BA Blackbeard

I asked again when I was there and they said, "soon". Which has been the answer for approximately 3 months haha. But I'm gonna take a guess and say it will be released by next Sat. I don't think they will have it by tomorrow though. I base both those statements off nothing except intuition.

 

Looks like this one is coming this weekend.

Awesome. I will be picking up some for sure. Been waiting months for this release.

 

Anyone going that gets extra bottles please bm if you wanna do a trade for some...got plenty of MOAS, FW 15, Parabola, Sucaba, Event Horizon, Uncle Jacobs, BCS and Hardywood GBS to offer up

 

You and I must have crossed paths over there at some point. Hit me up when you plan to head over this weekend...depending on how busy it is over there, I might be helping out around the brewery (if Jamie and Mike need some) but it would be nice to finally put a face with a BA name. =)

 

Actually, I usually just stop in to grab a few bottles or a growler, and have never really hung around long enough to socialize. So we may have crossed paths, but odds are we have never made contact. I actually was there today to pick up a bottle of old nuptial (amazing btw), but I will be heading back on Sat for the BA BB. Ill let you know when.

 

That was a typo, I meant growler. Growler only, from the 2011 batch. I'm drinking it now, wonderful BA barleywine.

 

Rather disappointed I missed Old Nuptial, but the in-laws wanted to have dinner downtown and...

Saturday sounds like it's going to be crazy. Definitely send me a quick BM once you're headed up that way and I'll try to keep an eye out.

 

I love coast. Pulling out the nuptials right before the ba blackbeerd when no one was looking. Hope there is some left sat.

 

I doubt Nuptials made it past today.

 

If anyone is comming to the Old Fabbits Foot release and want to mule some BA Blackbeard for me I will say thank you with some good brew.

 

Sounds great....BM when you get some!

 

Im sure. Just funny they pulled it out though

 

How crazy are we thinking. Their Facebook page makes it seem like it won't sell out til at least the Thursday tasting.

 

Well, I've already been contacted by people from NC and GA that plan on making the trip Saturday morning. I don't think they'll be lines beforehand and whatnot, but a crazy day for COAST is people constantly in-and-out. Usually, it's around 20 people (give or take) casually drinking their tastings around the tables. I have a feeling there will be quite a few of non-regulars making the trek into town and just scooping bottles up (especially without a limit). That said, this year's batch is double the quantity from previous year's batches so I think it should hold over until Thursday, but there's no guarantee.

 

If it did kick last evening, it will come again...

 

FWIW, Old Nuptial was on last Saturday too.
