Was there a new batch released or something? I don't see anything in the beer releases section. If there is a new batch I need to know because I must trade for some. It has been too long since the last batch and I am having withdrawals.
Not a DONG, as while No Growler, it isn't Draught Only...bottles are still being sold, just that they stopped growler fills of it. OP, it is a new batch, released the other day. It doesn't appear in the new releases section as it isn't a widespread release.
Released Tuesday on draft @ $6/10oz and bottles @ $10/22oz. No growlers, unknown bottle counts but Alpine uses a 12bbl system.
Could have sworn his rant said no more bottles or growler fills, but looking at the website is says 22 oz bottles.
Oh - Pat is no longer announcing releases. You get little hints if you press them while there, but there won't be any warning when stuff will hit any longer. He does this so people can't plan trips down from LA or something, instead choosing to sell to locals.
Alpine has been serious business the past 2 weeks. APA/IPA's on tap at the pub today: Alpine Ale Tuatara Hoppy Birthday Duet Pure Hoppiness Bad Boy Exponential Hoppiness Very rare to have those all up at once. If Nelson were up it would have been almost perfect.
