Bruery RS/HS Allocations (2020)

Mine shipped... Should come tomorrow... If I can get one in fridge early enough I'll open one of them tomorrow night. Any requests?

 

I request that you drink 300ml of each one, then pour the remainder of each bottle together for a final 300ml mega-blend. Please take careful notes along the way so we can observe your evening devolve in real-time.

 

I'm not marshmallow... YOU'RE... wait wut?

 

For the record, "drunk" me still used the correct "you're" because this isn't 'Nam and there are still RULES!

Thanks! Got cans in the cellar, need to ship cans.
Haven't noticed the summary. I'll go check that out.

 

22.8% wowzers.

 

Oooh. Last year was finished in Brandy Barrels. This year in Rye! Nice little twist to try side by side.

 

That

That summary graphic was for buying new beer...I think when adding items already in cellar there's a different graphic that's more of a counter with X spots remaining based on max shipping size.

Also, note you can add new purchases to your cart and then add cellar items in with them. Pretty cool. Saves a few extra steps.

 

Mine are due today as well. But I've got to finish a half bottle of Anthem.

I'm interested in Love at Midnight only because I'm skeptical I'm going to like it. Probably get to one tomorrow.

 

Interesting. Nice that you can add cellar items to a new order. I do now see the summary graphic. It doesn't know how to handle 4 packs though. They don't get added into the summary. It's also trying to ding me for $30 shipping of 16 cans. Pretty sure the 16 can shipper was $18.

 

Yep. BT box, 6 BT’s and shipping. Over $400. Knowing I’ll have the beer tomorrow eases the pain though haha.

 

Anyone ever had this happen with GSO before? My BT box shipped yesterday has this tracking update:

DEL RESCHED - MISSED PICKUP CUTOFF FROM 10/08/2020 TO 10/09/2020

No delicious BT variants for me tonight

 

Mine has something similar... But also says estimated delivery is Dec 10... So could just beer a bug in GSO's system?

 

Ha! Mine says the same thing (Dec 10). I assume it's a mixture of
- our packages probably really were delayed (otherwise I'd expect to see some kind of "out for delivery in the Bay Area" update today), and
- there's a bug in updating delivery dates.

 

Mine appears to have been delayed as well. That 12/10 date is on the shippypro.com website. I tunnel down to the GLS/GSO website directly as I believe that it is more current/correct info. It doesn't appear to have left SoCal and they just moved the delivery date from the 8th to the 9th.

All those dates are based on some algorithm. I had to leave my office for an hour one morning I was expecting a GSO delivery. Knowing I was going to be gone I tried to get GSO to schedule around it. I was told the best they can do is send a txt notification approximately 30 minutes before the driver arrived. But that the txt was solely based on some computers tracking of the drivers stops and estimated arrival times. As it turns out, I missed the driver and the txt came 30 minutes after he attempted delivery.

 

Mine showed up today but I won't be drinking until tomorrow nigh (work, you know? )
Hope someone else does some early tasting notes, though!

 

Oh, man - this will be an absolute MAX for me! One of the reasons I love Cherry Chocolate Rain so much is that it's finished in Rye barrels. This should be outstanding!

 

Yes, I have had GSO drop the ball on my shipments, as well. very frustrating.
