    I don't think this has been mentioned yet. Went to the brewery yesterday and picked up 4 packs of raspberry tart and hometown blonde.

    Pretty bummed Hometown is a thumbprint now and 13 bucks for a 4pk at the brewery vs 8 dollars a 6 pack in 2014

    Strawberry Rhubarb = better than I remembered. A perfect balance of sweet & tart; bursting with flavor yet easy on the palate.

    I wish I had 20 more.

    You and me both - I only bought 1 4-pack assuming I'd be able to pick more up, but it sold out before I could get back to Wisconsin. Such a good beer.

    Yeah, I bought a case to share with a bunch of Iowans. I think I was able to have one of the bottles. Then I looked the next week and see that it's sold out everywhere and that people have literally 10+ cases :/

    I got 3 4 packs and the guy rang them up as 2 thumbprint 6 packs. I don't know if the 6 pack price per bottle is less. It was $17.50 for the 6 pack, so in theory $11.67 for the 4 pack.

    Picked some up for a little less than $11 a 4pk. My wife loves All there fruit beers and the 12 oz option is awesome. Wish they never left the 12 oz bottle from the past.

    Haven't seen anything on their facebook page but has anyone heard what the next R&D release might be? (Praying for vintage)

    My prediction is Vintage 2016 in August. Hopefully my source is correct.

    Vintage 2016 would be a cool, but disappointing release.

    I'll still buy it, but I'm hoping for something with fruit in it. Kick Vintage back to the fall.

    Why do you want it to be Vintage 2016? Neither previous release was anything that great, okay beers but not close to great.

    Brewery employees said at the first release that the next one would be vintage 16. Keep the fruits for when all the bears fans aren't here!

    That doesn't appear to be the consensus based on the ratings
    NG Vintage 2014: 4.46
    NG Vintage 2015: 4.36
    Cantillon Gueze: 4.33

    NG Vintage is probably the best American version of a Gueuze I have ever had.

    That said, I'd still rather have fruit...

    Gotta hype em up for trade value. I know plenty of people that simply give every r&d high scores

    Apparently you thought vintage 2014 was pretty great, gave it a 4.59 and said it blew you away in your review
