    Be cool if we got offered a bottle or two of those vanilla stouts.

    I wonder if those that did attend the parties get the option to buy a second bottle?

    There’s like basically no way to effectively track who actually bought one or not

    (this is me wanting a second one)

    My thoughts exactly. (This is me not having purchased one IP).

    Anyone had OF GC recently? Was curious how that was drinking.

    Anyone open a ‘25 Morning Vibes can recently? I popped one a few days ago and that guy was a straight up sour mess. I hadn’t heard about issues but my can was definitely infected.

    I didn’t buy any but my buddy said his cans of MV and Horchata were both “infected messes.”

    Haven't been on here in ages but can confirm horchata and morning vibes are both infected. Emailed the brewery and they didn't bother relying.

    Can confirm both were off when I opened them.

    Horchata I was fortunate (?) enough to drink immediately, and had no issues. But a friend of mine bought both Nitro Morning Vibes and Nitro Coffee Shop Vibes from Tavour, and both were undrinkable drain pours. Total sour infected messes.

    Curious on the science-y side, why/how does beer spoil like that? Brewing process? Packaging process? Or just sheer luck?

    A thoughtful amount of infection

    had the same experience. Very disappointing. Shocked they wouldn’t at least respond to an email either.

    No wonder they wanted to dump it all on Tavour

    Hell yeah. If anybody isn’t able to snag this one, it is most definitely their own fault lol.

    Much like bourbon, the supply has caught up to the demand. It's a great thing for everyone.

    Wild yeast strains for one will do it. I’m sure there are other scenarios but when you’re a brewery that produces both “clean” and wild ales you’re always susceptible to infection.
