Bank Account Taking A Beating

Me too. Just got back from a trip to Portland.

2011 Abyss x4
Upright Gose x2
50/50 Eclipse Rye
Arctic Devil
Cascade Blueberry x2
and the BWXIII tomorrow.

Ouch

 

I agree. I wish I had waited to order Blueberry so I could have combined the orders at Cascade. Can't wait to see how much Bottleworks is tomorrow. Plus I hope to have someone at the Beatification release.

 

I feel you. My wallet is working overtime. Just today, I picked up 2 bottles of Upright Fantasia Five (Five aged on Fantasia barrels) and 2 bottles of Cascade Blueberry. Then I'll be picking up 3 bottles of Blend Love and at least 1 bottle of The Vine next weekend.

I actually had the "original" blueberry at the Cascade Barrel House tonight. So tasty.

 

I know the feeling. Got 3 bottles of blueberry on Thursday, picking up 3 bottles of Fantasia Five today, and probably splurging on a case of Blend Love next week.

Beer>rent

 

I forgot that that I was picking up a couple of bottles of The Commons Brotherly Love today as well. I'm pretty excited to try this beer. I'll probably snag another bottle or two of the Fantasia Five next weekend at the Upright 3rd Year anniversary party (if they have some left).

Man, splurging on a case of Blend Love, huh? I'd love to do that (especially if it's as good or better than Four Play) but I just made a bunch of trades for Hunahpu so my beer budget isn't as large as usual. But having 5 bottles of Hunahpu is not a bad thing.

I like Beer>rent. Unfortunately, it's sad but true.

 

I'm going down to Portland next week for the Love release and will be swinging by Cascade to pick up the Blueberry/Vine. My biggest problem is going to be trying to decide how many of the Blueberry/Vine to get.

 

If anybody could snag me some Fantasia Five I would pay you back with cash or beer. I won't. E able to make it back to Portland for a week or two and I dont want to miss that one.

 

I really enjoy Blend Love, had it the last time it was on tap at the tasting room.

 

Did you manage to pick up a COUPLE of bottles of Brotherly love? I thought there were only 150 bottles made.

 

I'm not sure what the limit was, but I picked up 3 bottles of the Brotherly Love at the release. The Commons is one of my favorite breweries in Portland, basically everything I've had from them has been good. Can't wait to crack open a bottle of the Brotherly Love

 

I did. My girlfriend and I got a bottle each. I got #109 and she got #143 (not sure why the bottle numbers were so far apart). I'm not sure if there was a limit or not.

 

Anyone from Seattle going down to the Blend Love release in Portland on Friday please message me.

 

The time is accurate. The tasting room doesn't open til 4:30. They are not opening up early for the anniverary party.

 

Yeah That would have been nice. Hit up Cascade Thursday night for the Vine and some Blueberry, Then Upright and be back to Seattle in time for bed.

 

I've managed to curtail my beer spending lately but with all these releases I'm probably about to change that. Blend Love actually looks like a pretty good deal at $125 a case. At just over $10 a bottle that might be the best bang for the buck among local sours. That's where I'm spending my money on Friday. See you guys there when the doors open!

 

You guys are hoarders! You don't need to buy every beer.
