Solar Abyss

Not sure the exact amount produced, but considering there are no limits at the brewery for the release on Saturday I assume they made a good amount of it. Excited as hell that this beer is available in cans this time around.

 

It's weird to me that they specified "no limits"

Who is loading up on multiple cases of a 10% DIPA? It's a good beer, but it would be genuine challenge to get through 24 or more cans of it while its still fresh.

 

Trade Bait most likely.

 

When OTWOA was rereleased after brau reopened there were dudes buying up 5-6 cases.

I wouldn't be surprised to see that repeat here

 

Never underestimate the buying capacity of people who think shipping canned IPAs across the country in the middle of summer in un-air-conditioned vans is a good idea.

 

I was planning on heading to the brewery Saturday, but I've never been to DC Brau. Should I expect a long line? And is SA a pretty standard DIPA? I'm assuming it doesn't have a malty backbone that would make it conducive to sit on for a little, right? Would love to hear some insight from those that tasted it last time or have been to a DCB release. I'm totally free on Saturday but want to make sure a trip is worth my while! And I would estimate a 6er is same as OTWOA, at $18 probably?

 

Third rule of beer club - never ever underestimate other beer nerd's greed

 

Double check before you make plans, I think the release is not at the brewery but at a hotel in the city somewhere.

 

The Sunday release is at a hotel but they're selling cans during GH on Saturday.

 

Really looking forward to these cans but unfortunately Ill be out of town for the weekend. Anyone nice enough to #pickitupformebro? Just looking for one six pack. Any help is greatly appreciated, worried this isnt going to last past the weekend!

 

people trading it.

 

Given that this beer has never been canned and people love it, there will most likely be a line. IMO, this area lacks top notch DIPA's, so when something like this comes out demand is always increased. Just get there 10-20 min before the places opens if you don't want to wait long. That whole setup they have in the entrance really doesn't help the lines move. It just becomes a giant clusterfuck of people getting their pours, merch, 6 packs, etc. The space is small though, so I guess I really can't complain.

I beleive that it is essentially OTWOA, but with Mosaic hops instead on Falconers Flight. I'm sure the price of a 6er is about the same. Doubt it will be any less than $17.

 

$17.99 or $18.99 is my guess.

 

Called today $19.79 after tax. Ugh

 

Where's the hotel Sunday release? Unfortunately I am going to be out of the area on Saturday.

 

Wow. Custy up fellas!

 

Isn't that the same as OTWOA? $17.99 pre-tax?
