Carton Brewing (February) 2016

There should be an * on this line every time Augie says it that reads * original post may sometimes be updated as certain beers sell out/become avsilable.

Wed Irregular Coffee was still available and 07750 was not. Now if you look it up they updated the original post on Facebook so unless you go back and check it the update does not pop up as a new post from the brewery with the updated beers.

 

@augiecarton Wanted to have Dub cans at my wedding in late March. Seeing theres a 2 case per person limit right now do you think ~50 days of age will impact the beer that much or should I just wait until closer to the date and grab a couple of 4 packs at a time over a few visits. Asking because I know there are usually much lower limits per person on Dub. Probably only need 2-3 cases.

 

If you did not get any, you didn't try that hard. they were around for 2 weeks.

 

Kind of hard when you travel for work. I do appreciate the fact they made it last so long though.

 

IDIPA was a great beer! Hope we see it again.

 

Anyone know if grape swisher will be in cans? I know they posted release for next weekend. Wondering if it's draft only. I know orange was draft only last year but with all these new cans I'm holding out hope.

 

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I am correct in assuming the labels with bar codes will be distributed and the ones without will be brewery only? Thanks!

 

IMO 077 holds up extremely well. Drinking a can that's almost a month old now and it's still one of the best IIPA's I've ever had.

 

Is that your Augie impression.

 

Can't wait for the rest of these to be released.

 

To add to previous comments, each of the Dubviants is specifically draft only (previous to now) at the brewery and the bars associated with each style. They did these on IPA day last year. The kicked handle was Galaxy, IMO my favorite. Nelson was up there, too.





Personally, I'd love to know which of the dry hops are *not* in standard Dub.


PS That Superego label is awesome.

PPS 07750 cask was stupid good.

 

Had to laugh at this ("almost a month old" holding up extremely well) but I guess that's what it has come to.
There was a time when a month old beer was considered "fresh" but i guess no longer.
And I would hope a DIPA would hold up far longer than that. I had a 3 month old 077 last night that was still very good.

 

That is ridiculous (sorry to the person who typed that). Haha ALMOST a month old, like how often do we even get our hands on a beer that's less than 4 weeks old at a store? Now you HAVE to wait on line at a release to get those day old beers.

 

God damn. This 07750 is crazy good. Going back for more tomorrow if it's still available. This is absolutely outstanding

 

It's quite pungent.

 

I'm so glad I was able to convince the wife to hit up Carton on the way to her work holiday party (rescheduled 3 times). She loved the 07750 which made my buying 4 4pks happen without any eye rolling. Can't wait to crack some cans today.

 

i wonder if they will end up canning all of those over time. i'm especially looking forward to 07871. soooo dank.

 

Agreed. feel the same about 07747

 

Man, I gotta go there for IPA day. Was there today and for the first time legit enjoyed everything they had on there. BDG still isn't my fav but Grape Swisher was nice, albeit not at all what I expected, Canyon is refreshing, 07750 is elite, Sit Down Son has totally grown on me. Great job Carton, keep it up. Forgive my ignorance, but what day is IPA day?

 

IPA Day is early August: 6th/7th...here's the FB post from 2015:

"Thursday is IPA day and we're celebrating by taking over our taps with the 0'dub variants*: 077-07302 Warrior, 07750 Nelson, 07712 Centennial, 07732 Cascade, 077-07006 Sorachi Ace**, 07701 Apollo, 07747 Galaxy, 07740 Simcoe, 077-07871 Mosaic"
