    Not that I know... But I would be surprised if they dident. I would attribute the delay to them shifting the bulk of their production to the new place... again.... I could be wrong. But I would imagine it will return with force! I hope so atleast. Love that beer.

    Yeah pretty sure Scott mentioned last year that they weren't going to release it in 2014 because they've been too busy with the second location, now that all that is settled, I don't see why they wouldn't have that coming up.
    I really hope they release it, things just weren't the same at Freetail without it.

    It's in barrels. They just needed time to get production going at FT2. They had to essentially start their sour program over at the new brewery, but there should be more then there has been in the past from now on.

    How is the coffee stout?

    Unfortunately, I will be in the same area code as you this weekend til Tuesday. Perhaps we can coordinate being as far away from one another as possible.

    I personally like it, which should give you an indication that you'll hate it.

    I've heard of worse excuses to go to Austin.

    The whole business of staying in San Antonio as opposed to driving through it, leaves a rather foul taste in my mouth. (Much like your baking) I would have traveled to the vastly superior city of Austin had SXSW not been going down. Beggars can't be choosers.

    Thanks on the coffee stout. I will buy a few to never drink.

    That's only because those are "special" brownies made especially for you.

    You would have to actually "like" beer to drink it.

    There are several barrels at the new facility with Ananke aging in them. No clue when they'll be emptied. The brewpub will be throwing on some of their sours during SA Beer Week, but I don't know which ones.

    My love of beer commensurates with my feelings towards you Mr. Cain.

    Yes :slight_smile:

    Our barrel program has expanded considerably, but it will take time of course. But once finished beer starts rolling out from it, expect a steady flow.
