Side Project / Shared (2023)

I’m taken care of. Thank you kind sir!

 

I get so much email that I barely check my personal account. Was scrolling through it tonight and saw I got the email. Wild.

 

it’s not really about whether a specific batch was put into barrels. they start with the base beer in the barrels (whatever they decide to pull - last time it was even vines recipe) and then add the coffee. if they do BA CSV again, i would think it would be a different bean just cuz they never seem to keep anything the same. but who knows.

 

coffee crawl in few weeks too

 

aka draft-only small batch BA CSV

i’ve never been able to make it for one of those but did get to try one of the base stouts at a StL craft beer week event at SP. that was a ton of fun! went through the whole cupping process and smelling and tasting various beans. essentially the same process the brewers go through when trying to find a bean to fit a beer.

 

D17 and BBT Rye 2020 pouring next weekend at Dark Embrace.

 

ISO D17 details

 

I mean, it has been awhile since we’ve had a coconut stout…just saying

 

I hope it’s hazelnut for your sake

 

Go home Cory, you're drunk.

 

ISO: Another batch of coconut vibes

 

Please tell me someone didn’t go to SP, buy 12 oz of OWK, dump it all into a mason jar and drink it two weeks later lol

 

Ah, the upstanding vial boys.

 

Hope it was worth the $80 they paid for it

 

It was, super good.

 

There is a backstory (supposedly) behind the mason jar if you read the comments of the accompanied Whiskey Hill reviews lol

 

Wth happened to the forum? Damn I can’t find this thread, thanks to @Luscious_Malfoy for liking my post and I came back thru alerts haha

 

I was lucky enough to get invited to join La Coterie this year. I am curious what the included bottles were this past year or the past couple years if someone has that info.
It isn’t about whether it is worth it to join, just curious of what I’m looking forward to.
