    This month we will package Bourbon Barrel-Aged Troegenator! Initially released as Scratch #87, this barrel-aged version of our flagship Double Bock is dense, chewy, and captivating. After hibernating for six months in Heaven Hill bourbon barrels, Troegenator has emerged as a lush Double Bock with undertones of vanilla, oak, and toasted coconut amid a warm blanket of tangy bourbon notes. For this initial run, we will release Bourbon Barrel-Aged Troegenator in 750mL cork and cage bottles available at the brewery through the General Store for take-out as well as our Tasting Room for on-premise consumption. We plan to make this beer an annual limited release with availability in September and October at select beer retailers throughout our distribution footprint.

    God this sounds delicious. Wish it would hit NY distro for this run, but I guess I can wait until next year.

    Wow, a barrel aged beer I'm actually interested in. I very much enjoy doppelbocks and Troegenator was great. Too bad it's only going to be available in the area of the brewery :slight_frown:.

    The only bad news here is that I have to wait ten months to get my hands on it.

    Troegs is usually quiet about their special releases (i.e. splinter gold). Only info I can find currently is sometime in January.

    That sounds incredibly good. Jan/Feb breaks my wallet every year with the releases of Insanity, Hop Slam, and Nugget Nectar...now THIS!!!

    I was drinking a Troegenator for the first time in years (I've been out of town) last night and, when I did a search for it so I could "Had" it, saw the entry for the Scratch BBA Troegenator and was like, "I wish I could get me some of that." However, I'm not interested enough to drive the 4 hours to Hershey to get some.

    Another Cool Story From,
    Bro

    This is actually something I'd save up money to be able to trade for.

    I visited the brewery recently, and during the tour the group received samples one of which was Troegenator. I haven't had it in a long time and my second thought (after "Wow this is good!") was "They should put this in a barrel!" Glad to hear they did so; I'll definitely make the trip to the brewery to pick some up.

    Heading to the brewery today, anyone know if this is packaged yet?

    Anyone have any pricing info on this/availability info? I'd hate to drive to Hershey, PA to find that they're already out. Can't imagine the pricing would be too insane, just curious.
