Funky Buddha Blueberry Cobbler

@funkybuddha

 

I enjoyed the Blueberry Cobbler OK in the tap room, but not enough to save bottles of it. Got 2 and traded both fairly quickly afterwards. I think it's good but not one of their best brews. Still waiting on the details for the BA Snowed In release...that one will be consumed promptly!

 

I had one bottle of this. It had a LOT of carb. Not surprised this thing ended up this way. It was delicious though. However, I drank mine only a month or so after release.

 

well that's Nib smuggler, BA Muy Bonita and now Blueberry Cobbler to all have bottling issues....BA Snowed In should be interesting.

 

You didn't read the fine print, " This bottle will self destruct after the expiration date. " The entire industry is moving towards this, to do away with hoarding bottles. You know who you are...

 

I had a bit of that in a bottle share and distinctly remember something being very wrong with that beer.

 

this is very unfortunate. I've heard of issues with some bottles, but that's nuts.

 

Opened my bottle today. Didn't explode or have a terrible smell but it was nowhere near as good as when I opened the first bottle close to the release, or when I had a bottle back in September. Tasted a bit flat. Would definitely buy another bottle or two next time it is released but would drink right away.

 

They sent an email to the imperial members last week that it's been delayed due to bottling issues..

 

Thanks for the info. I would also rather them sort out the issues and release it later as opposed to risking another issue. I remembered that I actually got 3 bottles of Cobbler and traded 2. The one that I opened in September a few weeks after the release tasted on-point.

I haven't had issues with any of their bottles (MBCP, Nib Smuggler, More Moro, Blueberry Cobbler) except for Muy Bonita gushed a little when I opened it but I've read about the issues others have had. I'm guessing the Floridian and Hop Gun 6 packs they are releasing are bottled on their new system and shouldn't have these types of problems (crossing fingers). I trust that FB will get everything worked out soon.

 

It seems they may be rushing things. This bottling issue definitely needs to be sorted. I love their beer and wish them nothing but the best so I'm glad they may be delaying the BA Snowed In until everything looks good. Can't wait to try that one.

 

I got this in a trade and it was infected. If my Triple Tripel's are infected or if they blow up, Ill going to be the fat lady bitching at the brewery for free shit.

 

The new bottling system is online and they have a release date for Floridian and Hop Gun of Dec 10 on the shelves here in Florida so we are all hoping that this is a fix to the problems they have had and they also announced that Nib Smuggler will be a 4 pack release so maybe everything goes to 12oz bottles and they don't use the 22oz anymore

 

Would not complain at all if they just released everything in 12 oz bottle 4-packs.

 

I thought this batch was terrible. Way too bready and not nearly enough Blueberry. I have a bottle left and after reading ghtis thread I've decided to take it back. I'm printing out the thread and asking for a credit. $12.75 is way too much for anything less than perfection.

 

You should take it back. Tell them to gurantee you a Snowed In BA

 

It was great upon release but now is fading fast so drink it up now
