Beachwood BBQ Beer Releases Thread

Glasses?
Wha...?
Beachwood glasses?

 

We can't tell you anything, DCgunman. You'll just post about it and ruin our chances...




What have I done?!?!?

Shhhhhhh

 

DC only wants Blendary glasses

 

those glasses are awesome. i'm still going to complain about them though.

 

Goes without saying. Isn't complaining about things the first rule of beer club?

 

I definitely enjoy my blendery glass

 

Beachwood's first glass merchandise?

 

Back from the LB location with a growler fill of my favorite Amalgamator. Wow this batch is awesome. The cask with Mosaic Flowers is even better. I see CitraHolic is on the horizon.

 

Holy freakin' carp the Beachwood Nine is outstanding

 

I hear BWSB will be tapping Vanilla Rye tomorrow & donating 100% to a good cause. I honestly hope they charge $20 a pour so they can make a sizable impact. Unfortunately I won't be able to make the drive but any given trip on the off chance I am sitting at BWBBQ and they are helping a cause w/ a donation I'm happy to support (PtY raffle etc).

Considering the absurd secondary value of the beer i am sure it would still blow in an hour or so. Dunno the what it will actually cost but for those of you who haven't had it, probably a good way to tick it and help the world.

 

Your pic for your profile is awesome. Never had BA Full Malted Jacket, does it taste like BCBW?

 

BA FMJ is a barrel aged wee heavy, BCBW is a barrel aged barleywine. Do you often find that wee heavies taste like barleywines?

 

All the time! I do think BCBW tastes like Mocha Wednesday also. Weird right? I've never had Mocha Wednesday either, I'm just assuming.

 

Did bottles of nine sell out?

 

Plenty of folks at SB this morning for Vanilla Rye with 100% of the proceeds going to the CA Craft Brewers Association. Looks like Beachwood is done supporting AB Inbev products. Good riddance.

 

Saw bottles of Nine still selling.

VR kicked in I think around seventy five minutes or so.

Has anybody had it both on tap and out of the bottle? I didn't pick up on a whole lot of vanilla. Is it much different out of the bottle?

 

The vanilla has mellowed out over time. When it first came out, the vanilla was a lot more intense. I had some around Black Friday last year on tap, from a bottle this Summer, and on tap again last night at Naja's in Redondo Beach.

 

So would you say that on-tap at Najas had mellowed out even more than what you remember from your bottle in the summer?

 

Gabe wrote an awesome letter about the VR stuff.

 

where?
