Troon Brewing

Totally beside the point, but there’s something fantastic about “gardenstatepkwy” liking a post about a bucolic drive with no tolls. Serendipity.

 

Hahah. That’s too funny. Actually I chose this screenname because it was generic (and a generic representation of NJ) - and I was lazy. Fact is I’ve never lived anywhere near the Parkway. And that’s probably a good thing Near the Turnpike is a different story...

I’ll have to agree about that drive though. I work in Princeton and making that drive both to the farm and then down to 95/295 was pretty to look at. Looking forward to doing it again and again.

 

Similarly pleasant as a fellow (former) RutgersBeerGuy to get one from you!

 

Wow...

That's some expert level f#$kery if true.

On a side note, Illegible Metal Font was great!

 

So every December I have to go to an all day seminar. Most days it is usually held at the Hilton in East Brunswick. This year, it is being held in Princeton. I immediately check google maps to see how far it is from Brick Farm Tavern-18 minutes. Awesome, I now know where I will be spending a looooong lunch. Oops, Brick Farm is closed on Monday and I am crushed.
This beer life is such a rollercoaster.

 

Here we go again with the "not open TOMORROW" stuff. Seems.... cryptic. Lol.

 

Sure does look like the side of Kane's van in that pic too...

 

Oh shit. Shoobies, swimmies, surf emoji.

HYPE?!

 

I'm lost. Can someone translate?

 

Common terms related for being "down the shore" which is approximately where Kane is located. Given the color of the can -- which is the color of Kane's van -- it could be possible that there will be a Troon and Kane collab dropping on Saturday.

 

Thanks, I appreciate the enlightenment. I'm not from around here...

 

Or they could be brewing together today

 

Or alluding to the already existing Kane oceanic naming convention? That pic does look like a Head High....eitherway, good sleuthing guys.

 

Im assuming release this weekend based on them being closed this weekend.

And I guess, they were closed 2 Fridays ago as well...

 

Bartender at Brick Farm today said a Passion Fruit IPA and an Orange Creamsicle "shake" will be the next 2 cans released by Troon. He said he wasn't positive about the shake one, but the Passion Fruit was coming up.

Don't think either of those have to do with the cryptic Kane van IG photo from earlier tonight.

 

Maybe Alex and Tom will be down at Kane tomorrow to plan a beer? Or brew a beer? Or who knows really?

I know Mike Kane stopped by Troon months ago...

 

If there's a Kane and Troon beer coming out and it ISN'T brewed at Kane, 90% of us are gonna be shit outta luck when it comes out.

 

yeah i know mike stopped in after port omna day as after i left kane i stopped at troon and sure enough mike was there chatting with alex so figured a collab would happen at some point but really hope it's a stout or dark beer for their collab

i imagine they have already brewed whatever it is they are doing and the release will be saturday and more than likely it'll be released at kane and in larger qty then Troon can produce

 

Then they passed and didnt buy any. There was an OPEN crowler on tbe counter and 2 crowlers left in the fridge when I walked in. I asked for a sample and then asked what the limit was. I was told there were just two left as a couple walked in. I sajd that I would take just one so that the couple came in behind me could purchase the other. Did I want both after an hour and fifteen minute drive there, absolutely. Am I a giant greedy douche, apparently not.

 

St Peter will definitely be bringing that up when your time's up.
