    I don't think that ended up being poured. Did it?

    Just a subtle, subtle touch of Tartness. Less than the less batch of bottles... working to get it dialed in perfectly.

    So I dont want position this post as a thread jack but... Is anyone as excited as me for the upcoming birth of tragedy release? We had the opportunity to try a small portion at the harvest festival and we lost our minds on how delicious it was. Moreover, I also want to try some Susan and fill my growler allocation with Greensboro goodness (love this thread). Cheers!

    Does anyone know if the Juicy survived today? I might make it up there tomorrow, but that would certainly further incentivize a trip. Also curious if S&S5 is gone for good or if it might return at some point. Oh I just saw the twitter post on rebrewing the entire series at some point, so never mind on the second question.

    I was there at like 130 today and there were still (if i'm remembering right) a few dozen bottles left of Juicy. I actually got the last bottle of twilight of the idols, but I could've sworn they said they were bottling more today. I dk what that means for a release date though. Oh, and they also had some Damon there.

    Juicy still on shelves. First dozen or more customers will get some. Likewise, the shelf also has: Damon, Jimmy, Cantillon Iris, and Cantillon Gueuze. Twilight of the Idols will be bottled on Monday. Onto the shelves about two weeks later... just before the end of the year.

    Is that batch 1 Damon? Or a quite release of the new batch...

    Anything special planned for Christmas week? And/or do you think you have enough Birth of Tragedy to last until then? Trying to possibly plan a trip for that week if I can...

    A few friends and I are coming all the way from New Jersey and will be there this upcoming Friday the 7th. See on the website the BoT is scheduled for release the week of the 10th. Any chance a few bottles might be able to sneak out early? Maybe insight on what might be on the shelves? I see we missed Twilight by a few weeks on either side.

    I was debating on heading up today and this news just made my decision very easy. See you in a little while!

    Original batch. There are only a few bottles on the shelf though...

    The week prior to Christmas will likely see some incredible bottles on the shelves, you can be sure. Not just our own, but our favorite beers from other brewers.

    I'll be there the weekend of the 15th for a nice beer weekend. Can't wait to try all these Vermont beers. Hopefully there will be some good bottles left when I get there!!

    I'm now in the process of rearranging things to see to it that I'm up there on THursday before Christmas.

    Also, I'm polishing off the last of my S&S #5. I think it may be the best beer I've ever had. Grapefruit bomb, I will cry myself to sleep praying that this is brewed again. Also, go Pats.
