    @DigitalNate has been known to make occasional comments when speculation is not correct on this monthly thread.



    Cans:


    This week's canning schedule, not guaranteed:

    + Tuesday

    + Wednesday

    + Thursday

    + Friday

    We are packaging into cans on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday this week. Cans become available the day they are packaged, with the exception of the Tuesday canning run, which is available on Wednesday when we are open. Thanks!


    Pints:


    As we settle into our new brewery, the availability of pints will be sporadic and dependent on the crowd. If we are too busy it is not possible to maintain an enjoyable and efficient experience for takeaway beer and serve pints at the same time. Stay tuned to Twitter to learn if and when pours are available.


    Growlers:


    While we transition to the new brewery, growler fills are temporary on hold. Fear not - they will be back. They are a huge part of what makes us Tree House.

    New Glass 750 ML - $5 | 2L - $6


    Parking:


    Parking lots open an hour before stated open times.

    REGARDING PARKING ON VERY BUSY DAYS, PLEASE HEED THE GUIDANCE OF OUR PARKING STAFF. ALSO, USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN ENTERING AND EXITING THE PROPERTY. THANK YOU!


    Line:


    There is just one line, the can line! You may order growlers from the can line, when they become available at the new brewery. Our staff will assist you by handing out and collecting order cards for growlers while you wait for cans.

    We make every effort to keep limits the same, and this is indeed the case 95% of the time. On rare occasions when we believe it will be beneficial to visitors, we will lower limits to spread the love around a bit.

    ALL LIMITS POSTED ARE PER PERSON, PER DAY. NO SECOND TRIPS THROUGH THE LINE.

    ALL WHO PURCHASE BEER AT TREE HOUSE MUST PRESENT A VALID AND CURRENT PHOTO ID, NO EXCEPTIONS.


    BYOB:

    The beer you purchase at Tree House can be enjoyed at Westview Creamery on East Hill Road, and at BT's Smokehouse in Sturbridge.


    Nearby Bottle Shop:

    Yankee Spirits in Sturbridge, is the closest. It's close to BT's Smokehouse.

    Awesome Tree House can release spreadsheet done by @BeerTraveler33.

    In his own words:

    Feel free to remind me, @BeerTraveler33, to update this as I usually only update the file on my work PC and I forget to update the google doc.

    This is the spreadsheet that you seen cropped, cut, and pasted on posts. Full credit should be given to @BeerTraveler33 for creating and maintaining it.


    Another spreadsheet is below. I'm not sure who is the author but if you tag me and let me know, I'll give you the proper credit next month. Great job.

    And "honeydew" jokes that, no matter how lame or recycled they are, always make me laugh.

    Making my first trip out to the new place today. Looking forward to it, even if the line sucks.

    I'm now confident that a 7:00 arrival will only guarantee me a colder wait to go along with my allotment, and not a pour. Here's to bundling up! :grin:

    And I say that because it's a half case of Julius to go along with yesterday's half case of Green, for those of you not on Twitter...

    Posted this in October by accident ...

    And I don't know whether they just forgot to update but it still says "+ Wednesday" under the "Canning run planned but not guaranteed" section even after the Julius has been added

    Yea, there seems to have been a pattern if less than 1700 cases of a beer is brewed another one show up. I might just be crazy, but I feel like its something I have been noticing.

    I second the motion on Single Shot. I looked last night, I think (I could be wrong) it's been about 6 months since it's been released.

    So, a Wednesday with 12 Julius, 12 Green, 6 Bright and 6 Eureka...

    Charlton is a lovely development.

    How is everybody's liver doing since the uptick in TH volume and selection of beers in Charlton? It's wonderful to have a fridge stocked with so much libation, but I think the best part of it all is to be able to share these beers with friends. Especially the ones who have never wet their whistle with some TH goodness. No longer do we need to have the self hoarding mentality that only getting 10 or so cans in one trip could cause. Sort of like Gollum with his "precious"... And yes it has come down to comparing TH beer to the one ring to rule them all. :grimacing:

    Absolutely. I'm running low on Green (drank them last night since I knew I could get more today), but I'm pretty well stocked on Julius after picking up 14 last Wednesday night, so I'll be giving away the majority of the Julius from tonight's allotment.
    Kinda funny, I was drinking a Green while handing out candy last night, and a family came up dressed as the characters from Frozen...including their dog as a reindeer...and the father sees me drinking a Green, and asks if I've got anymore Tree House. I passed out the candy, ran to the fridge in the garage, and tossed him a Haze. :sunglasses:

    FYI that Bright replaced Eureka, so a total haul of 30. Not that that impacts it being a lovely development...

    We need to do a side-by-side of the Green you got today and the Green I got two weeks ago.
