T-25 Question

That's weird, cause it's right at the top of their facebook page, and was posted 2 hours ago.

 

Went to to the brew pub this morning to get my bottles and have lunch with my family and my friend's family. Everything went smoothly, although our table service was lacking.

Russian River has got these special releases down to a science. I didn't even worry about the fact that I couldn't make it until today (Sunday). Any brewery that doesn't run special releases like Russian River does (fairly large production numbers, metering, bottle limits) should be asking themselves why they aren't.

 

My homeboys made the trek up today. I think I have some T25 at home...

 

You will not be disappointed.

 

Do you think they will have T25 and Compunction on tap all week? I want to make it up some night to try without cracking open much bottles. I plan on reviewing a bottle of T25 tomorrow during the Cowboys game though. Cheers.

 

Heaven on earth is sipping a Compunction and T-25 side by side. Compunction is better on tap, but T-25 is bottle conditioned, so who knows how good it is going to get.

 

I didn't ask specifically about how much they had for on tap, but one of the waiters made an off hand comment that they had plenty of T25 on tap.

I would assume Compinction will still be on for a while. Last batch was on for at least three weeks. The Compunction is drinking great right now.

 

Thanks dude. I will try to venture out there this week if I can to try the nectar of the gods.

 

No, I haven't checked it out. I'm in boycott mode from it.

Whispers-how many CC's did he get?

 

No problem man. I can even swing by and check to see if they're both on tap later in the week if you can't make it right away. Just let me know.

 

Thanks. I appreciate it.

 

My bad I just saw it. No mas.
The Compunction is a thing of beauty. That beer was flat out delicious. They seriously need to bottle that stuff. Glad I was able to drink some today.

 

Didn't even think about asking if there were any bottles available, as I was there today. I'd love to see Compunction bottled, it's just freakin' fantastic. The Toronado anniversary beer was great too--I felt that it just got better and better as it opened up.

 

I believe he only got one, because he didn't figure out the two line system quick enough, but I bet his cellar is online!

 

Update - she gave birth today! She had a single sip of T25 yesterday while we were eating. The power of Russian River!

 

NICE! Please tell her that the guy behind her wishes her family the best! I guess the twins tasted the T-25 and they were like " Lets GTFO, I'll meet you out there and lets grab some Pliny the Younger 6 months later"

 

That's crazy... I was a few people behind you guys. I was the guy with semi-long hair wearing a black hat and black basketball shorts. I was wearing a Reserve Society sweatshirt until it got too warm for it and walked it back to my Lancer which was parked basically right across from the pregnant lady and the first guy in line. Congratulations pregnant lady! Cheers!

 

This thread is none of my business but I would also chime in to congratulate the parents and wish the child best.

 

Russian River has contributed to a lot of baby making over the years... Testify.

 

so now that the release weekend is over and it seems a bunch of people (baldo, rraphael, random people on facebook from out of town) walked out with ~6-12 bottles at a time, and on all of those days the bottles lasted several hours to the point where there was no line to get them, what are your thoughts on how rare / how hard to get this was?

i know, i know: panic. omg panic panic panic
