    @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 (except for Tuesday and Saturday) 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:


    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 (not available at this time) 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.

    ABSOLUTELY no drinking in the line or on the outside grounds!


    If you have to smoke, please step out far enough from the line so other people don't have to inhale your smoke. Thank you.

    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 during the same day even if they add new cans later in the day.

    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.

    Historical information on can/bottle releases:

    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.

    He asks if anybody has any suggestions for his spreadsheet to write to him.

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zWyBt7I2feobTsX5GcZvm91pn3fxuxEu-cI8oodXBi8/edit?usp=sharing

    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.


    A new spreadsheet link is below and was created (and maintained) by @jimmyfausto. Great job too.

    Dogs / Kids:


    Children, dogs and families are always welcome at Tree House


    Good Morning:

    This has come up several times in past months. According to @DigitalNate, Good Morning has not been retired.

    However all beers, including Good Morning, on this BA site that are listed as "limited" or in this case "rotating" and have not been released again eventually gets moved to the "archived" list, if not re-released over a period of time (forgot how long). It has nothing to do with whether or not it will actually be brewed again despite the red "This beer is retired; no longer brewed." which is added automatically by the site. This line sometimes confuses people but disappears when the beer is moved back to the "current" list.


    Shuttle bus:


    If you find yourself parked in the lower lot, we now provide shuttle service that runs thru every 5 minutes or so...now you don't have to exercise to get up that hill (although some of us could use the workout). :stuck_out_tongue:

    Besides, it's way too cold and hard to carry your boxes down the hill in the winter. A welcome addition to the brewery. :slight_smile:

    There were 998 replies in the February TH thread. My prediction is a decent chunk less than that for this month as Charlton continues its transformation into a more chill beer destination. I say <800 replies with perhaps a bump around National Get Drunk Day (March 17th).

    Cheers!

    Case of Julius today. 6 total beers, 5 at a case limit. Really looking forward to my next trip to Charlton, whenever that may be.

    I think that's been a rumor every St Patricks Day and it's yet to be true, but who knows...

    Lets do some good in the TH thread this month folks.

    Patty is a female name.

    Paddy is the male.

    Lets make St Paddy great again

    There I go again, misgendering 5th century Irish Bishops like usual.

    And no silent to begin the day.

    Hmm I'd like to argue with this. After all, it is St. Patrick's Day. Patrick to Pat to Patty IMO. Or would you like Pattie with an IE?

    So I know I mess around a lot and say im tenting in the parking lot but Im on my way to Ft. Lauderdale for a long weekend so ive been following Funky Buddha and J. Wakefields. JW is having a big release and people literally were in line at 11pm last night. Cops came and made people leave.

    Come on TH folks, we're amateurs!

    Patrick is the anglicized version of Padraig.

    Padraig = Paddy

    Patricia = Patty

    Not to derail the thread any further......in Ireland it's Paddy not Patty/Pattie. However, I was once scolded by a teacher for not referring to our patron saint as Patrick. She seemingly though Paddy was offensive....

    Back on topic: Anyone try today's batch of Julius yet? The tweet Treehouse posted today implied that it was back at the Monson level.

    Secondary value of JW stouts is through the roof. If TH announced a bottled GM release in advance it would make a JW release seem laughable.

    For some reason, now that I can buy multiple cases . . . the beer tastes less “special”.
