another bruery hoodie...

my first year at RS. i'd take a hoodie, but the bottle/growler bag is NICE - it's so sturdy!

 

I really wish they'd stop doing hoodies. While it might be nice for new members who don't already have one, it feels like a bit of a waste for those of us who already do. And as somebody who doesn't wear hoodies, I would prefer to have a random bottle of beer or equally priced options instead of a item I hang in a closet.

 

i was hoping for glassware

 

I'm 6'3 and 150, and a large fits me rather well. While the overall fit is small (I'm normally swimming in large hoodies), both the sleeves and chest run long. If you're rather broad shouldered/have thick wrists, order an XL.

 

And here I was wondering what the merch was for this year. I didn't even wear my hoodie from last year. In fact, it's still in the box I picked up my stuff from last year.

Anyone has pictures of this years vintage?

 

FT: RS Hoodie
ISO: Ham Sammich

 

FT ham sammich. ISO small 2013 RS hoodie. IP @ RS initiation party or tasting room gets preference. Spicy brown mustard will require making up $4$.

 

I wonder if these really run small or if it's just that there is even more sugar in bruery beers than it seems.

 

Clearly they need to switch to snow parkas to match our climate here....

 

Add me to the chorus: Loved the growler bag. Not excited about a hoodie.

 

I think velour Bruery tracksuits would be a great alternative.

 

Bruery needs elastic waistband sweatpants for all those chugging their underattenuated sugarbombs + late night burrito's.

 

Bruery-branded diabetes compression socks? We all know how an RS member's circulation gets after a long night of hyperglycemia.

 

I was thinking the word "RUE" across the ass of each pair of beersweats with a compression pouch for your junk so you get that 'reach around' feeling after paying out the nose for a 13% 1.060FG barrel aged beer.

 

Oh my god that is disturbing.

 

What? The compression junk pouch? It better be detachable and washable after the 2013 release of "Happy Endings".

 

I was referring to the FG of the beer. I think the sweatpants junkfondler would be a hit.

 

I am wondering why Bruery decides to use the slim fit apparel for the Reserve Societies when 90% of the Society members are anything but slim.

Maybe for 2014 Bruery insta-beards for the 10% of the members that don't have one? Or perhaps continuing the slim-fit "hipster" theme, Bruery skinny jeans or fedoras?

 

Most 5.5% to 6% beer has an OG of 1.06. Its super high for a finished beer. Too much sugar.
