Side Project / Shared (2019)

We don’t need to hype our stouts, Matt LeFevre does that for us.

 

I think this is hilarious. I hope others outside STL get to try it. I firmly believe it is one of top maple stouts out there. Hopefully you get to try it julianbooher.

 

I hope so too, but if coconut vibes b2 is any indication, I highly doubt I'll be priced in!

Adjunct stouts aren't really my jam anyway, more of a BA non-adjunct/saison boy generally.

 

He's trading (a portion of) his BBTs for 8th State now lol.

 

I smell Zwanze day release!

 

From the SP IG, looks like a DeGarde Collab is being bottled in 750 (maybe Floue Floue B2?) I think that is a safe bet for the $35 bottle price for Zwanze. Morning Vibes is less $ btw.

 

Doubt they'd change the label from black to white since Floue Floue was originally a black 357ml label so it's probably not that

I'd agree with @bread_c that it's probably that one they teased back in June. Baies and Arbres SP version maybe?

 

No Tuesday special release at The Cellar today?

 

Nevermind, they just tweeted out. Nothing today. Thought we had an established pattern here!

 

On another note, the black board at the Cellar says both Ambiente and Morning Vibes are being released on-site and to-go at both locations on Saturday.

 

And on draft.

 

Does side project rotate how they do their bottle sales? Like one will be just a line, one will be online ticket purchase, etc.?

 

It just depends on the beer. Larger releases they can do the online thing, most of the more in-demand beers are still small enough batches that online wouldn't work. Sulla Terra is a good example--a rather small batch, so they only announced to go release like 20 minutes in advance.

 

Got it. My in laws live in St. Louis but I’m not gonna put that on them to wait in line with my fellow neckbeards to get me a bottle. Was hoping they would do it for the morning vibes release

 

I didn’t know morning vibes was being released Saturday with Ambiente. I don't have Instagram and Twitter hasn’t announced that. Thanks for the update. Is it kosher to go to the cellar after purchasing at the brewery? I was always planning to line up at the brewery and the quantity won’t change that. It seems like there is clearly a lot of beer though.

 

If they don’t mark hands then you can. Just a heads up that the cellar is usually painfully slow moving just because of the logistics of the building and you have to pay tax there.

 

Yeah, I hadn't heard that about Vibes on either platform. Just noticed it on the board. Surprised the hell out of me.

I thought the same about the amount given how far out they announced the Ambiente release and that it's at both locations. Don't know about the Vibes given they didn't broadcast yet.

I was thinking about going to both places too. Just don't know how much of my day I want to spend in line, or how much my wife will tolerate me doing so.

 

Easier and quicker to loop back through the line at the Brewery than it is to get in line at the Cellar.
