Bruery 2016 RS/HS Allocations

Or maybe white chocolate with coffee beans. That has potential.

 

I tend to think that this is more likely but I hope I'm wrong.

 

Holy crap, I forgot to order. I'm sure this is the Bruery's fault somehow.

 

This was my first thought. But is a blend of MW and white chocolate a possibility?

 

I'm hoping for White Chocolate with coffee and vanilla added instead of a MW and WC blend.

 

So since they are both available. Just blended 50/50 MW and WC, not too shabby.

On a related noted the WC seems a tad acidic to me. Too tart to enjoy it on its own.

 

anything is a possibility. Whatever it is I don't think it will just be a BT variant without them putting a day of the week in the name.

 

Chocolate Rain doesn't have a day of the week.

 

Don't get me wrong.. i like Freckle. i dig the mole notes in that beer, but i don't remember that note in SHIT..still bought 6 bottles,but not buying a case.. If the Bruery makes Freckle again ill by more and it will cost me 5 bucks a bottle less.
By the way i sampled the same bottle of SHIT today(day 3)and the mole roasted notes have settled down. Really like it on day 3, its more balanced.. still not as good as past years in my opinion..maybe it needs some bottle age.. ill try it again in six months and see.. If not my cup of joe ill crack a SHIT on wednesday & drink it on friday.

 

fair point

 

Chocolate Rain is every day of the week dammit.

 

I think we're losing focus on the really important things which are that some people may have forgotten to buy their allocations or chose to get the bag over the growler as their free swag.

 

Well not bitching from me, my first year as a reserve member. I chose the bag because I live in florida although a growler would be nice as I will be flying out to visit for the next member Monday. Thrilled to feel like I belong to the secret squirrel club and I will pick up my 4 cases of beer....not a trustee for anyone ALL MINE. Does anyone know that since the new allocations will get posted Monday the 1st and I will actually be there can you typically just pick-up or buy the latest allocations the same day?

 

In general you should be OK to buy and pick up same day. The beer description on the store site will mention if a bottle can or cannot be picked up until later in the month.

Be sure to email [email protected] that you're picking up 4 cases. I was at the fulfillment center last night and they still have a lot of cases waiting for pickup.

 

I already emailed them, got the auto reply about them being closed today so I made sure to send the email early giving them a week heads up. I will be there 2 days anyway

 

Odds are split on being able to pick up the beers the same day they're posted. Last year, there were some months that the beers were available for pickup immediately, while others had a delay of a couple days (e.g., allocations were posted on Monday but available for pickup on Wednesday).

 

Normally, they post new allocations on the 1st Monday but usually the pick up window begins the next weekend. I think on the few occasions they did it same week was due to holidays or if the 1st Monday fell deep into the month (like the 6th).

I think the issue at hand is because they don't store all their beer in that little building so they are reliant on a delivery to begin disbursement. With the 1st falling on the Monday, I'd wager you won't be able to purchase Feb allocations & pickup that day.

 

me. ************ i forgot to buy my allocations. FUCK!!!

 

I try to always do it on the 15th after I get paid. You know that rule, "Pay The Bruery First" or some shit like that.
