Tree House Brewing Company (August 2017)

Assumers gonna assume

 

It's fun to speculate. Isn't this forum for that exact purpose? I don't think eureka dropping means something big is coming though. Seems that Nate likes to drop low abv beer for holiday weekends. If I recall didn't eureka drop for Fourth of July as well?

I do think it means that there may be 4 cans of beer available tomorrow

 

Friday on a holiday weekend. Feels like a core. Perhaps haze or dopple. Again who knows.

 

No wait at Tree House

And they announced pours in the middle of my sale!

Lights On
Eureka w/Galaxy on tap

 

Damn, almost 700 posts in this thread before the month end.

 

It did, and it was fantastic. 16 cans of a beer that the traders/sellers cried, whined, and bitched about. I was at all three releases that week on my beercation to MA, and to see people wait for 2+ hours, then leave without beer because this was released... absolutely incredible.

Such a good beer.

 

Because Eureka has typically released as the last canning run before the holiday.

Just speculation. Relax.

 

There's a fun little podcast called The 16oz. Canvas where the host interviews beer label artists. Episode 4 interviews Dean McKeever, the artist who does the Curiosity labels, Bear, SingleShot, King JJJuliusss, InPerpetuity - it's a good listen. Maybe doesn't directly answer your question, but worth checking out.

 

The say started at 14 cans pp for Thursday. WITHOUT Friday's offering it is now 15 pp. Man some people are going to be super happy Friday.

Also not sure what the bigger surprise is ... that Eureka only sold 510 out of 1200 cases or if Green lasted 3 days in a row.

 

Then they updated their website changing Sap and Green from 100 to 80 cases and Eureka from 692 to ~600. And then Sap moved down from 3 pp to 2 pp. Huh ...

 

I'm still seeing 10,2,2 on the on tap page, but 14pp plus a Friday run is going to either be an insane turnout or there's finally going to be a decent haul of cans on a Saturday. If I was a betting man I would say haze or doppelgänger tomorrow and the line is going to be bigger than the past 2 days.

 

Staff party for all their hard work?

 

Question - do the people who get there early sit in the lower lot until they open the upper lot and just drive up there? Or do they walk up to get in line right away? I have to get in and out as quickly as possible tomorrow but I don't want to be a dink or break protocol.

 

Remember those wacko theories about how Tree House making more beer was going to make it even harder to get?

 

Never thought I'd see the day Green doesn't sell out

 

Craft beer is fickle. It's impressive that Tree House has been driving the hype train as long as they have.

 

Starting to amp for my visit next month. Went to Monson roughly same time last year on a Wednesday and waited maybe 10 minutes for Haze and AE (I believe). Due to work and time constraints I'm really interested to see what the mid September lull brings. I have to work until noon in Burlington on a Friday and fly outta Boston on Saturday at 4:00. Trying to figure out if both HF and TH on Friday afternoon is possible or not. Would be awesome if cans were lasting until Saturday so that doesnt need to happen but we'll see.

 

Everyone has to remain in lower lot until they open upper lot. No one is allowed to walk up until upper lot is full. There will be a slow progression of everyone parking in top lot, filling the spaces as instructed.

I've seen people let their passenger out while waiting to park to beat the people in front of them and receive hell for it. If everyone just acts courteous it's a much nicer experience.

There's no way to know if you'll be out by 3, especially with the holiday and the large haul. They may open a bit early which would certainly help your cause.
