LA Beer Week 2015

I think I saw boxes of that in the back during the BA GJG pickup last night, but I'm not 100% sure.

 

What's the price on the BA GJG?

 

$16 each.

 

I saw those as well. I'd like to get a bottle of that since it was so phenomenal on draft last time I had it.

I think the event last night was great. I will admit that I got almost no coffee out of the BA GJG on draft though. I've had the non-BA version previously and I remember it being more present. At first, I thought it was because I had Mocha & Cigarettes right before but another buddy came in and we made him taste the BA GJG first without any context and he didn't get much coffee either. Still a really solid beer though.

 

Yard Beer is our bottle release today!! Sour Ale with Herbs, Weeds, and Citrus. 5.5% abv. $12 each. 4 bottle limit. Bottles can be purchased at the back door of the brewery from 5-7pm today. We also still have bottles available of BA Griffith (1 btl limit), Slow Moves (8 btl limit), and Uncultured (8 btl limit). Beer!!

 

damn 1 bottle limit on BA Griffith

 

give me those btls of raised eyebrows already!!!

 

That beer was amazing. It was like a tart Lilikoi Kepolo with a ton of guava thrown in.

 

ORLY? Go onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

 

See y'all at HPB tonight! Anyone know how pours from those "rare bottles" they advertised are going to work?


And yes, Raised Eyebrows was the best beer I tried last night.

 

No Cherry ****z bottles left. Apparently they only have a case to last them the rest of eternity. Still have hopes for a Raised Eyebrows bottle but couldn't find out if it'll happen this week.

Oh, and if any BAers are at Hermosillo now look for the dude in the purple shirt with the bottle of Peche n Brett and say hi. His friends are running late so their loss can be your gain!

 

Raised eyebrows release is happening in the next two months, it will be on BPT like cherry ****z...ect. Regarding the next two days I am hoping for tomorrow to be fun juice and Friday to be lazy Susan..... But one can only hope. Bob has been beyond tight lipped on everything.

 

I was lucky enough to be first in line today. Scored a bottle of cantillon kriek and a bottle of peche n Brett. It was definitely a good night for me.

 

Those bottles were for sale? I figured they were just pouring them.

 

They were for sale. The Kriek went pretty fast but the Gueuze hung around a little longer. Peche n Brett was there for at least a couple hours. The Mattina Rossa went somewhat fast but there was plenty of Farm to Face to go around for a few hours as well.

To echo Andelliotsaid, there were boxes of Lazy Susan in the back so it will definitely be one of the next two days. I think the batch on tap tonight was Batch 1 (tasted excellent), and the bottles are Batch 2, but I could be wrong.

 

Both are Batch 1.

Batch 2 in the works, though!

 

Nice. You mind me asking how much they were charging for the two you picked up?

 

The bottles were for in house only. Prices were reasonable, kriek 750 was $35 and peche n brett was $45. There has only been one batch of lazy Susan. They won't be receiving the peaches and nectarines for another month or so.

 

Made the dastardly rush hour trek from Irvine last night to Hermosillo. Good meeting with @the_trystero and sharing a beer.

Hermosillo was pretty packed, and just as I got to the counter Saison Bernice kicked... so went with
HPB Lazy Susan - my jam as usual
HPB Raised Eyebrows - yeah, real nice with the passionfruit/guava
Phantom Carriage Blueberry Broadacres - nah thanks, didn't do it for me
Allagash Mattina Rosa - dayumn... ISO

And that dinner at Ba across the street after - recommended.
