Bells Mars DIPA

Truck chasers, start your engines!

 

If that's the bottling line in the brewery [yeah, I know - where else would it be], I wouldn't get too exited yet. Unless you go pick it up at the brewery, it's going to take a few weeks to get around the entire distribution area.

 

It will be September in my specific market. Picking up my six pack of The Oracle today or tomorrow though!

 

My question - why didn't they start with Mercury?

 

I'd definitely like to get my hands on this!

 

Really? Oracle usually doesn't hit until the last two weeks of August. Minnesota has been somewhat of a Bell's paradox when it comes to releases, but im still skeptical.

Holst's composition started with Mars

 

Seems odd. There was actually a mention of that composition on NPR the other day, and now I want to listen to it... while drinking that beer.

 

Where did you see Oracle here now?

 

It's coming into the warehouse I work at tomorrow. I'm not in the metro market though (but I have to imagine they're getting it too).

 

What you think at least $16 a 6? or more?

 

yes, that would definitely be my best estimate.

 

Really wish they would go down to 4 packs for these high grav. like this and hopslam.

 

ssshhhh, then they get to charge more per oz!

 

The full suite performed by the London Symphony is on iTunes for only ~$8 if you're so interested.

 

Better that than a bomber or 750. Founder's Dissenter IPL comes out tomorrow too, and it's about $.50/oz - compare to $.22/oz for Mars (if our $16/sixer guess is accurate)

 

I'd be perfectly content if not a single beer was ever sold in bombers again. I can't think of one thing that recommends them.

 

Wonder if it is going to be anything like this:

Seems to use a similar font on the label for "Mars"

 

Think that particular beer is retired / no longer brewed.......

 

Yessir - only brewed once.
