    As I'm not a member of the RS in 2015, but did join for 2016 I thought I would start a new thread for 2016 members, so we can discuss what will be available to the new 2016 members.

    Here is a note from the membership notification:

    Here's a glimpse at a number of the perks you'd receive as a Reserve Society member in 2016:
    • Your choice of a Reserve Society-branded 32-oz. MiiR growler or leisure bag, plus access to other Society-exclusive merchandise.
    • Access to dozens of exciting beers from both The Bruery® & Bruery Terreux®, many of which are exclusive to Reserve Society members.
    • You choose which beers you want - and you can purchase multiple bottles of them.
    • A 15% discount on all beer purchased through your membership, at our Tasting Room, and at our Bruery Terreux tasting room upon opening.
    • Access to our anniversary celebration and exciting, exclusive events throughout the year.
    • Access to special growler fills and Reserve Society pours.
    The nine beers included with a 2016 Reserve Society membership are as follows:

    The initial package, available in January 2016:
    • 2 bottles of Mocha Wednesday™
    • Chronology Series™: 6 Months (2nd Edition - Wee Heavy)
    • Les Ronces (Boysenberry Sour Blonde)
    Available later in 2016, upon announcement:
    • 2 bottles of Black Tuesday®
    • 2 bottles of Barrel-aged 8 Maids-a-Milking™
    • Sour in the Rye® with Pineapple & Coconut

    This thread should be deleted as a new one will be started by the mods for 2016, just like it was this year....and last year....

    I did want to have discussions on what to expect in 2016, but didn't want to raid the 2015 thread.

    I'm a new member in 2016. What events are typical for a given year? I'm in NorCal so I'd have to plan well in advance for any attendance.

    Mid-may (likely a Saturday) - Anniversary party
    Late October (usually Tuesday & Wednesday) - Black Tuesday release party
    Most months, first Monday of the month - Society Member Monday

    Apart from those I don't recall there being any consistency on other events. This year they did a Clean Barrel Tour and Tasting in March, and just did the Sour Barrel Tour and Tasting last weekend. Prior years had barrel-aged festival, bottle shares, and some other low-key events. The blending tournaments are by lottery so no guarantee on entry to those.

    This year's welcome package included a calendar of anticpated dates so I bet you'll get something similar in the next few weeks.

    Considering both Room For Me and Los Ronces appear to already be bottled and nearly ready to go, I'm pretty stoked for 2016 to get started. 2015 started so damn slow, I'm glad they seem to have worked out that balance a bit better. I mean, am I crazy to hope/think that those 2 beers are going to be better than anything released by Terreux in 2015? (not there was anything wrong with a lot of what they put out in 2015.)

    Edit: BTW what's the latest on the opening of the Terreux tasting room?

    Personally, I'm a huge fan of Room for Me and very excited for Les Ronces (but I haven't tried that one yet). 2016 is definitely shaping up to be an exciting year for me too!

    The Tasting Room at Bruery Terreux is now slated for mid-2016 opening. We made the decision to push it back to prioritize other expansion related projects and allow us to give this project the appropriate level of focus when the time is right.

    Cheers,

    @mattolesh, will Room for Me be available for RS members or is this a HS exclusive? It sounds like it will be an amazing beer.

    For the other hoarders, this is our included beer list:

    21 beers, including:

    Three bottles of Mocha Wednesday™


    Plus two bottles each of:

    A New, Mysterious Hoarders-Exclusive Black Tuesday® Variant
    Chronology Series™: 6 Months (2nd Edition - Wee Heavy)
    Scotch BA Poterie (8th Anniversary)
    Les Ronces (Boysenberry Sour Ale)
    Sour in the Rye® with Pineapple & Coconut
    Mélange #13
    Mélange #15
    Wineification™ IV
    Barrel-aged 8 Maids-a-Milking™


    @mattolesh - Is it safe to say the welcome package for hoarders would be:

    3 bottles of Mocha Wednesday
    2 bottles Chron Series
    2 bottles of Les Ronces

    Am I missing something else? I felt like we had 9 bottles last year but I could be wrong. Hopefully its two bottles of Room for Me!

    Also are the Melange's really Melange's or are these the new hoarders cuvee's?

    Did we ever get an email saying what the initial package was?

    @JoshBeerNow - Sorry, but I can't share the little I know yet. I can say that the most each Society will see in the initial package is 4 for RS and 9 for HS. We're still waiting on a couple of the bottles to tell us they're ready. Everything is tasting great right now, but we want to be 110% sure that we're not rushing something out the door. Plus, I don't want to steal our marketing team's thunder and risk putting out inaccurate info now, so I have to plead the fifth on this one.

    There are two new Melangé releases as well as two Hoarders Cuveé releases on the 2016 calendar.

    No. At least, I'm not aware of an email with the specific details on the initial package.

    Cheers,
    Matt Olesh
