    Any details about the pre-sale released outside of it being 4/24?

    I'll be in Asheville in May and was hoping to place and order and pick it up then.

    I'm pretty positive Gold Angel will not be for sale until June or July. Where did you hear April 24th?

    Edit - Realized that you were talking about the pre-sale. I was told that the bottles would not be released until June.

    Go to their website and on the right hand side there is are two tabs. 1 is for the funkatorium and the other is for the Golden Angel pre-sale. All it says is "The online pre-sale of Golden Angel bottles will be April 24th!"

    If you watch that weird video that WW uploaded to their facebook a couple of weeks ago previewing this year's Funk Asheville fest, they show the Golden Angel bottle (or what I'm pretty sure is that). So that led me to believe that it would be released around that time (video says the fest is July 18th). But if the pre-sale is this week, I would think it would have to be released long before mid-July.

    I think there was a month in between the Red Angel pre-sale and release, so I'd expect it to be a similar timeframe. Maybe they are just planning on pouring Golden Angel at the fest, dunno.

    I wonder if they'll be pouring some at Hickory Hops - that's this coming Saturday.

    Heads up, fellow sour beer fiends! Golden Angel, the next in our Angel Series is available for pre-sale May 2nd at 12pm. Aged for a total of 10 months, this American Sour rested on a total of one metric ton of apricots over the course of its life in the barrel. Deep golden with a bright fruit haze and stone fruit tartness, this ale pulls inspiration from traditional Lambic fruits and showcases the depth and range of apricot flavors. Just like last time, no proxies, no holding and no shipping, no distro.

    That's the part that's killing me. I'll be in AVL 05/21 - 05/25. Have they announced when bottle pickup will be?

    I probably won't be able to make this one. Anyone miss out on Red Angel and want to setup a trade?

    Looks like pre-sale tickets on the 2nd but pick up on may 23 or 24 which is bad timing for me. Relatives in Asheville will actually be by us for Memorial Day. A holiday weekend seems like a bad time to release for locals since many people travel around the holidays. Wondering if the next one scheduled for July will be pickup the weekend of the 4th? Hope not...
