Bruery 2018 RS/HS Allocations

Payments would be nice, but that included beer list just didn't do it for me.

 

More than likely a dumb/rookie question however, i just want to confirm whether this event event is open to non members. please advise, thank you.

 

Hoarders/Reserve only

 

I assume they will do something in the tasting room, a couple of vintage taps or what not. You're right, usually they make a bigger deal out of it.

 

I wish I had the option to purchase a membership that offered the full tasting menu list. As a RS member the past few years I've enjoyed the RS/PS menu more than anything. I don't have a ton of beer friends and the limited tasters 1-2 a month or so is more down my alley rather than dropping 20-30 on one bottle. If full tasting room access was ever an option at a reasonable rate I'd be all over it. Tasting room + Event access would be perfect.

 

Check out the Instagram story for @thebruery right now, they're doing some crazy things!

"dairy beer brewed with lactose, freeze dried heavy cream powder and vanilla" + "a sweet stout base infused with plenty of coffee from Ryan Brothers in SD" layered on top of each other in the same glass to create Latte Art.

Looks, and sounds, excellent. Someone go over there right now and taste test for us!!

 

I like this idea

 

Any Reserve Bruery + Terreux members know what included bottles we should still be expecting?

 

Don't know about RS, but for HS it's:

5. Spirit Barrel-aged 10 Lords a Leaping
6. Spontanaheim (a collaboration with Jester King featuring grapes in spontaneously fermented beer) (I imagine this isn't coming this year since its listed as a 2019 bottle; any word what the replacement is?)
...
17 & 18. The Bruery Hoarders Cuvee (2018)
19 & 20. Hoarders Society-exclusive collaboration from The Bruery with a prominent Napa Valley producer

I think at least the BA 10 Lords is still coming for you guys? And a wineification beer?

 

Unless something happened it's just the Pinot Noir Collab (x2) and Bal-aged 10 Lords left.

 

What about the key lime pie sour? Was that released yet?

 

If you were to just do RS and not buy any extra beer that's pretty reasonable.

 

Remaining RS included beers for the The Bruery + Terreux option are:
-- 1-750 BA 10 Lords A Leaping
-- 2-375 Pinot Noir Collab
-- 1-375 Key Lime Sour

 

I haven't bought any 750s of BT this year, I might end up getting one. If they do 375s at half the price I would likely buy at least 6. With something that high in ABV I don't see myself opening a 750 but 375 could happen regularly.

 

I don't solo a BT, but either I share when a friend is over - or I can drink it the next day or 2. Their stopper holds the beer very well!

 

I would only add that while I agree 100% with this, I would also prefer to buy 375's all day long assuming same price per ounce. More flexibility and no down side that I can see.

 

I've said this before and I'll say it again, the high ABV bruery stuff is better on day 2 or 3.
