    So will all you guys that feel slighted not be at the next two releases or will we just see set pre-trades up for whales?

    The message is a little different from the one I received earlier in the week on Facebook from Bullfrog, when I inquired about the scathing reviews (worth noting that COP reviews are bad not just on BA but Untappd and basically everywhere else where people have reviewed this beer)--see below:

    There will be some action taken. Trying to make some sense of it all now. I'm not sure what would've happened to this beer, as it used to be quite drinkable and delicious, by my opinion. It may be in part from using kiwiberries, which most probably are unaware as to the flavor they impart on a beer. Due to the lower number of total bottles available, we really didn't taste it regularly the last couple of years leading up to the release. I wish we would've now.

    I appreciated ^ response a bit more than the one provided but hey, its just beer after all right?

    I wish all of you shat on your own local beers as much as you are taking shots at Bullfrog here. There is a lot of bad beer out there. I got over it a decade ago.

    Reads like a pretty good explanation to me. The brew was tasted over it's life cycle. They deemed it worthy and decided to release it at a price 17% less than before (yeah I know, doesn't seem like much but whatever). It wasn't forced upon anyone buying it.

    It sucks that the beer....well, sucks. Now I'm oddly looking forward to open my bottle.

    This... a million, billion, trillion times over. If you're gonna keep buying the beer, hyping it up, and trying to trade it, then STFU.

    ^ read below: "hopefully"

    I heard it would be before summer was over, that's about all I've heard. Hopefully it's not when Kane determines ANTEAD is to be released. No bueno if both are same day

    I still haven't heard / received anything for the Pub Club Membership that I signed up for on the Friday of the last release. :slight_frown:

    They don't send out emails until there is an update. I don't believe that I received a single email between the batch 1 Grrrz release and the email with the details of the most recent release.

    Long story short... you haven't missed any communication.

    Do you receive any type of verification that you are indeed a Pub Club Member? I signed up and paid the $150 fee, but haven't gotten anything, either through electronic or physical mail that says I am in the club. The woman I talked to when I signed up said that I would receive a card in the mail.

    I don't remember if I received any notifications when I joined the club.

    Does anyone know what they are releasing next? Not sure if this was buried somewhere in the thread

    Not sure, but I just had a bottle of the Grrrz Blueberry yesterday and it's really damn good. More sour than previous Grrrz bottles that I remember. Looking forward to the release...

    I had heard Grrrz, Grrrz Plum, and Grrrz Melange, but I have no idea if this is true or not, so take it with a grain of salt.

    I'd imagine Grrrz Blueberry too as it's already packaged and labeled; was fortunate to be able to try a bottle of it yesterday:

    Out of curiosity, how were you able to try this?

    And to anyone out there, maybe @Avalon68 , is there definitely going to be another Grrrz release this year? I remember reading in this thread that a mention of a possible late summer release, but I haven't seen anything from Bullfrog. This is wishful thinking on my part, but I wouldn't mind a day of release announcement for the next Grrrz set.

    I think he knows people who know people would be my guess.
