    Hammerheart is one of my breweries of choice having been there for the first time last month. I loved it and found that all of its offerings were wonderful - high quality, super well made and wonderfully drinkable. The balance, mouthfeel and flavor profiles just all really work for me.

    I heard that Hammerheart is doing a bottle release! It's going to be hard for me to get there from Los Angeles!

    Can anyone confirm the release? Anyone going (and going to be willing to part with a bottle??) Should this get confirmed I guess I'll post in the ISO/FT threads. However, I want to make sure that this is all not idle rumor.

    Thanks!

    I'm not sure if I'll be there, but I'll keep you in mind if I do!

    I don't know if I'll be able to make it, but if I do and I can, I'll get a bottle for you.

    How's the price on these? I hope they bottle some Imperial Longship soon!

    It's weird they bottled a smoked beer as their first one, seems out of character for hammerheart.

    $20.99 I believe at Rapids Liquor. They had 3 cases at least, I grabbed bottle 9ish of the first case last night.

    Wow they were $11 at the brewery. Pretty huge markup.

    I haven't been since they first opened, but I'm guessing sarcasm?

    Either you misremembered the price of a bottle or this will sit on shelves. $21 for a smoked lager? No thanks.

    Yup, $11 at the brewery. And I like to think I'd try anything once, but $1 is more than I'd shell out for a smoker lager!

    Yeah was just a joke, hammerheart seems to make good beers no doubt but tons of smoked styles for sure.

    Hence I've never gone back (plus it's way up there). I don't like smoked styles.

    I liked things better when Austin was focused on Panopticon. Distribution to the PNW wasn't an issue then :-(
