    Please post any details about the release and/or tastings of the September 3rd 2016 release of Holy Mountain's

    1) Anareta - Sour Ale Aged in Oak on Blueberries

    2) Aureum - Blended Ale Aged in Oak on Peaches

    3) Tide's End - Tart Blonde Ale

    How were the lines and allotments?

    **I passed on this current Holy Mountain release as we enter the season of Fremont and Goose Island Bourbon County Stout releases amongst many others headed towards the end of 2016** (will probably regret it).

    I sat out on getting bottles but showed up at noon and had pours of Aureum and Anareta in the taproom with some friends who did wait in line. Both were tart but smooth with great fruit flavor. I'm not sure which was better. I was very impressed.

    Tides End was bottle only. No clue how it is.

    Sounds like the Anareta keg blew already, but it also sounds like there are bottles of everything still left for purchase.

    I went down a bit after they opened. Line was still long, but at least it was moving. Still had full bottle allotments when I got in, and taproom still had growlers of Lush Land, the new Kiln & Cone, White Lodge, Helmsman, and they had bottles of Heartwork (limit 4).

    From what I could tell, if you showed up around 2 you would've had a short line and still gotten bottles.

    Sunday afternoon and there are still a handful of bottles. None on tap but there's still lush land, so I'm happy.

    By the time I left, I think they were down to just a little bit of Anareta left, so probably out by now.
