    have 2 4pks tasting off and the survey link and, from what I can gather, all links for the recall process no longer work. Link to recall air is off Instagram and the twitter link to the survey doesn’t work anymore. Am I missing something?

    It'll probably be set up to come and pick it up in a given time slot, right?

    Who knows what life will be like then. Last year anyone that wanted MD got it.

    MD has been on tap and available in growlers for a few months now. 32oz for $30...

    Honestly surprised that they are having a "release" for MD this year considering that is has been on tap for so long.

    Still a big money producer for them with people coming to the tap room, buying a ton of other beer and taps. Last years was f’in nuts with the amount of people there compared to years past. Obviously won’t be what it was in years past with the current pandemic, but could still see them having special taps and such.

    More so meant on the consumer interest side of things, not TG's... We all know how much Clark love his releases but if you can get more of a beer regularly for a better price, what makes a release special besides just a fresher batch?

    Curious to see the cost per bottle.

    Still bet it’s 50. I enjoy MD with a little bit of age on it compared to fresh MD and you can’t age growlers

    The survey was a joke. They had specific photos you had to send with the survey and no way to know they got it.

    All communication has been pre branded that makes it look like our tastes are just off.

    They arent even pulling that batch of King Sue.

    I'm a huge TG fan, but I'm not a fan on how they are responding to this last batch of beer that shouldn't have been releaaed.

    $50 for a non BA stout? Nah.

    Wish I would have saw this earlier.

    Bought a 6/9/20 4-pack of this. I know this isn't the one being recalled, but I thought it was terrible. Choked down 1 can, and will be dumping the rest.

    I bought the beer through their webshop and curbside pickup system. I replied to their email containing the receipt from my order and they replied back indicating that they were refunding my credit card for the 2 4pks I purchased. Had these 4pks been purchased off the shelf through non-taproom channels, zero idea how one gets their money back right now.

    Completely agree. I was really excited to find fresh cans of this, and was very disappointed. It was horrible.

    Nothing like paying 16+ for a 4 pack only to find a half ass product in the can.

    I honestly can't believe that they are still going with basically 100 for two MD bottles.We are like one year from this stuff being on shelves in liquor stores, so I kinda expected them to do something different this year whether it be smaller format with more bottles, variants, etc.

    I’ll still enter. It’s the only TG lottery I win. But can’t be there for session times due to being on call

    80 bucks is what they’ve been selling it for at other releases.
