    Yes actually. They had mentioned, while I was there, that it would be on through the weekend. But taken off draft afterwards and only put back on for special occasions/events.


    No info there, but their 22nd anniversary is coming rather soon (end of August..not sure anybody really knows the exact date though) and I would be surprised if they didn't release a BASS or their DB BASS around then.

    Newsletter is out, info about DB Speedway

    We're turning 22 years old and we want all of you to help us celebrate! We cordially invite you to attend our Anniversary Party on Saturday, August 12 from 11am through 11pm. We have quite a few exciting features planned for this celebratory occasion! Make plans now to join us for the following:
    • Double Barrel Speedway Stout Onsite Presale Event (Limited)
    • We're offering party-goers the unique opportunity to purchase a bottle of this upcoming barrel-aged Speedway Stout release before it officially goes on sale on Eventbrite the following Monday.
    • Bottle Pre-sale is limited to One (1) Bottle per Person, as total presale amount is limited.
    • Presale ends as soon as limited presale inventory has been depleted. Attending the party does not guarantee you an opportunity to purchase a bottle.
    • In honor of our 22nd Anniversary, we will also be marking 22 individual bottles of Double Barrel Speedway Stout. If you end up purchasing a marked bottle, you win a prize!

    Bolded extra part since ppl tend to not read entirely and will jump to "zomg just onsite sales..wtf alesmith!?!?!? arggghhhhh"

    Why would the 40oz bottles be sent out for distribution? You should see 6pk, but the 40oz was online/brewery-pickup only.

    You may have answered this already, but I'm too lazy at the moment to go back and hunt for it: Have you had any sneak preview tastes, and how is it tasting if you have?

    Drove down to AleSmith to exchange my Rumskull bottles today. There was no one in A&S at the time, which always makes for a fun time. Bottle exchange was super easy. I think the difference in price between the Rumskulls and what I chose was $2. Headed over to BP for the Velvet pickup, which also went as smooth as could be. Hit up Urge for lunch and had some Velvet on draft alongside a solid burger. All in all an enjoyable afternoon.

    Hmm... maybe they didn't like the blend of barrel? Too hot? More QC for contaminants?

    I would to. Haven't been inside the tasting room for almost 2 weeks...so my absence cost a small slide in R&D and QA. My bad guys.

    They sent out an email and the post on their FB pretty much states nope. It was going to be a takeaway, so you would have had the physical bottle in your hands. Instead it appears they are going to do a small library sale of vintage beers.

    Wonder if this means the cask version listed among the beers in Rare Beer section of the Stone Anniversary Festival isn't going to happen either.
