King Henry

There are a ton of people trying this beer everyday and it becomes available on the shelf every once in a while.
besides, it hasent been brewed in three years.

 

I am sure Goose will make both beers again, under a different name. Using the information re: buffalo trace distillate vs true PVW barrels. They have the space and time to do it.

Cheers!

 

You are wrong, they will not make the same beers again. They will make different beers. If they are the same beers with different names people will want to merge the reviews. They will be different beers so we can have more ticks. I expected more from you James.

 

You got the general meaning of what I said but yes I failed you Kzoo. For that I am sorry.

 

If they make them again they will be called
2 Rare
King Henry II

 

I'm fine with the one and done. I just hope what ever they put out next is just as amazing!

 

Now now, King Stephen succeeded Henry I. Of course, if GI wants to get really nerdy they can release 1141 bottles of Empress Matilda (since that was the only year in which King Henry's daughter controlled the country).

 

Drink one now. It's best fresh, imo based on other barrel aged English style barleywine. You can save the other one for a special occasion.

 

Cool info, thanks for that.

 

I'm with this guy, except for the more part, I'd love to acquire some to begin with!

 

I mean, it just wouldn't be a GI thread if we didn't have one of these posts, amirite?!

 

You keep sticking it to the man, I'll keep enjoying their world-class brews.

 

Holy cow man - good history on your part.
I skipped out on history in high schoool.
I always said what was in the past should stay in the past .

 

i wouldnt be surprised to see them re-release some of this at clybourn this november like they did with vanilla last year.

 

At sixty bottles of vanilla compared to hundred of King Henry that isn't a real release.. its a teaser.

 

So what you're saying is, if you want a true PVW bottle buy the family reserve in the next year or 2?
Thanks.

 

it's all subjective. they're all "real", since PVW is just a brand name. but if you want the exact stuff that has won acclaim for the past generation, then i'm guessing yes, PVW20 now, and PVW23 soon. PVW15 is already all buffalo trace. these three are all labeled with "family reserve".
