DC Brau - OTWOA

I think $20 for a sixer is a racket.

 

Technically 17.99 - but when a case comes to 72$, that's a little cray.

 

It is a bit expensive but it's better than the $10 bombers they used to sell. If they don't ever lower the price, I hope they at least start distributing it locally (cans).

 

Well...minus the first release of it after they re-opened in August. Got there at 3pm, right as the last couple cases were being sold- to a friend of mine of all people, who was gracious enough to give me a couple sixers from his haul. That was a rare occurrence for sure though, since OTWOA hadn't been released for longer than usual due to the closure.

 

Anyone know if they sold out yesterday?

 

I believe they did. We left about 1:45 and I didn't see the stack of wings any longer. Not sure if they had any in cooler.

 

mm yeah, now we are getting into Hopslam insanity price levels. I think I paid $16 last time and I was happy with that because I got a fresh non-floaty batch and it was awesome. However, its always best to wait for confirmation of a good batch before you spend that much imho because if you have a problem, DC Brau will want you to return it to the brewery for exchange or refund and aint nobody got time for that.

 

I can confirm this batch is absolutely fantastic.

 

It may seem high but there are many other DIPA's priced similarly, it's just they are in 4 packs for $11.99 instead of 6 packs for $17.99 (Double Jack and Hercules to name a couple). I think if DC Brau sold OTWOA in 4 packs for $12 nobody would be complaining. There really are not a whole lot of DIPA's sold in 6 packs and I guess Breweries are scared that the high price tag might scare people away. But OTWOA sells out within days anyway so the price is not deterring sales in that case.

 

Besides coquet, how are people liking this batch?

 

definitely notice a difference compared to past few batches. almost seems more mellow. can't quite put my finger on it.

 

anybody have some for trade? i got some GBS if interested

 

Does it have any bubbles? The last batch, I got it maybe 4 weeks ago, was really almost flat. It was still pretty good, but I've probably bought 6cs of otwoa in my life, and this last one has made me skeptical of making the drive and paying the $ for this beer.

 

Just opened another can- definite carbonation issues with this batch.
