    Such entitlement.

    Basically, the way I see the Mash & Coconut allocation is.

    PS pays roughly 3/4 of an RS membership, and got 1/2 of the allocation
    PS pays roughly 3/8 of an HS membership and got 1/4 of the allocation

    Seems fair to me.

    But maybe being able to get growler fills of Mask & Coconut made this less of an issue for me.

    I just poured out a portion of a growler I didn't finish over the weekend! It was delicious but after a growler of buff bbl's I couldn't drink the whole thing.

    Mash & Coconut sure was far more of a macaroon taste than Bottle Logic's Stronger than Fiction. Though it's not in the same style but attempting the same outcome.

    I hope the coconut lingers longers than expected.

    For those wanting more Grey Monday, the site just let me order 3 more bottles.

    I get where you're going with the annual estimate, but PS isn't an annual fee. People can pick and choose which quarters they want to join for only $58.50. With that in mind, it's truly...

    PS pays roughly 1/5 of an RS membership, and got 1/2 of the allocation
    PS pays roughly 1/12 of an HS membership, and got 1/4 of the allocation

    All that being said, I'm a hoarder and this doesn't bother me. A lack of bottles (and the many future opportunities to re-buy) rarely seems to be a problem with the Bruery.

    @BruerJoel Do you know if and when you'll bottle Frucht Watermelon and Frucht Cucumber? Those seemed to be big favorites during the summer Terreaux event and it appeared that labels had already been completed at that time. Perhaps the labels were just mocked up for the event, but I'm curious if these are on the radar for 2017.

    Anyone feel like this year's Autumn Maple tastes a bit too boozy? Didn't grab a bottle, but had some at the tasting room and thought it was almost overpowering on that front despite being "just" 10 percent ABV.

    What's the turnaround time from shipper order placement to delivery for anyone who's ordered within the last 2 weeks ? Now with no tracking number or verif of shipment

    We'll have a lot of Frucht releases in 2017 but none to announce yet. We liked those treatments too!

    I have a friend that will practically buy every single Frucht: BeRazzled if that's ever bottled...

    Today, we're pleased to announce the third and final beer joining Black Tuesday and Mash & Coconut in the Fourth Quarter Preservation Society package - Frucht: Cherry. It’s the latest installment in our Frucht series of fruited Berliner Weisse-style beers. Known for a tart flavor profile and traditionally low ABV, our German-style wheat beer gains even more funky notes and natural earthy-woodiness from fermentation in one of our twin oak foeder vessels - the largest known to be fabricated in this country. Each installment in the series features a new fruit, or Frucht, if we’re Sprechen sie Deutsch. This installment has cherries added, which impart a bright, fruity tartness and elegant hue to the beer.
    ...
    Hoarders and Reserve Society Members will get advance access to Frucht: Cherry next week.

    @BruerJoel - Do we really have to enter our CC info now for a free purchase? I just signed up for the hoarders blending tourney and even though I wasn't actually buying anything I still had to put in a CC.

    Are all the Frucht beers as acetic as the yumberry? I opened that one and man, I like sour/tart/etc but that was rather much. (For reference, I had no problem with Mother Funker).
