    A buddy had to swap out a broken Great bottle after they had "sold out" and I think Steve told him they held on to some for beer week. I thought they did something similar with special bottle/growler pours last year, but I could be mistaken.

    They've released select vintage bottles throughout the past couple SDBWs, possibly going back further than 2011, but I don't remember. The quantities were generally very limited, usually not even a full case on any given day if I recall correctly.

    Yeah, I saw this. Was unsure about posting because it's probably going to be gone super fast as is. I wonder if this will be worth it. Some peche beers I love, others are very underwhelming. I wonder if this will even last the day tomorrow. I won't be able to make it out there until a little bit later in the evening.

    I don't have any interest in this beer, and get couldn't get bottles on a Tuesday in Alpine if I wanted to, but I saw this posted to their FB and first thing I noticed was, no bubbles.

    Rather have it flat, than for it to taste like feet (ahem, Chez Monieux)

    Same dilemma here. During rush hour, too. This is a difficult, difficult decision

    I really do hope this is good, but I'm afraid. So very, very afraid.

    Are you going to head out there? If someone goes out there early, please report back on the quality! I know this sounds insane, but whatever.

    Counted 27 cases at 12 bottles per case.

    This destroys Chez Moneiux
