Bruery 2017 RS/HS Allocations

Do high end beers like this sell in Arizona? Maybe in that market, people don't want to shell out $25 for a 750ml of beer?

 

16oz cans of Humulus Lager up on the allocation page.

 

'17 Hoarders Cuvee and Hoarders Terreux Cuvee also up.

 

anyone know if these are available for pick up today for Rs/HS members?

 

I had several orders to pickup today so I just sent an email asking if I can pick these up too. I’ll reply back with what I hear.

 

Come and get 'em!

 

@BruerJoel If I go into the tasting room on Tuesday afternoon and order like 10 crowlers are they going to laugh at me or is that cool?

 

Is it known if there will be anything special on draft Dec 24th or Dec 31st? I don't remember last year, but I think it was Dec 24th...and everything on draft was available for growler fill.

Trying to plan when my next visit is...

Thanks!

 

Would any society member be willing to save me a few empty Humulus cans for my collection?

 

I just so happened to be in the area today so I picked up 2 4-packs of Humulus Lager. Super excited that they finally canned this. Hopefully I'll find some time to drink one tonight.

 

Sure

 

Bump

 

I remember when I was in a rush to buy because I wasn't sure it would last.

 

I think it's quality driven personally. CR just ain't what it used to be. The entire BT line if we're being honest. 2014 was the last great yr for that line IMO. Scaling is really difficult.

 

Have BT variants always been more expensive than Regular BT?

 

Yes.

 

CR sold out? Was going to grab a few more, but got busy.

 

They made it available to non-society members too, so perhaps that sparked a run?

 

To an extent for sure, but I think part of it is that The Bruery is a 5-hour drive from Phoenix, and with how much else is going on in Southern California these days, many who are willing to drop $30-40 on a bottle of beer probably just pick up what they're looking for at the source while they're already out there. (Myself included)

Scarcity is part of it as well - once something becomes regularly available and the hype dies down, people lose interest. There's more than a few stores with shelves full of dusty Bruery, Cascade, Eclipse, etc.

 

Is this our first shot at HS Terreux Cuvee for 2017? I don't recall seeing it or buying any....if so, why is it first come, first serve?
