    You're right, it's gone now. I swear to god it was there a little while ago, on the Taproom FB page, not the brewery page. Maybe it was posted accidentally and they deleted it.

    Oh well, my bad.

    So I just called the taproom when they opened to ask because I felt dumb for posting about the non-existent FB post and wanted to clear up any confusion and the very friendly lady who answered told me that they did not have any more bottles for sale at the current time, but that there were some more bottles which were awaiting labels and would be released in "the next few days."

    Bruisin Ales tweeted that Bootsy arrived today. If anyone gets an extra, let me know!

    totally disappointed in this limited, ultra limited release? Begs to ask.. Why? 300 bottles... Seriously? Really? Don't even produce the stuff in bottles if you can't do more than 300 with zero on tap. Stupid.

    I don't remember Maceo or Snozzberry being on tap either.

    Did Green Man use the pilot system for this? Two barrels seems like an awfully small batch to make and bottle.

    I want to say the first run of Maceo was less than 300 bottles

    You really cannot be serious......so now there needs to be laws for limited releases. "Stupid"

    Picked up 4 bottles of Bootsy & split a bottle with @JdoubleA @ the brewery. It is a damn good sour!

    It went really fast, we happened to be in the right place at the right time. It's fantastic too.

    I'm always up for trades.

    They didnt have it on draft - true - but anyone could've dropped in and purchased a chilled bottle to drink at the brewery - we did so around 7 PM and they started selling bottles @ 3.

    Yea, they sold out around 8 pm, I was there at 9ish. Actually, really my own fault, I had forgotten about the release and was wandering by, stopped in... missed out... Didn't see you there, but really just talked to the bartender heard what she had to say, than walked out.

    We dropped by at noon - just walked in and stood there for a good five minutes before the guys beside the boxes of Bootsy finally decided to ask us who we were and promptly run us off. We came back at 3 & picked up our brews - returned around 7 and drank for a while. We were lucky enough to have the time to bounce around.
