More Brewing (2021)

Drank a Roaming Elephant last night. Hot damn is that a good beer. Usually with 500 ml BA brews, especially if I've had another drink (or 4 like last night), I only do 8 oz or so then finish it the next night. That went down so easily and was so enjoyable I was shocked how fast I blasted through it all. Made me temporarily regret not trying for the membership.

Also, More now being distributed down state by me. Well, at least there were a few cans on the shelf. Hope we continue to see more offerings moving forward!

 

More is coming out of the gate swinging with their bottle releases to start the year. They aren’t messing around.

Check your emails if your a Bairal member!!

 

Care to share for those who are not?

 

Sorry....

- Henna Double Rainbow
- Nettipattam Praline (Roaming Elephant BW with pecans and cinnamon)

Then next month will be BA Mehndi Special Reserve.

 

It sounds like Henna and Nettipattam Praline are going to be in cans. Per the email:
Nettipattam $18 per 2pk, Limit 2
Henna $22 per 2pk, Limit 2

 

good call. So is it 2 cans limit? Or 2 2-packs limit?

 

It’ll be (2) 2 packs....to answer my own question.

Four cans of each is a nice get. Easier to consume, especially when you have no one else to share with at that moment.

 

2 cans of henna > 1 bomber of henna in these times for sure. Very excited about my wife winning the lottery for the Bairal membership.
Memories of standing in line on the bike path in VP slowly fade away.

 

Looks like this round of More Mobile is going to have Rada and Petro bottles available for delivery (1 per household).

 

These just went live on Oznr.

 

Henna double rainbow sold out at both locations, the barleywine is still available.

 

Villa Park henna was showing up live at noon, then 10pm and now it is sold out. Seems like someone had fat fingers.

 

Another successful OZNR release.

 

Really, the end goal for OZNR should be an ebay like release platform. If breweries are embracing technology for limited releases, this really makes the most sense to hit the supply/demand point. Have a blind auction for bottles. You click on a release you want and enter the price you are willing to pay for a bottle. At the end of the entry period the platform would give the bottles to the highest bidders.

 

I know you're joking, but I think this would actually be illegal.

 

I'm not joking. It's everyone's goal to maximize profit why wouldn't they do that? Why would it be illegal? Since when did it become illegal for breweries to set their own prices for in house to go beer?

 

They would have to get an auction liquor license and it would change their status as a retailer under IL liquor laws as a retailer can only sell at retail prices. Craft brewer and brewpub licenses only permit sale for retail.

 

From the sound of it on Facebook, very few people got any. People are saying it went from "Coming Soon" to "Sold Out" in a single refresh.

 

They could just use the Toppling Goliath model and set the "retail" price for their stouts at $50 for non-BA and $100 for BA.
