    It's easy, if you don't want to sign up don't. If you do, have at it.

    I tried one of their beers a while back and it was average for a sour. Just saying.

    ^ This. Just wanted to make sure the news was spread to fellow BAs. More wild beer in the wild is always a good thing!

    I've also tasted some, these guys were all at the Beachwood Cantillon/Hill Farmstead takeover last year.

    I'll be nice and say it was an average beer.

    I know sometime ago that the brewer or friend of the brewer was trying to flip bottles of CASA stuff for whales Assassin, Flora, Cantillon one offs etc....needless to say he got flamed.

    I believe that was his avatar. Never really was clear on what association he had with the brewery. At that time CASA was still considered home brew with untapped checkins as the only known reference.

    If it's him I heard recently that he's no longer with the Casa Agria group.

    Yikes, $300 for 10 bottles.
    Wonder what non-member bottle prices will be like.

    That's probably for the best, he wasn't gaining them the kind of attention they wanted....

    I wouldn't say a joke, it just sounds like some homebrewers who want to take advantage of social media and hype their stuff to get some capital. They seem to run in the right beerbro circles on Instagram etc to know who to send their beers to. If you are all about flipping beers on the trade scene it looks like this is the ground floor.

    All the best to them but having not had anything from them and not knowing, personally, anyone who has I'm very reluctant to drop $300 for ten beers over the next year and nine months from a group of homebrewers.

    At this point I've just come to really enjoy reading your posts for pure comedic value. You're consistent grumpiness is f'n hilarious! Keep up the good work.

    If someone needs a Trustee, pm me and let's talk. I live about 45 min away from their brewery

    If you need a trustee, myself or any number of local VCBeerSociety guys would do it for nothing. Casa brewer/owner is a friend and we'll help them out anyway possible. Cheers
