Goose Island 2014 Beer Availability Calendar

Goddammit they killed Nut Brown again D:

 

No Pere Jacques this year, can't say I'm super sad to see it go. Happy to see the Matilda and Sofie stick around though! I'm interested in the Madame Rose too, haven't had a sour brown with cherry added to it yet.

 

Is there anyway beer fans can stop liking hobby beers and IPA's, so that brewers can make money making the other 40 styles of beer?

 

I thought we all just did NG runs to Kenosha when we wanted that

 

A lot of new beers! Pretty sad to see Pére Jacques dropped, though – probably our favorite GI brew after Bourbon County.

 

Guess this means I gotta grab all the Pepe from last year I can find.

 

Also Woodmans has a very nice grocery section and its got a very cute check-out girl me and my beer chasin yahoo friends have dubbed 'the woodmans babe.'

 

Lolita gone. Interesting.

 

312 Urban Pale Ale
Green Line Pale Ale *
India Pale Ale
Ten Hills Pale Ale
Endless IPA
Rambler IPA
The Illinois Imperial IPA

seriously, look at this - 7 pale ales, but no nut brown, pere jaques or pepe nero.

 

Lulled us into a false sense of security and then BAM! Well done ABInbev

I'm so sad

 

This was sarcastic.

 

I'm really confused.
I thought the whole thing behind the 765 ml bottles was break into the wine world?
Now they discontinue Lolita and Juliet, don't bring back Gillian and Scarlett, and overall after dropping Pepe (good riddance) and Pere, are really limiting their "Belgian style" selection.
They realize they can make more producing twice as much Matilda and Sofie (and their variants) I'm guessing.
Sofie Paradisi was fantastic, and Matilda Lamb IMO.

 

Or they already know that the next batch of Lolita and Juliet won't be ready for 2014 so they didn't even bother putting it on the calendar

 

The grocery selection is very nice. I seem to hit the check out without the very cute check-out girl, though

Also gone: Juliet, Halia, Gillian.

Maybe they'll get added mid-year... or maybe this is a two-year cycle thing.

 

I can't imagine that list is final. No Lolita or Juliet? No Halia or Gillian? Perhaps this year's Prop will be fruited?

 

at this rate, this years prop will probably be citra hop.
