King Julius Information

Sure, the USDA puts it all together

Shows how much more Citra and Mosaic has been planted due to their demand. Chinook pretty much holds steady, I think they make enough to meet demand, it's certainly not a hop people have to kill themselves to get.

 

Jesus, you ain't kidding about Citra... wow. That's a fantastic link, thanks for sharing.

 

King Julius is amazing, in fact, I would say it's world class when it comes to super hoppy beers. That being said, however, the taste difference between King Julius and regular Julius is minuscule. Tree House has been releasing large quantities of Julius every other week and I would much rather be in and out with 6-8 cans of the original than wait the 2-3 hours for when KJ drops.

Now Very Green on the other hand...

 

Hopefully when the new Tree House facility opens up they'll have more of everything available.

 

So a community of TH fans AND the brewery told you it wasn't going to happen, yet you still decided to make a new thread asking the same question??? Sometimes no means no, sweety.

 

"End dairy post" is my favorite new expression.

 

Well I think he was making a thread so that inquiring minds don't ask about certain Tree House products in the Tree House thread. It appears there is a negative visceral reaction to asking about King Julius, which would understandably seem odd to any new comers or people who don't lurk beer social media night and day. So hopefully they notice this thread before they make a mistake and get flamed.

 

reading comprehension at an all time low, truly

 

King Julius is great, but the hype around it confuses me. Is it because of availability?

I tasted two KJ cans at different times and both resembled the best freshness of a regular Julius can. Maybe my taste buds are hop-effed, but I honestly don't see the crazy hype everyone keeps creating around this beer haha

 

Oh please, you don't need to lurk beer social media night and day. Almost a daily basis TH is asked on Twitter about Good Morning, King Julius, etc.. Whomever runs their twitter and responds to people should be declared a saint by now. The same questions over and over, the same absolutely ridiculous questions. "I'll be there in 13 weeks, any idea what will be on tap? Good Morning?" - Give me a freaking break. Are people really that stupid? Minor speculation is one thing, I have zero issues with that. But go look at their Twitter account and tell me you don't want to slam your face into a wall on their behalf.

 

I don't check their twitter account often. I probably check their website more often. When I look at their twitter account all I ever see is a bunch of pictures of beer back to back to back. I haven't seen anybody here or there asking what will be on tap three months from now or anything like that. I really have no idea what you're talking about with all this stuff.

Speaking of Good Mornin', is there any particular reason why thats so limited also? I hear the Tree House IIPA's require so many hops or whatever but what about the Good Mornin'? Isn't it just a coffee, oatmeal, maple syrup stout?

Do you check their Twitter daily? Because the questions are ridiculous most of the time, including people who seemingly don't know how to visit Treehouse's website. The thing I've realized is, there's many people who don't know how to read. Honest.

Good Morning is brewed with Monson's Maxwell Road Maple Grade A Dark Amber Maple syrup. I believe it's a late winter thing, and there's only so much that goes around. Oatmeal? Not that I know of, could be wrong.

 

This should be pinned at the top of every months TH thread

 

Also, not sure if Tree House would ever admit to purposely limiting their products but there's a lot to be said about a special and limited release. If Good Mornin' was on tap 24/7 it would be amazing but it would also lose that special allure factor that has been attached to it. You can't have Christmas every single day of the week, there is such a thing as too much of a good thing. The way I see it, Good Mornin' is meant to be treasured and enjoyed on special occasions not consumed by the keg as a shelf beer.

 

No. I don't check their twitter daily. I'm just not in it that deep. I check their website to see what they have available so I can organize a shipment down to NC whenever I need but thats about it. I'm just not the type of guy that would check twitter all the time every day for anyone or anything. Honestly, I don't even know how to use the damn thing properly other than to check the front page after you click on the Google link.

OK.

 

Thanks.

Just learned something.

 

This was in early May. In about a month and a half we got something even better. Didn't think it was possible to improve on the King Julius but they somehow worked their magic.

Perhaps we'll get a VVVeryyy Green or a JJJuiceee Machine? Or a Very Juicy Green Machine. Even better.

 

i think they got that beer to be their 2nd-highest rated brew in 2 days after release, and it doesnt even have an official rating yet.
