    Wonder if the 7 day pack will be 375ml or 750ml

    Or cans? Feels like there's gotta be something unique other than just bundling regular bottles... Unless a couple (Wed & Thur?) are exclusive to the pack and can't be bought alone?

    Could also be bundled with glasses and meant more as a gift than a functional method of beer purchase for members...

    The 2021 Hoarders membership included a “Welcome gift of 2 Hoarders-exclusive glasses”. Can someone remind me what these were, or if they got delayed or turned into something else or what?

    I am really drawing a blank on these, so maybe I just never asked my trustee to send them to me!

    I see that the 2022 details also mention exclusive merch, but no details around what type of merch it will be…

    I'm still on the fence about renewing, keeping mixed, or switching to Bruery only. Their website wasn't as helpful as having a side-by-side chart.

    Thanks for sharing! When you see the bottles that you'd miss by going with the mix, It's pretty tempting to switch to the mix. The Monster variant is likely the only one that I'd be upset about if I couldn't buy allocations, and they've produced an adequate amount of the first two, so not likely to be a real concern.

    Do you all have a card on file to do an auto-renew? I don’t recall an option to store one but maybe I just missed it.

    My initial thought was switch to Bruery only because it felt like a lot of cocktail-themed beers in the mix. But the side-by-side showed more variety in the mix and not any doubles so I'll probably stick with it. That Monster stout did seem to be the only stand-out on the left so I'll just have to grab some when they drop.

    The bottle of Chew I had in June was OK. I noted that it didn't have quite as much fruit as the HS Box beer. I've got another bottle stashed away somewhere. I guess I'd better dig it out tonight.

    I didn't mean to keep a Spicy Island this long cause I figure these BT boxes are meant to be fresh... But I'm having my last one tonight and it's great. Still amazing to me that this beer works.

    Have one more in the fridge. It definitely works more than expected, was my favorite from that box.

    Yeah I have a similar question for Reserve. Was the included merch given out this year? I just looked and saw the email from the beginning of the year saying the glasses would be available in March but nothing further.

    So… thoughts on Big Blue Stacks? That price point is turning me off, but the thought of maple syrup soaked pancakes is turning me right back on!

    Well it’s got to be worth getting at least one bottle given the high ratings so far.

    Agreed. Grabbed two here. For as soon as I get it, and Christmas or something.

    From a friend who I trust, he said BBS is well worth it. Also he had BA Three's CoCoccompany from the barrel (still) and said it was really good and the coconut was really pronounced. A little thin but hopefully carbonation will round out the body a little. Also of the BT box variants he tasted. The cobbler was ok and the carrot was "interesting" and definitely worth a get at 375ml. Didn't tell me about the other two. Great that we can buy each individually but I do miss the thrill of getting a box....even if my wife didn't like the bill.

    Also he said BT 2022 base was thinner and super dry and he loved it because it really is separating itself from the sweeter, adjunct stouts.

    When is a box not a box?
