    Lucked out and managed to get a membership. I wasn't in town for Monolith b1, but a few of my friends got to try it and were really impressed. Loved Type II, though.

    I'm excited to see what these guys whip up for the members. Anyone know when the first bottle release is going to be?

    I’m the opposite and was able to grab Monolith and missed out on Type 2. Neither of these were barrel aged so excited to see what they put out. Monolith was thick and a little sweet, but hid the 15% well. Besides their bottle releases, all their sorbet sours have been stellar.

    I also saw June as an estimate in one of their comments after the release today.

    I've not heard of these guys until this thread. Looking over a few of their offerings, I'm definitely interested now. I see they're releasing beer tomorrow. How're releases generally with these guys? Don't want to make the trek down from Charlotte to miss out on the excitement.

    Anybody had Piece of Future yet? The reviews seem to be pretty incredible.

    Haven't popped mine yet, but I will probably be downing it within the next couple weeks or so.
