    In an effort to get our most sought after beers into as many hands as we can, we are happy to announce there will be beer available to purchase the following day after Fury.

    We set allocations based on the lowest amount of bottles available of the individual variants. This time it is Vanilla Bean Night Fury. We set ticket sales to allow for all ticketed members to have the ability to get the maximum allocation of all the variants. Our continued efforts to produce as many as we can for these events has given us the ability to reward those that may not be members but travel great lengths to enjoy our beer as well.

    Even with more available, we still are continuing to evolve the ticket system to take care of our local more regular customers first, but have always wanted to provide a way for even more people to get the bottles they desire. All guests on Sunday will be able to purchase up to the same allocation as the members the day before, on a first come basis, while supplies last. Meaning when we open at Noon, Sunday the 27th, any member that wants to purchase a second allocation or people that did not get tickets are welcome to purchase bottles with or without a membership.

    Bottle counts in excess of the allotments for the ticketed release (there may be more bottles if some people do not come in to purchase their allotment on 8/26/17)
    At a minimum, this is what will be available to the public on Sunday, August 27th starting at NOON
    Traxxx- 428 bottles (107-- 4 packs)
    Vanilla Bean – Zero
    Double Barrel- 149 bottles
    Rye Whiskey- 115 bottles
    Boysenberry Ghost Pepper – 97 bottles
    Orange Truffle- 101 bottles
    Cookies 'n Cream- 42 bottles

    Allocations will be the same as the day before, per person, while supplies last:

    Traxxx, up to 4 bottles
    Vanilla Bean, limit 1
    Double Barrel, limit 1
    Rye Whiskey, limit 1
    Boysenberry Ghost Pepper, limit 1
    Orange Truffle, limit 1
    Cookies 'n Cream, limit 1

    We hope this will maintain our stance of Members First but remove the stigma of Members Only.

    Cheers and thanks for your continued support!

    Give all the members that already purchased a release ticket a 6 pack of Traxx instead of a 4 pack on Saturday, so we don't have to come back the next day and fight with the peasants for the leftovers.

    Well, he is "the_king" so I'm okay with it.

    What's the price of the bottles? Someone mentioned $9. Is that correct?

    That could be. I am awefully bad at detecting dry sarcasm through online posts. Maybe that's why I try to use emoji's when I try to be sarcastic in here - because rereading my own messages before posting...I can't tell that I am being sarcastic. Ha.

    Interesting that after reminding people that they need to join the mug club before tickets go on sale they are now going to be available to the public...

    If it was me I probably wouldn't have made that announcement, and just put the extra bottles up for sale.

    You can always crash at my house. You might wake up hungover to a 5 year old jumping on you and a dog licking your face but you get used to it after a while.

    I feel like double barrel was the best of the night but was pleasantly surprised by the Boysenberry Ghostpepper.

    Anyone else grab a 4-pack of This Guy and find it to be very underwhelming? I've had it plenty of times and its always been my fave NE IPA in MI but this is like a completely different beer.

    This Guy seems to never be consistent in flavor. Sometimes it's phenomenal and other times it's alright. What I've learned is it changes from batch to batch and makes difference whether it's bottled from beginning of keg or end of keg. You probably had yours bottled at bottom of the keg.

    This was my 4th year going, and I always go right at open, and it seems like the line to get in gets longer and longer every year.

    Had a great time. Always a great event.
