Kane Brewing (2019)

On the way over, does anybody know how much there is or how the line looks?

 

Also, any thoughts on the new Reef? Wife is near there and might ask her to pick some up

 

I’ll answer my own question. No line, probably 2-3 rows of a pallet of troon left. Donno if they have more in the back or something.

 

i highly regret letting my wife run out during our daughters nap to run errands... saw their post too late!

 

They still have both. Though said they said sea stares back again was going quick and likely wouldn't last the day.

 

did we get a sell out?

 

had the troon collab Sat, I enjoyed it, haven't had the new reef yet

 

I’m drinking Reef? right now and this is a rare miss for me from Kane. I had a nice nose at first, but the flavor just fell totally flat and off putting for me. Hints of pine, cattiness and generic citrus, and too dry with some hop burn.

Thoughts?

 

Completely opposite ,first IPA for them in a whole I really like .

 

I seems to be a 50/50 split on the new Reef. I have opened 1 can and I was in the group not head over heels for it. I felt I got some astringency/aspirin type taste. It was good at moments but bad at moments. I have a can left I think so I will see how it develops.

 

I enjoyed the last two Reefs? I had more than the first one of the three cans I kept. A little muddled when I drank it super fresh and maybe a bit too cold, but I felt it opened up a little warmer and after ~ a week.

 

Anyone have thoughts on Skeleton Coast. I didnt get any on Sat, I just have too much beer. Workers I talked to in the tap room said it had lots of Pineapple notes

 

Anyone know if sneakbox cans have made into other stores besides Wegman’s yet? Looking in or near Bergen County

 

I got pineapple and coconut. Tasty beer in my opinion.

 

Relying on a stagnant appeal come September/October/Eventbrite time...the intricacies are apparent: whiskey drenched fruit with vinous black currants, tart ripe cherries, and a candid Belgian charm

Amidst the top in one’s class: The anniversaries are a forte that seldom disappoint given the balanced convolutions and potent depths of wonder via roasted black licorice, molasses, caramelized brown sugar, grained oak, nutty-cocoa beans, and assorted spices (e.g. clove, nutmeg, anise)

Hindquarters present coconut, and vanilla seasoned yogurt with more plush plums, raisins, prunes, and figs. Perceptions continue via buried apricots to red apple skins to humid red grapes. A charred tobacco and a honey graham/malted breadiness taper the corners while the ensemble endures with toffee, leathered wood, and some earthy peppered hops

A sensible feel with moderated heat to guideline: rich and sweet but not suffocating or chomp-y for consideration = Another vigilant blend and sound addition to the anniversary series




…patiently waiting for the fermentation platform

 

But what do you really mean though?

 

Ah yes, simply marvy

 

I think Kane needs to start to spread the wealth on the retail distro cans for the sake of turnover... just left Wegmans in Hanover, which was flush with 6 foot deep shelves of sneakbox, head high and overhead (a wonderful sight!)... had to be ~8 cases of each on the shelves, more in the back I'm sure. Not that they are "old" per se, but these were all from 4/13-4/15, so nearing a month on the shelves with so many left to be sold... tough balance to figure out, but I'm sure they'll strike the right one.

 

I personally haven't seen anything older than 2 weeks myself, but as you said, I'm sure Kane will adjust accordingly.
