The Bruery (2021)

How’s the 2018 Red Wine BT? The 375 format is calling to me but if it went sour then I’m out.

 

I had one of the 375's last month. It's great.

 

Cracked a 10,11,12 and a 15 Reserve over the summer and everything has aged great.

 

Finally opened Chew On This. Definitely sour. I know there was some discussion earlier. Is the Bruery acknowledging this and replacing bottles or refunding?

 

I was hoping this too, though I'm pretty sure they confirmed in this forum that it totally sold out shortly after release

 

I have two bottles left

 

I’m pretty sure they had it up last month.

 

I have a melange 3 2012 that just went to the top of my TBD list

 

Yeah I have been waiting for maple and it hasn't shown up since the first release/increase in limits.

 

Same, even though they did say it sold out right away. But we’ve heard that before only to see them show up a year later.

 

I sent an email about it but did not receive a response back. As a member for years I thought I would get contacted at least

 

Same here, we sent separate emails on Satisfies and Chew on This, and got a reply on Satisfies but not Chew

 

I got a quick response. There's a new batch, so definitely reach out again.

 

Has anyone heard anything about the ticket price disparity credit for 2020 anniversary party ticket holders?

 

Finally got my bottles of Big Blue. I liked it. But, it's just a little too over the top. Since I wasn't sharing it, I split it up over, what ended up being three nights. The first night I got a lot of blueberry. But, it was also quite peppery which threw off the overall experience. What was interesting, over the subsequent two nights, was the blueberry became less prominent and the maple came more and more forward. I enjoyed it more on the last night.

I also dug out a bottle of Blueberry Pancake. Overall, that's just a more balanced beer. Sweet blueberry with a touch of maple and that classic BT back note.

 

Hey everyone just wanted to address Chew on This — we recently had some unexpected issues that are currently being tested to provide you with the best tasting beer as originally planned. We have caught issues in the past but have been able to correct prior to release. While we did notice some quality issues with Chew on This early on those were caught and addressed. If you have a beer that has soured or just doesn’t seem right, please reach out to us at [email protected] so we can investigate. We’ll gladly offer a replacement at full value.

 

I was at the Fulfillment Center this weekend for a pickup and asked about the credit. Just took a few minutes to straighten it out. They emailed me a credit that I can use in a future order. All is good.

I would encourage people to speak to someone at The Bruery during your next pickup. Or if you are out of town, email them.

As always, the fulfillment center did a great job. One of the reasons I renew year after year.
