Bruery 2016 RS/HS Allocations

You can sell your blood and underpants navy to pay for the extra bottles.

 

Chocolate Rain will not be coming on Tuesday. No guarantees that it won't be available the following Monday though!

I've also drastically cut back on purchases since I've been in HS the last three years...spent way too much during my first two years in RS!

 

yeah folks, remember, it's a leap year. I have to say, after the options have vastly improved in L.A. for my beer money, my Hoarders days of spending money on beer I probably won't drink for six months or until I have a big enough group to tackle said 750ml beast has drastically declined.

 

Same here.

 

I still buy too much but I'm balancing it out by drinking more.

 

I honestly don't know how you do it. Do you drink other beers besides Bruery beers? I buy sparingly and am still increasing my bottle count (at least 5 cases of older Bruery stuff at this point, maybe more).

 

In the past I've bought far too much beer I don't drink. Now I generally buy the beer I know I want and I know I will drink... so very, very few sours.

 

I am the other side of the same coin. Very few, if any stouts.

 

I don't even go for stouts too much... I like the anniversary beers and anything with "Barleywine" or "Wheatwine" attached to it.

 

I'm doing the same, great minds think alike

 

Has filmishmish been available to the public before the public release this Friday?

 

I think it was only distributed to Society members previously.

 

I keep the wife far away from my credit card statement!

 

eh. mine just drinks half the bottles and doesn't ask what they cost or where they came from. just, "when are more stouts coming?".

not sure which is better.

 

Public release this friday? I didnt see that anywhere, was there an email?

 

I wonder if it will be in today's tasting room email... From the site (maybe its a typo):

Allocation Period: February 22 - February 26
Public Release date: February 26

 

anything else being publicly released tomorrow?

 

I feel its only a matter of time before we start seeing beers like Chocolate Rain and Mocha Wednesday hit public release. I give it about a year.

 

I'm actually fine with that if they keep releasing variants like Rum, Port and Reserve BT to the Societies.

 

I would expect that, considering the production they are ramping up this year. I forget the stats they mentioned, but it's a significant increase of bottling. There's no way RS & HS can buy all that beer. I'm sure they will make more limited beer for RS & HS to keep them happy.
