and I forget to update the google doc.

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zWyBt7I2feobTsX5GcZvm91pn3fxuxEu-cI8oodXBi8/edit?usp=sharing

    This is the spreadsheet that you seen cropped, cut, and pasted on posts. Full credit should be given to @BeerTraveler33 for creating and maintaining it.


    Dogs / Kids:

    Children, dogs and families are always welcome at Tree House


    Misc:

    The new brewery has been opened less than a month. They are going thru growing pains. Please be patient and understanding. Next month, I hope to add a newbie guide to this first post. Feel free to post suggestions for it by starting your post with "FP suggestion". This will make it easier for me to search the thread. Thanks.

    Here's to hoping we don't see the usual complaint of "What you finally do case limits and its on Insert Beer Name Here? But I took the day off".

    Ok that's probably an unrealistic hope

    Quoted from last months thread that is now locked.
    "Sorry to be this guy, but I haven't been to Charlton yet...if got there on Wednesday an hour early, and try to get a good spot in line...what might the wait time be? I know it depends on a lot of things, but just curious what it's been like right at open. Is it just a mad dash at 12 when they open, and getting there an hour early won't matter?

    Long story short, I need to be out of there by 12:30, or I can't go. "

    The upper lot is opened one hour before the brewery opens. If you get there before then you will be lined up in the lower lot and will drive in according to the order you arrived. I was there last Thursday and got there about two hours early to trade in the parking lot. I was probably car 15 at that point. If you get there one hour early you will likely be 50-200 cars deep (depending on beers released). Once the brewery opens the line moves quick but I don't think it is a given that you would be out of there by 12:30.

    Awesome! Thanks for the great info. Didn't think you could get in at all before 1 hour before they open...I could go earlier but didn't think it was an option.

    They would prefer that you don't so that they don't need the 3-4 workers in the parking lot a few hours early but there were hundreds there before open. I was on a beer trip and that day started at Tree House. Like you it was my goal to get out as soon as possible so I could go on to other things, the earlier I got in the earlier I would be done.

    Yeah, I know they don't want people there early, and I don't wanna go against their wishes...but I don't have the time otherwise. I think my fiancé just might go for me on Thursday, but I wanted to go n see this place. Bummed that I won't see it anytime soon, but happy to get the beer. Thanks again for the info.

    damn cars are lining up? they might as well make a drive thru window :rofl:

    seriously tho, it would help get the people who just want cans to not crowd up the taps or the parking lots for people who want to chill with a few pints.
    it works for westvleteren

    What a dolt. That being said, if he's so hellbent he should bring his own red sippy cups, scurry off in a corner and do his thing.

    Not so sure about that. There is a Facebook group where all they do is mix beers and they love mixing Tree House beers. I'm not in that group, but saw a video of one post last week. They took 6 different TH beers and poured them into a pitcher. :weary:

    Sometimes I feel like we're in some sort of weird beer reality TV world with these asks/happenings. "The Real Neckbeards of Tree House," now on MTV2.

    I'm puzzled as to why Tree House responded to that stupid question. "I know you put your heart and soul into every beer, but I'd like to destroy that and create my own."

    Have you seen their Twitter feed?!? Most underappreciated job in beer could be the social media team at Treehouse.

    I have. I'd like to answer the questions for them, but I don't think anyone would appreciate that.
