Bruery RS/HS Allocations (2019)

Poached Fig. Actually, I found this pretty impressive. It does taste like a fig newton, though you totally taste the bourbon presence. My wife noticed the bourbon more than the fig. Did not pickup any notes of lemon zest. That's a good thing, I was concerned it might ruin it. For a cheap price, will get a bunch.

Mocha Weds. Massive Cocoa Nibs, more than coffee. I like that, because I've been getting a little overload with just coffee BA stouts.

More Room for More. Loved this, no surprise. The previous 2 versions were my favorite sours from them. More fruit is always a delight. No reason not to max this bottle if you enjoy fruity sours.

Bruesicles, were great as usual. Mango Charms, is my favorite to date. Definitely sweet, though so delicious. Grabbed some crowlers to go.

I went to Terreux, and they didn't have S'more BBls.

 

I didn't get any e-mail about that, just double checked. As far as I know RS still only gets the (1) can.

 

Anyone know if you can add a single can (like wee heavy coconuts) to a flex shipper that is all bottles otherwise, or does it have to be as part of an order that is all cans?

 

Yes, you can. I have done it in the past.

 

Yes. I've not done it myself, yet. But will be shipping some with my 2018 closeout soon. I had asked previously as I was wondering if you could get two cans in one bottle slot. Was a little disappointed to find it was only one can as that drives the cost per can to ship through the roof. So, if you want to ship can's and do it as cheaply as possible, ship them with a can shipper. But they will ship in the bottle shipper.

 

Ive tried, cant fit 2, 16oz cans in 1 slot.

Two, 12oz cans, yes.

 

Had a can of Atta Boysenberry last night. So very good. Really hope we see more non-chocolate White Oak Sap treatments this year (I like the chocolate too, just want to see them branch out).

 

Really excited about the below post. I've always been impressed with the Bruery's interpretation of classic styles, specifically their helles which will be the first batch under the Ruekeller Project. If it's anything like the helles on tap a year or so ago, please can this. Oktoberfest showcased several great classic styles and was one of my favorite Bruery events, I'm very interested to see what other traditional beers are on their radar.

One of my main gripes with the tasting room is the lack of low ABV clean beers that aren't sours. After knocking down a flight of 8-9%+ beers (let's be honest most are in the +12% range) the lack of easier to drink beers without looking to Terreux has been a disappointment. Props to The Bruery for going down a road that isn't necessarily sexy or trendy to the mass but such a great underappreciated style. The year of the lager continues

 

Anyone know of anyone that hit the limit to purchase vintage or archive bottles?

 

"Draft-Only"

 

Context?

 

Last year bruery stated that once certain thresholds were surpassed via bottle sales and tasting room visits ($$) they would reward you with free bottles. To this date nobody has passed any thresholds, or at least nobody has spoken up about it.

 

I wasn't sure if there was a different promo theoretically offering bottles for sale vs for free.

 

I cant tell if this is a joke or not... haha

 

I had completely forgot about L’Deracola. It didn’t sound good in the press release so I didn’t buy any. While at the anniversary party that year, curiosity got the best of me. Late in the party, I grabbed a taster. One sip and I spit it out. I dumped the remainder on the ground and left the festival disgusted.

 

Definitely not true.

He's trolling

 

You get crowlers of The Terrence
