Bruery 2018 RS/HS Allocations

Does anyone know where I can reference the list of included beers for Reserve this year? I can't recall if Cherry Choco Rain and Etain are, I am near certain Etain is however.

They take up regular slots in shipper. They fill the extra space with bubble wrap. So you're paying more to ship per ounce on net, but less total money overall.

 

This is how I was hoping they'd do it, good to hear.

 

@SDReaper - we're on the 565 Surfliner, getting in at 9:00am. If you have any breakfast recommendations, please let me know! Also, our flight gets in to San Diego around 8:00am Friday morning; we're planning on running around to a few breweries (Alesmith and MT are the for sure stops, a few others are up in the air). Always happy for recommendations and/or to meet up grab some beers with any local BA's in San Diego as well!

 

I will do my best to remember the name of the place that I usually grab breakfast right off the train. I was taken there a few anniversaries ago by a buddy and have since been making it a habit...so the name escapes me just because I walk over there immediately order and then walk to the phoenix club.

We also tend to have adult beverages on the train because pre-gaming is required....you know....because there totally aren't great breweries that bring great beer to this festival so we have to drink some prior. /s (honestly I don't know why we do it since there is no need, but ah well) Also no, drinking on the train is not allowed unless you are in a private car, business class, or ordered a drink from the drink car. The conductor tends to look the other way when they come through checking tickets since we are drinking out of a solo cup, don't have bottles clanging around, and aren't being assholes though.

 

Random recommendation from a non-SD resident: having been to both MT locations, the Lomaland one (not the one in North Park) is way better if you can get there. It's bigger and there's more stuff on tap.

 

Much appreciated!

 

Am I high, or did we get two sets of allocations this month? Red Wine BT and Les Ronces are already gone..hadn't bought any yet, now there's a whole new lineup.

 

There were two sets of allocations this month. You may well, unrelatedly, be high; who am I to say?

 

Red wine BT, les ronces, coffee life, those allocations ended Sunday...and I'm definitely high.

 

Anyone see their Instagram post with some PB&J In barrels? Think we’re getting more or what?

 

That beer probably spends at least 9-12 months soaking in wood so the '19 vintage is likely already racked to the barrels.

 

Yikes, missed out at all. Hopefully you'll be able to snag them later this year at some point.

I'm hoping the January batch will be available in a sale eventually ! Those two bottles included... Were not sufficient.

 

Yea but was thinking maybe it’s a hint for the anniversary sale or something.

 

You could be right if they add the pb&j to the BT barrels at the very end and those barrels are already mature and ready for bottling. That actually does make more sense.

 

I feel like the release cadence this year has pretty much been bi-monthly, to the point I almost expect mid-month allocations.

 

Dammit. I was really pleased they went back to the whole month availability because that one week window last year sucked for those of us on a weekly budget. It would be great if they stuck to a timeline and left it, or let us know "hey, you have X days to get these before they're gone".

 

This was at the very bottom of the email “The above allocated beers are available to order through Sunday, April 15. You must be logged in to TheBrueryStore.com for access.”
