Boneyard Notorious TIPA

Anyone know if they are filling growlers?

 

They've never filled Notorious before.

No growler fills this time, either.

 

I was told by one place that Boneyard requests that Notorious not to be sold in growlers, but I guess some places just do it anyway.

 

Since Boneyard themselves fills growlers of Notorious (and everything else), that seems like a suspicious claim.

 

I got a 64 oz. fill at the brewery last May for $20.

Yeah, Bob's in Seattle doesn't serve pints, but consistently has RPM and/or Hop Venom on tap, and is always sent Notorious when it's available. Boneyard doesn't seem to mind them doing growler fills.

 

Don't kill the messenger, but that's what I was told.

I have a feeling that they might prefer no growler fills so more people can enjoy it, but I doubt they actually require it.

 

I'm not sure how it's handled in Eugene, but I was been told by my Point Blank rep that Boneyard would "prefer" that the beer not be sold to stand alone growler fill stations. He didn't mention anything about regular bars filling growlers, so I suspect it does have something to do with spreading it out so more folks can enjoy it. FWIW, I've been told the same thing about Barley Brown's Pallet Jack and Fork Lift as well.

 

I'm hoping that their expansion is going to make getting it more of a regular thing.

 

How often are they brewing Notorious right now? Anyone know?

 

I was going to go to Chucks after work today but they said they are only selling 16 oz pours and I honestly dont think i should drink one of those and then drive home...was hoping they would fill a 32 oz growler...well, i hope another bar i go to when i am not driving gets a keg one of these days i guess

 

They always do half pints.

 

my feeling is 3 or 4 times a year.

 

I wish it were once a month.

 

Just got tapped at Pine Lake Ale house in Sammamish.

 

Do what you can do to get some before it's all gone again for awhile....bus, taxi, designated driver. This beer is just frickin awesome. good luck.

 

I am trying my best...but it just might not be good enough

 

I was told twice a year by one of their employees.
And about the 'no growler' thing ... yeah, I was actually told that as well. The way it was explained to me was that Boneyard doesn't want them selling growlers of notorious/suge, and they'd get cut off if they did.

I think that's pretty suspect though, as these bars tend to make more selling it pint by pint. I can appreciate them trying to keep it on for a day or two so everyone gets a chance to try it though. Otherwise a-holes like me would show up with 5 growlers on the morning they tap it lol

 

On tap at Brouwer's. Go get some!
