Cycle/ccb bottle releases

Interesting. I thought last years was pretty decent. What changed?

 

Same here, thought it was better than decent actually.

 

I don't love pumpkin beers which is the only reason I said that. It was enjoyable but had no interest in drinking multiple.

 

Seasonal Creep was one of my favorite pumpkin beers, I'm sure seasonal sneak will be the same!

 

Fair assessment. I enjoyed the one I drank but have been sitting on the other one ever since with no strong desire to open it.

 

Seasonal sneak is awful, straight drain pour. Hard to imagine anyone drank it before it left the brewery because it is just bad.

 

No mention of Good Nightmare Mekong in this thread yet... Looks like it's being brewed now. CCB continues its coconut use, should be fantastic. Good night Mekong is probably the best collab from Ccb outside of LiL. Looking forward to this one. Would post a label pic, but don't know how to do that from the app.

 

I bought two bottles. Drank about 8 oz from the first, drain poured the rest. The second one was a complete drain pour.

Should've tried it on tap before spending $24 on bottles.

 

What's the deal with this? Will it hit distribution in both Florida and Virginia? Anyone know when it will be available?

 

Last time it was just for sale at CCB if I remember correctly and in VA.

It also was a beer to drink as fresh as possible. Saved one for awhile and wasn't nearly as good.

 

Per Cycle FB
"Pallet 6 (green) Bourbon Barrel-Aged Rye Imperial Stout, and Pallet 7 (turquoise) Bourbon Barrel-Aged Baltic Porter on sale this Wednesday at 8am. $25 per bottle, limit TBD. Cheers!"

 

How fast does this stuff usually sell out? I won't be able to make it down until that evening.

 

I may be completely wrong but based off the lower Facebook and Instagram Reaction I have seen I could see these maybe lasting a few days or more...I think a little of the craze maybe down because these will be Cycles 11th and 12th Bottle Releases this year already...that 25..30..35 a bottle adds up quickly for many

 

anyone have any inside info on bottle counts or how many barrels were used for these beers?

 

Its crazy the amount of releases they've had. With that said the bourbon barrel rye imperial stout sounds good.

 

No Cycle release has made it past the first day this year, locals will still flock over there like there's no tomorrow. The days of cycle bottles lasting more than a week are long gone.

 

Color me not-shocked you'd think that ...

 

You know me by now, im a ***** for cycle and BA beers

 

Fixed that for you.

 

I think these will last longer than normal depending on limits. Everyone I know that is normally all over this isn't as hyped for this as they normally are. Everyone just spent hundreds or thousands of dollars like a month ago. Will still sell within a day or two but I don't think you'll need to be there at 5:30 am.
