Green Man Maceo Release?

Just curious what where the other sour beers on tap after the Blueberry Berlinerweisse?

 

On draft, I found the rum to be very subtle, with the wine barrel having more influence at this stage of development. I did taste some rum influence but it was far from dominating my palate. I noticed, inside the brewery, that there were a number of Rombauer barrels marked "Maceo" and was curious whether they used barrels from that same winery in which to age the Berliner Weiss they served at the release. I wondered whether both beers spent time in Rombauer Pinot Noir barrels.

 

Nice so the Snozzberry rumors where true

 

Was batch 1 of Maceo also done in rum barrels?

 

Yes, the label description is the same on both batches. Six months in "magic" barrels and three months in rum barrels.

 

Nice. Guess I haven't looked at my bottle in a while.

 

Yep. The people two couples in front of us got the last pour and they very graciously allowed us to try a bit.

 

Did anyone ever find out what the guest tap was? One of my friends went inside and said he didn't see anything but Green Man beers on.

On a side note. Man that color on the blueberry berliner weisse was crazy.

 

Briefly, there was a placard up for a Petrus beer (I think it was the Aged Pale) when they were pouring the Berliner Weisse. They took it down at some point before the Berliner kicked but I never saw anybody order it.

 

I ordered it, still have zero idea what it was. I thought at the time it was a Green Man beer, but it definitely could have been from Petrus instead. It was too light to be a Petrus Oud Bruin, and its been a while since I've had Petrus Aged Pale, but it could have been that. I did think it was quite good though and rated it the same as I rated Petrus Aged Pale the last time I had it, so its possible that's what it was.

 

Same. Me and my friends belly'd up to the bar about 1:45, Had a beer and then went to the back of the line. Fast release.

 

guy at the front of the line had been there since about 5:30. we arrived just before 10:00 and were eight people back.

 

12:30 and was number 140 in line.

 

Looks like Bruisin' got a few bottles today. 1 pp.

 

Did anywhere else get a few since Bruisin' got some?

 

Anyone know the name of the brewery that the brewer is opening in weaverville? Or when?

 

Last I heard he had a name picked out but wasn't announcing it until it went through a trademark search. That was from a story I read sometime May-ish.
