Bruery RS/HS Allocations (2019)

I think the release list year full on said “French toast inspired brown ale” which I thought would be Mash & FT but we never got that release.

 

The conversation above makes me curious if anyone wants to play a fun little game.... I'm interested to see how much variance in this thread on what we're sitting on.

Which society are you and how many bottles or cans of Bruery/Terreux/Offshoot beer do you currently have at home?

I'll set the bar reallllyyyyyyy low...

RS: 3 - 750s, 2 - 375s, 1 - can.

 

RS: I have 2 cases at home and less than 1 case waiting to be picked up.

So I’ll say, 20 - 750s, 6 - 375s, 6 - cans.

That’s just Bruery. I have about 2 cases of BL+other mixed BA beers. I’ve definitely slowed down buying to work down on my current stock.

 

Just finished first year HS and just made a pickup, so I'm flush!

Bruery: 201x750, 13x375, 28xCan

That runs the gamut from a bunch of White Oak up to the extreme stuff.

Terreux: 24x750, 29x375

Firestone & Dogfish make up most of my new small format accumulation.

 

That's what it was. Yeah, too bad that never happened. Really hope that doesn't happen to Rue'd Attitude. Although, M&FT (or whatever it was called) wasn't an allocated offering.

 

RS: A little over 60 combined Bruery beers. 90% are 750ml Bruery. I only have a few small format, cans, or Terreux beers at this point.

I do have over 300 cellar beers. Was down below 280 a couple of months ago. But, November/December is a rough period to go on a cellar diet.

 

I was looking forward to it being released because I was only PS when it was first released, but tried it and enjoyed it. It never released though.

But yeah, Rue’d not making it out would upset a lot of people.

 

I’m a hs and have about 60/70 bottles. I had close to 150 at 1 time. I would save beer for special occasions but I was piling up more beers than I could drink. Now I’ll open up just about any beer in my cellar every weekend. Drink 2/3 bottles with friends per weekend. My question for everyone that has a ridiculous amount of bottles how often are you opening bottles up? and why don’t you open more so you don’t have 200/300 bottles of beer lying around.

 

Yeah, maybe 1-3 per week.

Mostly because of planned aging. For example, recently bought 6 bottles of 11 Pipers to spread over the next six Christmases. I don't care if they get better, I'm just gambling they don't suck, because the Christmas beers are fun and festive. I've got a spreadsheet to track.

 

Currently I am at 6 - 750s, 1 - 375s, 9 - cans, all which have been delivered in the last month.

If we go back to pre-campfire my numbers would be more like-

30 - 750s, 10 - 375s, 25 - cans
Those had all been collected in the previous year as RS and two quarters before as PS. Not a ton but it was piling up pretty quick since that way all from a single "Bruery"...

 

31 - 750's, 2 - 375's, 3 - cans.

 

HS: 30 750; 6 375; 12 cans.

Drink 2 750s most weekends ( but a lot more than that this holiday season!). Occasional can during the week but rarely.

 

I usually buy a few bottles to age but I try not to age for too long because I've had some bad experiences with aging beers for longer than a few years. I do enjoy aging beers like you said to open up on special occasions. Just don't do it as often as I used to.

 

HS, probably about 250 beers, mostly 750s. I'm always like "wow, this beer looks phenomenal, need to max it" and then I open like 1 per week. Bonus: try storing all that in a 1 bedroom apartment.

 

Just opened my last PB&T. Tasting delicious. More PB flavor and sweetness than I recall. I suppose that’s from the cooling off of the alcohol. As it is now, not sure I’d want much more PB flavor. Hoping this gets brewed again.

 

Ended 2018 with 92 bottles/cans on hand. ( I'm not counting bottles/ cans that I have not picked up - its a small number )

Of the 92, 28 were from The Bruery or The Bruery Terruex.

1 - 16oz can - which I'm drinking now
2 - 375ml bottles
25 - 750ml bottles.

26 are from The Bruery
2 are from The Bruery Terruex

 

When is the archive sale?

 

I would assume this would begin at the usual Monday time of 10am PST.

 

Have any of you opened Meringue My Bell?

It's pretty tasty (glad it's a small bottle) but the amount of sediment is unreal. It looks like someone dumped frosting into my glass.
