Bruery 2016 RS/HS Allocations

I don't see how anyone could be mad with the timing of when the Bruery puts the second item up for sale. I'm not mad I have a vacation planned for next week and now have no bag to pack with. Its a secondary item that has nothing to do with the initial package. That's just my opinion though, obviously others feel different.

They still had all of the cards at the Society desk this past weekend when I was there, so who knows when they go out. Although if you go to the tasting room you won't need it as they can look up your account by name.

 

I think the difference is that part of your benefits for this year are tied to the item. So perhaps if they said "You wouldn't be able to pick up any of your beer unless you have your bruery bag to put it in for at least 3 months", then perhaps it would effect what your choice was for the item.

 

I maxed that shit to do my part to keep it out of your hands.

Also, shipped eight cases recently and gonna be shipping eight more in Feb. I have a serious problem in that I'm already at 91 bottles...

 

Well said

 

I was there last night and the cards were still at the society desk.

 

They did this last year and there were no issues that I am aware of. Also considering they have confirmed that they will be doing a bunch of small patches now that the pilot systems are up at both locations, I don't think it will be much of an issue this year. At the end of the day though, the good stuff always goes fast and the crappy stuff seems to stay on for years.

Yes and yes. Both are super fruit forward. Les Ronces is jammy and tart, but I would have liked a bit more sour to it. Room for me was amazing. So fruit forward and the natural tartness of the nectarines really comes through. I wish they would let us buy more of that beer.

 

I had Les Ronces last night, a lot of fruit like jam. pretty consistent in bottle compared to on tap. I like it more than oude tart with boysenberries. I hope Room For Me trickles down to RS.

 

I found Les Ronces to be sourer than Room for Me.

 

With the limit at a low 3 bottles for Room for Me, I would bet Hoarders would like a second chance before it ever went down to RS.

 

I'll have to drown myself in Highland Park occupied space bottles to get over my nectarine cravings.

 

That was really fantastic, huh?

 

Being RS last year I would have agreed, but now that I'm in HS I disagree. I want it all to myself, and you lowly RS people will just have to do without.

 

Of the current howler fill options what would you get yours filled with.

 

Either Mash & Grind, OT w/Boysenberries, or Juggling Walruses.

 

Yeah I like it a lot, its got nice funk and fruit. Better on draft though with more carbonation, should probably sit on the bottle a while to let it condition more. Check out the HPB thread

 

Oh yeah, I check out the thread. I drank one immediately after I got it, gonna let the other one sit for a while. Thought the fruit really shined, and I don't always care for the fruited sours.

 

You finally get it now!!!! I mean if we don't hold this over them then what's the point of being a hoarder

DANCE MY PUPPETS!

 

Short and sweet review: buy them.

 

I maxed that as well to do my part to keep it in HS only. You're welcome.
