Cellador Ales

I joined also. I've only had one of their beers which was Caute. It was all needed to know these guys are the real deal. Certainly didn't taste like 1st year brewery.Just as complex as anything I've had here in the LA area.

 

These guys might very well kill it but I am seriously sick to fucking death of "buy now or cry later" with unknown brands. Depressing paradigm we have all created in our eagerness to not be left out. Long for the days when brewers had to prove themselves to be successful, instead of just waving a loss of privileges under your nose.

 

I dunno, I think Kevin's done a good job at proving himself and isn't using any sort of loss of privileges under folks faces since there will be a slew of public releases, hell, it's already on some store shelves like Vendome, Valley Beverage and the such. The membership isn't exclusive other than ability to buy first and a handful of beers that are lower in bottle count.

But, I mean, winning the Bruery home brew competition and getting it made in to a bruery release, as well as being part of the Masumoto crew is pretty much proving of oneself here.

 

I think he's lamenting the state we're in overall, rather than just Cellador specifically. I'm inclined to agree with him.

 

I get this. At least they had levels which started at like $150ish. I think that is doable for an unknown brewery if you look at it almost like a kickstart or go fund me thing. I wouldn't have joined for $300 but for $150, I will give them a shot. If I just bought 3-4 bottles of theirs to try I would spend about $50, whats a little more?

 

SARA already has a beer named Palimpsest. Interesting name choice.

 

Fremont and BL both have Darkstar

 

But bottle logic is technically darkstar november, and I think the fremont even has other words added to the full name.

 

Confuzzled sounds really tasty. I absolutely love those particular fruits. Curious to see if this ends up a member release or public.

 

Gotcha! This sounds pretty great then for being a public release.

 

Online sales are now live to members.

 

Yep. I'm vowing off the FOMO. Really excited for this to open up finally. Going to be stopping by

 

is this place open yet?

 

this weekend.

 

Solid offerings on tap and bottles for on site and To go yesterday. I enjoyed them all. For a new brewery It's amazing how good Kevin's beers are! LEGIT!

 

Everything I've tried from Cellador is amazing. Now I wish I signed up for the membership.

 

JBeertime. Email them! They might just accommodate you!
