I stay fairly well tuned in to what's hitting and living in metro Denver get access to a wide variety of great beers, including most RR offerings. However I've been looking for Beat for quite a while. Is it brewed less often than Consecration and Supp or am I just missing it when it hits CO? Comments and advise appreciated. Cheers.
It's on it's 6th batch now. Last released at the end of 2013 (I think, I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong...) . Does not hit Colorado. Brewery only. $18-ish a bottle. Not insanely hard to trade for, but it definitely trades significantly higher than their other standard sours.
Last release was Dec 2013, case (12x 375mL) per person limit, brewery only, ~1000 cases total, $18/bottle. Lasted through the first day of sales at least, but not more than a couple days. Typically the wait between batches has been ~1.5 years, so I would expect word on batch 7 soon. Their facebook page shows some barrels identified as sonambic a few months ago (the base that blends to make beatification) fermenting pretty vigorously, so I think we'll hear more concrete details on Beat 007 soon.
