Founder's Harvest Ale

Thanks

 

Passed it by today, kinda hopped out right now.

 

For my south FL peeps, Palm Beach Gardens TW got a few cases today. $10.99 a 4 pack. Bottled 9/30/2014 and this is one delicious wet hopped beer!!!!

 

Bought a 4-pack today in Charlotte. Will have 1 or 2 tomorrow and if I love it, hopefully I can grab another 4-pack. Also grabbed 2 Great Divide Fresh Hop. Surprisingly Founders is the better value price wise.

 

It hit Winchester yesterday, Union Jacks and Country store has some- Country store is a 2 bottle limit and its 4.09$ a bottle.

 

Sitting on the shelf at a Total Wine in the SE VA area, I picked up a 4pack yesterday.

 

Haha the TW in the Raleigh/Durham area were selling it 1 bottle limit. What's the point? Plenty of other bottle shops had 1 4pk limit and some (Ridgewood had no limit)
By far IMO the best wet hopped IPA $$ can buy

 

yah, i remember this sitting on shelves for a long time last year. pretty sure i saw some into late winter/spring.

solid beer fresh, not so much after a month or so.

 

Yeah, it's odd to me that people seem to be clamoring for it this year when I saw it on shelves for months last year. It's a good beer but there are plenty of other IPAs available in NC that are as good or better.

 

love this beer. one of the best wet hop/harvest beers out there...but ya gotta drink it quickly. just bought two 4 packs.

 

It's the only wet-hopped beer that gets my money every year. Had one yesterday and it's flat out awesome.

People were clamoring for it last year too, just only for the first couple of weeks. Because as others have mentioned, it falls off pretty fast.

 

Hit Tuesday and Wednesday, OOS at Sams Bottle and Total Wine Durham.

 

When it's fresh, it's good. I'm hating there's an issue with GA getting bottles however. Looks like another week or so for us.. Would put it right at the 3-4 week time frame from bottling.

Boo!!!

 

I bought a whole 4 pack from TW today, so not ALL of them are doing that.

 

I had one yesterday. The ABV has changed since the last time I had it. Used to be 6.2 or 6.5? Now it's 7.6%. Not sure how long ago that happened. It's still a good beer but the only reason people are going nuts over it is because it's limited. Enjoy By is a much better beer and it's easy to get at the moment.

 

Hop City posted that they had some yesterday. Hopefully that means other places will get it soon.

 

Did I miss something? I thought they tweeted about VICTORY's Harvest, not Founders...

 

Yeah I worked at Hop City last night we do not have Harvest yet

 

Ooops . Speed reading.

 

I know what you mean. The TW in Durham was only allowing one bottle. The guy acted like it was KBS or something, don't get me wrong the beer is awesome but they are trying to get more profit. They charge more per bottle than what is listed on their website for a 4 pack, if you do the math. I went to another store and they sold me a full 4 pack. It truly is wonderful this year. But I am not going to give them my business when they are doing crap like that. I have been disappointed with that store several times recently, I was told multiple times they were getting stuff in and they never did. Also, you are supposed to be able to order beer online for in store pick up and half the time they don't honor it, especially if its a seasonal or limited release. Its a nice service for those of us who can't make it to the store because we work a 9-5 job and the beer comes out usually in the morning or mid afternoon. But, whats the point if they don't honor it for all of their beers?
