    I don't know about all of you but I actually prefer UJ over BCBS. The only thing they don't have is variants of it. I would love to see some vanilla, coffee, cherry or original variants of UJ. Thoughts?

    I prefer UJ as well and love the way it's drinking right now. Could care less about variants, or lack of.

    Avery doesn't have the capacity. I would rather they come up with new limited beers instead of making variants.

    Agreed. You can always add the peppermints in the glass anyway.

    I wouldn't mind seeing some variants and I definitely think it is better than BCBS. Drinks much smoother - had them side by side just this weekend.

    I bet if they did it you might feel differently. Ever heard of the variant called Tweak? :slight_smile: I also enjoy it as it drinks right now but I also know what the guys at avery are capable of.

    All this talk about UJ is going to have me take a couple bottles out of the stash and put them in the fridge for this coming weekend.

    Tweak is Meph base, whereas Uncle Jacob is a completely new beer for them - just throwing that out there.

    Right now, I would just be happy with a bottle/glass of the regular Uncle Jacobs. I know I have seen bottles at a couple drinking spots/bars around town, but UJ is more of a beer I would rather drink at home, relaxed and able to sip slowly.

    A coffee UJ sounds pretty damn good to me.

    +1 Also if it's a production issue do a brewery only release like the good ole days.

    They can't even bottle Uncle Jacob's til later this year.... let's wait until they get into their new facility, then hit 'em hard to bottle tweak :grinning:

    I'd rather see tweak get bottled than have UJ coffee. I wish I had the self control I needed to save a few bottles though. Maybe next time I guess.:flushed:

    I agree; I would rather a bottled Tweak than a Coffee UJ.

    I'm pretty happy to see parrys pizza in castle rock is going to be a part of avery's tap takeover on april 27th. I guess they are trying to break a world record and make this the largest tap takeove in history. Hopefully tweak will be coming to me...
