Tree House Brewing (2022)

No. They have locations in Deerfield, sandwich (cape cod), and Charlton. You'd have to either get a proxy to meet you with it in Boston or make your way out. See the treehouse thread for info. I think there is a proxy request thread as well.

 

Went to Deerfield for pizza and a pour on Saturday and it was fantastic! We got there a little before noon so we could get our pizza order in early to avoid a wait and actually had the first two pies of the day. Pizzas were large and quite good. Only got one beer b/c I had a long day of driving, but the side pull of Ramble I had was great! Not sure how long the pizza wait was a little later, but within 30 minutes of opening, the place was a zoo. Not in a bad way necessarily, but it was bustling. Really beautiful grounds and despite the heat, it was a very relaxing atmosphere. I look forward to repeating the experience this fall.

Also, as someone who was a huge fan of Green from 2015 on, I'm happy to report that Green is getting closer to the beer that made me fall in love with TH in the first place.

 

I was there at exactly the same time. Since we arrived before noon, we picked up the beer first, then a super quick lunch with pizza and a beer. We were back on the road by 12:45 or so. It did become quite busy quickly, busier than I remember from a visit two Saturdays before.

 

Bit of a tangent but this reminds me of an article about Tree House I was reading years ago in a beer magazine. It claimed that TH afficionados had long been known to mix their beers together (ie. Green & Julius) to create some interesting concoctions. I have NEVER seen any mention of this on here, or from anyone I've spoke to.

So, can anyone weight in here or is it just one of those (pretty dull tbf) urban myths?

 

Definitely not an urban myth but I don't know how prevalent it was nor would I say they were "aficionados". There was (not sure if it still exists) a Facebook/Instagram group called Mixmasters the sole purpose of which was to mix beers and post pictures of them. Saw lots of TH beers being mixed. Plus lots of fruited sours ("look at the colors!").

Edit: Found this here on BA, years ago thread for mixing beers.

 

Doesn't everyone do a cuvee every now and then?

I've mixed a few together and usually it's one form of Green with another form of Julius. Always delicious

 

You could argue that every non-core beer is just a cuvee of the core four

 

sometimes I'll pour a new beer without rinsing the glass that previously had a different beer....

does that count?

 

That's how I invented Maple Green

 

I always chuckle when companies make claims like this "As far as we can tell, there is not another ready-to-drink cocktail like it anywhere in the world." I picture Nate traveling to remote parts of the world sampling every canned Rum n Cola he can find.

Yeah love that marketing! At this point they could sell Treehouse bricks and would sell out.

 

Swept the top 5 dipa’s on untappd 2022

 

This one is wholly different than ordinary cola, dude.

Kidding aside, I bet it's pretty good. Every product they make has plenty of passion behind it, can't fault them for that.

 

I saw that. Here's the link for anyone interested:

proceeds to scroll through a list of Imperial NEIPAs

 

That list is so phony. Yes, almost all of them (the top 5) are amazing beers (except Emperor Julius), but the vast majority of people who score them are going to give an auto 4.25+ rating

 

A single name takes that list to task
Abner

Cheers

 

Funny that the hazy DIPA rankings are basically Parish, Parish collabs, and Fidens.

 

All seriousness, probably the most ordinary beer they make in 2022. Tbh it was never my favorite HF, but it’s not quite what it used to be to me.

HF > TH in most things, but I think most Tree House DIPAs > most Hill DIPAs

 

Abner? Nah.
