Hill Farmstead 9/11 & 9/26 Bottle Release

Will draft fills start at 11am as well?

 

Hmm Flora, How you are missed..

Damn tasty brew, I'll have to catch the next release unfortunately.

 

i hope its even earlier!

 

How do these prices compare to prior releases ?

 

What is an appropriate time to head to the brewery?

 

prices seem in the same ball park... Flora was originally going to be 375ml and $10 but Shaun upped it to 750ml and $20 (I think due to issues with getting the new labels)... most releases have been $15 as of late tho... while $20 for 375ml of DB Damon seems a bit steep, I'm sure he could charge double that and they would still fly off shelves

 

Not sure if that was exactly the problem... they still have new labels, the bottles of Flora the CW members received had old labels because there was a printing issue. Either way, very welcome, and I think Flora should always be in 750ml bottles.

 

As early as you deem necessary. I wouldn't be as concerned as others have stated about it also being Shaun's house. Yes, his dwelling is on the property, but its off to the side and not where you'll be lining up. I'm also pretty sure they'll be expecting people earlier than ever before with the beers that are being released.

 

What's the policy with bottle sharing while in line or inside?

 

Not allowed.

 

Yeah only alcohol allowed is if you do a tasting (4 4oz pours), and then you need to be in the roped off area where the growler line is. The bottle release line for this summers releases has not been in that area.

 

Thanks

 

Plus DB Damon has spent, I believe, two years in barrels. That's a huge undertaking itself from an overhead standpoint. Count me among those pleasantly surprised that HF prices have remained such a constant through the last 12-18 months even as the demand for their brews has grown exponentially.

 

Are there any ideas on what the bottle counts are for each bottle being released?

How efficient is the bottle release line? Trying to figure out if growlers will be possible

 

Bottle counts are TBD day of I believe (depends on how many are in line at opening), except DBD will almost certainly be a 1 bottle pp limit. I imagine it will be a shit show and am hoping they will use some sort of wristband/number system.

 

CD7 and Being and Time really stand out to me. Although I would not kick out of bed ANY of those bottles !

 

I was more wondering total bottle counts. Like are there 300 DBD ? 1600 of others? Just trying to get an idea my chances of DBD

 

Yes, my bad. You were asking for bottle counts, not limits. That I'm not sure of.

 

I'm sure DBD and Flora Satsuma are really low counts and probably won't make it through the day. Probably wise to get there by 11am to snag your bottles, or else risk missing out on these two.
