Bruery RS/HS Allocations (2019)

I also enjoyed American Copper, and ba 10 lords, still waiting for Westwood to get delivered to try

 

I would love some Smooth Criminal

 

More Cherry Chocolate Rain and American Anthem will be a big snoozefest, hopefully there will be some archived offerings older than 2018.

 

Black Tuesday reserve '18 and ' 14 black Tuesday and weekday stouts works for me.

 

They had some in the TR some time back if you have a trustee on site who can check.

 

As a RS member, I'm hoping this is the year for Black Tuesday Reserve, just one. PLEASE. With all the Hoarder's boxes coming out this should be doable, without much anger.

 

Marie-Antoinette: “Let them drink BT Reserve!”

 

Trying to cut my spending on beer this year since I have about 300 bottles, so looking forward to the hoarder boxes this year.

The bigger question is, how many bottles did you have the beginning of last year. As long as your backlog hasn't increased, your winning!

 

Very unlikely given HS was only allocated a single bottle (besides the two included in membership). I'm rooting for you... I just don't think they have any left! Unless you mean the grape brandy version coming this year... in which case who knows?

 

Hoping they release Churriosity and Last Slice as allocations to watch everyone lose their minds.

American Anthem was my favorite Bruery beer last year, so I won't be bummed if I can get more.

 

Loved American Anthem. I can't imagine that it will better aged though. So it would "force" me to drink these relatively fresh.

 

Really? What about it do you think won't age? Even if it just stays the same I'd sit on a couple more.

 

I did, but we switched to dc pickup for this yr

 

About 190/210. Somewhere in there. Been busy with work so sitting around and cracking open a big abv is hard.

 

Oh, so inventory increased about 100 bottles? oh boy!

Best wishes to keeping it under control.

I'm not suggesting it won't be good in a year or in several years. I find it so enjoyable now, and some beers with cinnamon - once aged doesn't taste as good. Such as Mash French Toast.

Speaking of Mash French Toast, I'm expecting another batch to be released 2019. And hopefully sooner than later.

 

My count has gone up, but so has the ratio of small format bottles, so volume increase change isn't as extreme. #justification

 

I'm a big fan of American Anthem too. I liked how the first sip had me thinking it was more apple pie than peach cobbler. But that second sip...

I'm a big fan of Mash and French Toast. Fresh it was fantastic. It slipped a bit with about a year on it.

Was it just me or wasn't there supposed to be a "Brown Ale with Cinnamon and Nutmeg" for 2018? Or did I just happen to see it on the 2019 list? Although I'm pretty sure I commented on it being a "Brown Ale" about a year ago.
