Last I'd heard it was mad flat. Don't know if they're planning on trying to re-condition or what, but it's in limbo at this point.
That's really too bad. With it being so delayed I'm not surprised though. I figured it was a bad batch. With how good Gratitude is though I'd rather them just skip a year than release a subpar beer ala Abyss '09.
from their website: 4/10/12 Update: Still no progress, or guess on when it will hapen. Thanks for asking though.
That's sad news. Hopefully a little warm will do the trick. Last years took some time to carb up. Did they wax the bottles yet?
I dont think that the bottles have been waxed or labled. I know they had this problem with the original 08 batch, and they just rebrewed it. Im not sure how viable of an option that is now though, with it being almost June now. I think that around August or September is when the start brewing the batch for the next year.
probably the best option at this point if you dont want to wait. they sold stacked verticals at the last release so there should be some people with multiple vintages to possibly trade, although older ones are going to command some pretty rare bottles. trading for the last release was fairly easy though.
