Fremont Brewing (2020)

For those looking, the Fremont 11th anniversary is available in Portland at your finer bottleshops and markets. @jason_nwx, @vurt FYI

 

Including Uptown Beer Co., conveniently located approximately 40 minutes by bicycle from stately Vurt Manor.

 

That’s where I picked one up, too. I saw they used a pic of the Peated version and that’s not what I got, but I didn’t expect I would.

 

Talk about sending a message to customers. Never seen this verbiage before from any brewer. While I can understand, I think this is just too much, albeit easier logistically from there standpoint. I think the better option is to not allow customers to order more than 1 bottle per visit and per physical address.

 

I got a modern (2017?) magnum of the BA Poseidon at a beer bar in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho a couple years ago... Paid $26 for it. Could not believe it. Signed and hand numbered too. We drank it for a buddy's 50th birthday and it was every bit as good as I remembered from back in the day.

 

You don't do Floodland do you? Talk about heavy handed language...

 

But also in the lightest and most quaint font, so it makes taking the message that much easier!

 

I like that it forces you to actually behave on your own without a physical barrier.

 

I will go ahead and say Sky Kraken has blown my mind. Best deal in hops for the price in the market by quite the margin. It's world class.

 

Just had my last spice KDS Spice wars last weekend. Really hoping to get some more this year as it is a super fall beer!

 

Head Full of Fresh Hops freakin' slays. Wow.

 

How did we miss the fact that BADS was released 12 days back? Including the fact that there were magnums released? Were we drinking too many wet hopped beers?

 

Variants come later, this was just the base version.

 

Yes.

 

Just sat down to a 2016 spice wars, and man is this thing good. Not surprisingly the spices have faded somewhat but I’m still getting a nice amount of cinnamon/ginger/general “spice” on the nose, taste is there too no sign of oxidation. Great start to the weekend, cheers all

 

Does anyone recall what the price was for Brew 4000 from the online sale back in April? Thanks.

 

I think they were $30. Fremont's IG post doesn't list the price anymore.

 

Thanks. Noticed that as I was looking at a sampling of their beer release posts. Found it strange not to have that info. Thanks again.

 

Happy Friday all!
