Kane Brewing (September/October 2018)

I only went for pick up like this once and it was afternoon. I’m going with someone who wants to go early to get home early but I’m pretty sure it will be the worst time to go. Anyone done this in the past?

 

I did this for BA Sunday Brunch. There was a line from the back area to just where the picnic tables start. Took maybe 10 minutes. Grabbed a flight and drank it on line. Wasn’t bad.

 

Does anyone know what’s actually happening when they open early for pick up on Saturday or Sunday? Are cans, fills, and or pours going to be available?

 

Very much this. Though my favorite of the regular 3 changes from week to week. I also have an opinion that these breweries that only focus on doing sticker cans, even the good ones, lack the skill of someone like Mike Kane who has built three damn near perfect beers that are executed perfectly every time.

 

Man just had my first Galaxy Punch. Fantastic. Just a slight notch behind Blue Hotel which was an incredible beer. HH, OH, and Sneakbox (my fav beer itw) are all phenomenal beers. The fact that they can churn those out consistently AND create amazing sticker cans is freakin awesome. These last 2 stickers were unreal

 

So per their website Blue Hotel and Galaxy Punch are still available. A lot left? Can a friend of mine go grab some while we wait in the hopefully short ANTEAD line?

 

That might be for growler fills not cans, I know blue hotel cans are gone and I'm guessing galaxy are too but I could be wrong.

 

In the past when the opened early for some bottle sales I believe they did can and merch too just no pours till 12. Can’t remember About growlers

 

Is the indicators release gonna cause extra line early cause if so. Goddamnit

 

I don’t see there being a line at opening for Indicators (could be wrong?) but it’s definitely going to make the taproom even crazier this weekend.

 

You’re probably right. I forgot most people will wait so they can enjoy being there and get pours. Guess that’s not till 12. Thanks for the input. Cheers.

 

Would there be two separate lines - one for bottle pickup and one for the can release? Too bad they’re releasing a can that day. A lot of us who didn’t get bottles are likely staying away this weekend so the people who got bottles will get the cans too. Not a big deal really but just thought it might be nice to spread the wealth a bit.

 

Def separate lines. Botttles might be in the other building even

 

There’s another building? No idea. Sheesh I was just there last weekend too.

 

They released the can tonight, so there was no need to stay away. Wealth has been spread.

 

Yes, I simply meant I wish they did these two things on different weekends. As I said, not a big deal, just my two cents. Thank you for telling me I was was wrong though.

 

....okay.

I can't believe there is a chance that I'll wait in a long line and receive 2 bottles of beer - which I paid nearly $60 for. Beer that I most likely won't drink any time soon - opting instead to save it to enjoy with friends/family for a special occasion.*

Idk how wine nerds do it.

*No regrets, I'm glad to finally get a chance to try ANTEAD. Morning Bell really turned me onto craft beer back in like '11 or '12, and I have enjoyed so many Kane beers. Happy to finally get a chance to enjoy a beer that put them at a level of national recognition.

 

For the pickup today, do i have to print out the ticket or can i just show it on my phone? thank you!

 

Would anyone going this weekend be able to find out the number of sets for each? Curious to know what the total yield was.

 

in the past ive shown the receipt on my phone.
