Founders 15th Anniversary Party

did you go to derek's tasting in holland a month or 2 ago?

 

Really fun time. Love the allstars!! Those wigs were crazy. CBS fantastic! Loved Bolt Cutter, too.

 

I still wish they had more on tap...

 

CBS and Breakfast Stout were the definite highlights (and the food truck!). Bolt Cutter was pretty good, and Boilermakers was passable. Wish I had seen some KBS or something else come out too though - all in all a fun weekend.

 

The Double Chocolate Double Coffee Breakfast Stout firkin was beautiful. New batch if CBS was killer as well, Bolt Cutter was delicious and Boilermaker was solid. I still say they should've had more rotating taps, but it was an absolute blast. All in all a solid time.

What the Truck having Beef Brisket Sammy was mind bending. Pretty much made my night.

 

I emailed founders how i hope they pull out more beers for kbs

 

Just so I'm clear on this...
They had the old batch of CBS, a NEW batch of CBS, Bolt Cutter, and a Double Chocolate Double Coffee Firkin of Breakfast Stout, but you thought it'd be a good idea to email them and ask for more beers to be served at a free party where they also provided you with live music and gave you access to what sounds like was some pretty damn good food?

 

Super douche move right there.

 

does founders still have bottles of bolt cutter?

 

I hope they email you pics of all the brewers bare asses as a response.

 

Released today to retailers. They might have some left over from people who did not buy their full allotment, or who did not show up to get their reserved bottles.

 

They are giving some of the people that missed their ticketed day a chance to pick up bottles this week too. They probably won't start selling the "left overs" through their store until next week.

 

You're cute.

 

So, I went..Boltcutter was probably my favorite Barleywine of all time that ive had.

 

REALLY??? I feel sorry for you then.

 

Does bolt cutter compare to king Henry? It was barrel aged, like a blend or somethin, right?

 

I agree. It must be my new beard.

 

They are giving these people a chance this week? Where did you read or hear that? Thanks!

 

Directly from the folks there on Thursday night, and from my buddy that missed picking his up this past week. They were having people call or email the director of operations. They sounded like they were willing to help people out that missed their day.

 

Not at all like KH. Completely different beer. I haven't had it on tap, but I opened a bottle last night solo. It was OK, very hoppy (no idea why it's classified as an EB), very hot (I get that it's 15%, but pretty fusel), and almost zero barrel character (maple or bourbon). I liked it, and it may very well turn into something special over time, but for now I don't think I'd classify it as an amazing beer.
