    Memberships open until full or Dec 31, which ever is first. Some additional information below (here is the link to the product and FAQ):

    • If memberships fill by the 31st we will offer the ability for 2016 members to purchase 2 Resolute variant sets for the 2016 Release, help us get the word out and fill the remaining spots!
    • The merchandise item for 2016 members will be a vessel from Shine vessels.
    • We are adding a Horizon draft line at the brewery that will have items such as Resolute/variants, single barrel sours and other beers throughout the year available exclusively to 2016 Horizon members both on draft and for fills. Anyone with the Horizon vessel will be able to fill that vessel, meaning you can have your trustee fill for you and ship. The line will be pouring as product is available.
    • We've added online pickup scheduling as well as a picking system that will provide 100% accuracy with pickups and provide documentation for trustees when they pickup to help sort out orders when picking up for multiple people.
    • Final (planned) schedule for 2016 Horizon adds an additional 11 releases (including the Resolute variants) to be available for members. As always, these may change but it is what we expect.
    As always, if you have questions, just let us know! We don't anticipate making any changes to the 2016 package but will always take feedback to see if we need to adjust for 2017.

    Cheers!

    Adam

    Maybe, maybe not :stuck_out_tongue:. I know last year when you announced mezcal milkshake if we got to a certain number of members, I pimped the shit outta horizon society.

    We are looking at some other items that will just be pre-order for things like Teku's and shirts for 2016.

    Horizon members only line and growler fills is genius for local members. Were I in the state that would be enough right there(hopes of second resolute set) to sign me up. Will probably be signing up again regardless in the next few weeks.

    First timer here! Soon as i tried Resolute(HH) I had to join. One of the most well rounded BA stouts I've had all year! So damn good. Looking forward to 2016!

    Would be curious to know the total number of membership slots for this year. Don't think it was mentioned.

    The max memberships for this year (2015) and 2016 was/is 500. I don't think 2015 sold out and this year if the limit is not reached by the 31st then the count will be whatever that number is on Dec 31st. And don't expect Bros to provide final membership counts

    I don't think any of my trustees re-upped...oh well, they're loss, from what I've heard, 2016 is gonna be BIG...I've got to get down to pick up more bottles for 4 other folks now that can't get there by the end of the year, not my original trustees, others from private beer pages that just couldn't get to the burg that are out of state. Plan on heading down, probably after the holidays and enjoying some beverages with Adam and crew.

    So, count me as one of the people mildly disappointed by the horizon society originally. I had no plans at all to re up, as I joined on blind faith that brothers was a legit brewery, and was not overly pleased with the first batches.

    Enter resolute.

    I'm now signed up for 2016. Resolute is easily one of my favorite stout ever. What an absolutely, ridiculously phenomenal beer. Complex, absurdly drinkable, and my favorite new beer of the year by a country mile.

    Looking forward to next year, as I think brothers have learned a lot.

    I'd love to sign up, but am 3hrs away. Really enjoyed Resolute day, but can't get there to pick up my stuff in a timely fashion.
