    If the last Can Jam at Three's Brewing in October is any indication, beers were prices at $6 per.

    Also assuming the beer list will be announced a few days prior to the event as well.

    I'm curious about case counts. Hopefully they will have enough for most of the cans to last well into the afternoon.

    Unfortunately yes. I arrived about 1:45 and there were only 4 non-triple crossing beers left. Great turnout for this event. I was hoping there would enough stock to last into the afternoon, but the turnout for this took care of that. Hopefully TC will try this type of event again and will be able to acquire more product.

    I got there around 12:30 and only a couple had sold out while I was in line. They started selling out quickly after that. However I got my initial three and three of us drank those and socialized. We were still able to go back and get four more before most things started selling out. More cans would have been great but I still had a blast. I would definitely do it again. I think this approach is better than the normal festival. No entry fee and no minimums. If you only wanted one hard to get beer, you were only out $6.

    Yeah they issued an apology and all but I think the format of this thing makes it hard to get too upset about the early sellout.

    Right, they admitted to under estimating turnout. Obviously , the only way to guarantee that you have a chance to try what you want is to be there at opening. But for event advertised as going until 8, I imagine there were many who thought that meant there would be cans into the evening. That's too bad, but hopefully it means TC will load up with more stock the next time they try this type of event, which would be a win for all of us beer fans.

    Green Dreams makes a return on Friday. If IG is any indication of the 2nd offering it looks to be a new variation of Proxmity Project (Raspberry).
    ______________________________________
    Green Dreams 8% DIPA - This iteration we hopped our beloved GD with Galaxy, Falconers Flight and Simcoe. Notes of fuzzy peach, tangerine, passionfruit and the dankness to round it out. The mouthfeel can also be described as extra creamy and soft.
    We are shooting for 250 cases at $17 per 4 pack (1 case limit)

    On sale at noon in Fulton and there will also be another beer we will be announcing later today that will be released Friday.

    2nd release confirmed...
    ___________________________
    Proximity Project: Raspberry Sliced will be on sale at both breweries on Friday, 2/23 at noon for $14.50 a bottle (4 bottle limit). There will also be draft pours available. Raspberry Sliced is the fourth vintage of our wild ale series and this time re-fermented on one of our favorite fruits raspberry. This bright red mixed fermentation sour has lovely funky notes and a touch of sweetness and tartness. This golden sour was inoculated with a mixed culture of brewer’s yeast and native wild microflora from our brewery grounds in Fulton. We aged this golden sour on oak then re-fermented it on top of raspberry in stainless. The beer and the wood it lives within, their simplicity and complexity, is at the core of the Proximity Project.

    **Green Dreams will only be available in Fulton on Friday but Proximity Project will be at both breweries.**

    Not much of a line as of around 12:30. Just inside the door by the Bocce court. 15-20 people I would guess. WP Passionfruit cans 86’d just before I left.

    3 can release coming up Friday (3/9) Noon at Fulton... No mention of counts yet but should be pretty healthy
    ____________________________________________________

    - All Neon Like 6% IPA - Our reformulated crushable Australian hop inspired IPA with Galaxy and Vic Secret

    - Out of the Blue 6% Porter with coconut and Blachard’s coffee. This Porter was conditioned on toasted coconut and a moderate amount of whole beans giving the beer notes of chocolate, caramelized fruit and roasted nuts with an expressive coconut aroma.

    - Galaxy So Mosaic 8% DIPA - Galaxy and Mosaic give off pungent citrus, peach, pineapple, mango and passionfruit throughout. All of the exotic fruits are prevalent in this delicately soft DIPA.
