This is one of the breweries that peak my curiosity this year and I couldn't find any specific thread so here it is. I live in CT and would love to see local peeps discuss Homage's new beers and progress.
I go there before shows at The Glass House. Cool area that its in (grew up 10 minutes from there). The beers have all been really good. I'm not much a sour fan, but everyone who is says they have an awesome program. The IPA's that they are doing are really good, and the Milk Lizard is an awesome stout. Seems like they have progressed with every new beer they release.
Homage is awesome. I'm there every other week or so, and have always been impressed. They're growing slowly and consciously, which I appreciate. The last time I was there, the bartender said they're scouting out locations for a Pasadena location, which should give them more exposure. They also can great cold brew coffee. Hit me up if you're ever interested in trading for crowlers,
Been there once and dug it. Tried a few times to trade - unsuccessfully - for bottles. Any info on how large the bottle releases are ... or guidance on best ones to seek out?
Bottle releases, mostly sours, are infrequent and often announced the day of. Hoppy beers can be purchased in crowlers.
Fruited stuff seems to be announced in advance, it doesn't seem that rare for them to just release bottles of a random saison unannounced though. I think their batch sizes are increasing. Chat Flou was big enough for 3pp, Kriek Homage saw an online sale on Craft Beer Kings in addition to in person sales at the brewery.
