RS&HS-only:
6 & 7. Black & Blue BBLs*
8 & 9. PB & Thursday with Jelly*

 

Most of the names make it obvious they are Hoarder only, but I'd say it's unclear whether Sunday Sundae and BT Reserve will be available for sale to RS.

 

Very true. I am labeling them as HS-only mostly based on history of similar releases. BTR was HS-only initially and never trickled down to RS. PB&Thursday was HS-only when it was released.

 

Based on previous years HS got 4 exclusives and neither Sundae or Reserve state HS exclusive like the wine beers, I bet they are both RS.

 

I would bet BT Reserve trickles down to RS, in the past the first release of a day of week would be HS and on the second release become RS, but this is all speculation.

 

For these:

RS&HS-only:
6 & 7. Black & Blue BBLs*
8 & 9. PB & Thursday with Jelly*

Is the renewal email for RS out? That is, the * means:

"*exclusive releases that are only available as included bottles"

So RS would most likely need to have these show as included bottles to be available and not be HS-only.

 

I'm not sure what you're trying to say but this is what it says on the RS page.

Two bottles of the following:
6 & 7. Black & Blue BBLs*
8 & 9. PB & Thursday with Jelly*

*exclusive releases that are only available as included bottles

 

Likely all (or the majority) HS will max BTR , anytime is available. Thus, less likely it would be available to RS.

 

Maybe I should clarify, trickle down wasn't the best term. I bet there are RS allocations. There have been for every day of the week beer on the second run.

 

Given that this is the second run of BT Reserve, I think RS will probably get a shot. Not sure about Sundae Sunday since it's new.

If we could get an official answer on that, it would be great.

 

This should be the HS plan. Max to the max, and keep maxing, so there's less to go around.

 

Thanks for the info, I couldn't find the RS details page so didn't know they have it listed as well (my copy/paste was from HS details). So it looks like both HS and RS get two bottles of each? That's a bit odd...

 

Not really that odd.

My reading is RS will only get the "exclusive releases that are only available as included bottles", where HS will have the option of buying more.

In other words RS allocation: 0; HS allocation :?

 

The HS listing says only bottles will be the included two as well.

 

As mentioned above, yep - question mark = 0 as it says they are only included with membership just like RS.

 

Ah, well that is odd.

 

Here's hoping at least 1 bottle of Black Tuesday Reserve is available for RS. That's not asking too much is it?

 

It's good if you want drink The Bruery's take on an Imperial Bud Light Lime-A-Rita. However, if I want to drink something that tastes like a margarita and subsequently regret my life decisions that led to that point I'd just drink a margarita because tequila is most suited to the job.

 

I'm one of those rare people that think Roble Blanco wasn't that bad.Not great but nowhere near the hate it received. But then again I wish they would re-brew Smoking Wood.

Having said that, aged Roble Blanco is not something I would buy.

 

Despite my joke I thought it hit the marks they were looking for so in that regard it was a complete success. It just isn't a flavor profile that I want in a beer.

I also wouldn't be opposed to Smoking Wood making a comeback.
