    Awesome news - I have fond memories of enjoying one of these like 8 years ago and I'd like to do it again.

    Can't wait for this beer again. Met one of my best friends at the very first ORF way back in 09. Can't wait to do it again!!!!!

    I guess they are no longer worried about Old Infected Rabbit Foot anymore? Is Duck Rabbit even brewing Rabid Duck still? I can't remember seeing that around in forever but then again, I quit looking for their beers after numerous infections and their lack of response.

    I joked with some friends that one way to get around the infection issues from Duck Rabbit is to have them brew their beer at Foothills for ORF, which is what's they're doing.

    So like 2 months? Is that standard procedure for orf? I've never had it.

    Do we actually know that they've bottled it? 3 months seems like a long time for a beer to wait around in a bottle before release. My assumption is that it'll be more like 5 months and get bottled early November.

    ETA: Just looked at an older ORF bottle that I have. No barrel aging length is listed on it.

    That's what I'm thinking. Share an old photo from the last release, but they'll do the actual bottling themselves last week of October/ early-November.

    Huh, would you look at that? It's fixed!

    FYI: If you need to change a thread title, hit report on the first post and in the comment say what you need it changed to and why. I've found it'll get handled by the friendly mods within a day or two. I only do this for stuff that really need to get changed (like... when the wrong year is in the title).
