    Posted on their Facebook page yesterday.

    The time has come once again, we appreciate your patience, and are excited to finally reveal the secrets we’ve been holding tight.

    This year, our tenth year - we’ve once again upped the ante, coming Friday, November 25th at both Perkasie and Peddler's Village taprooms we’ll be releasing 20 different variants of Ralphius!

    As this program has grown over the years, we’ve increasingly put greater emphasis on sourcing the most special barrels we can get our hands on - paired with careful foresight towards barrel and vintage blending opportunities. You’ll see these efforts reflected in the list below.

    Without further ado… your 2022 variants!

    - Coffee
    - Double Barrel (Grand Marnier, Mezcal)
    - Double Barrel (Scotch, Bourbon)
    - Double Barrel (Tawny Port, Bourbon)
    - Ralphius
    - Three Year Triple Barrel (Buffalo Trace, Sazerac, Blanton’s)
    - Two Year Boardroom Spirits Rum
    - Two Year Canadian Whisky
    - Two Year Cognac
    - Two Year Double Barrel (Heaven Hill, Buffalo Trace)
    - Two Year Double Barrel (Knob Creek, Buffalo Trace)
    - Two Year Double Barrel (Maker’s Mark, Blanton’s)
    - Two Year Double Barrel (Penns Woods Winery, Bourbon)
    - Two Year Double Barrel (Woodford Reserve, Basil Hayden)
    - Two Year Heaven Hill

    Can there be too much of a good thing?

    Apparently not. Sweet jeebus I hope I can some of those.

    More release info:


    The Black Friday details you’ve been looking for… we’ll be open 10AM at both Perkasie and Peddler’s Village taprooms for this year’s annual Ralphius release!

    The majority of this year’s bottles will be $20 and limited to either (3, all Two Year Double Barrel Variants) or (6) per order form. Base Ralphius will be $17 and unlimited, Vanilla, Coffee, and Cognac $20 and unlimited, whilst our singular Three Year Triple Barrel option will be $25 and limited to (2) per person.

    ALL 20 bottles will be available at Peddler’s, albeit in smaller quantities than home base.

    In Perkasie, as is tradition, we’ll be slinging free breakfast sandwiches in line and handing out beers for those who join us early. Afterwards, the usual 6 beer “beast flight” awaits.

    This year we’ll be joined by Ardana Pizza Co., Hangovers Cafe, and Dough & Co. as well as two featured sets of live music from The Groove Merchants and The Wonton Soups!

    If anything happens to remain after the weekend, we’ll throw it up on the online store Monday at 9AM.

    We can’t wait for you to join us for this always momentous occasion… see you soon!

    FYI, I arrived at 12:30, and only the Three Year triple barrel and the Two Year Woodford/Basil Hayden were sold out. Still stacks of cases of everything else. They were closing the back room and moving orders to the bar.

    I haven't drank any yet, but I went with picking up bottles of Regular, Coffee, Maple, and then a few various bourbon variants. In past years I haven't been as big of a fan of the other liquor barrel types.

    I am bummed that there was no Cinnamon Chile version this year. That has been my favorite variant.

    Had to work this year so couldn't make the event. Ordered a couple variants yesterday but am still working through last year's stash.
