Lagunitas Born Yesterday

Not distributed to MI? Boo!

 

Just received our five cases of 6 packs in Oregon. We had to pre-order, so I am not sure what the going forward availability will be.

 

I have 1/2 a sixer left if anyone is interested in a trade in the GR/Holland area. A great brew indeed!

 

Is this coming to MD/DC/NoVA???

 

Doesn't look like it:

(I'm assuming that's Washington State).

 

Dammit!

 

It's not clear from their site if that list of places are the only states that are going to get it or if those are just the states that have it now. Seems like it depends on whether they are planning to brew more or whether it was just the one batch.

 

It's a fresh hop. I can't imagine them brewing another batch. Kind of defeats the purpose of it.

Had it on tap twice in Seattle, it's good stuff. Still on tap at Last Drop Bottle Shop if anyone happens to be in town.

 

Had some on draft yesterday, now my favorite Lagunitas brew

 

Had it last week, was super impressed and is now my top Lagunitas brew

 

Didn't see it at Bine n Vine yesterday or the day before. There's no way this sold out that fast is there?

 

It was sold out at Total Wine in Thousand Oaks within a week. That was two weeks ago.

 

7.5 is crushable? oh you big man you.

 

I didn't find any either. I already gave up, it's now born a few weeks ago. Will wait to see if theres going to be another batch.

 

They gotta make another batch.

 

I'm not surprised they're not even bothering to try and get this one to the WNC market since we're always the last to see new releases so the Born Yesterday would already be at least 3 weeks old by the time it got here, thus defeating the purpose.

 

I suspect they will...next year. This year, it was, apparently, a brand-new wet hop beer, a re-imagining of their standard pale ale. Perhaps it will be regularly released, non-wet hopped, as the replacement for New Dogtown. But I've seen no clear indication on the Lagunitas website about their plans. Whatever the case, it's an extraordinary beer.

 

How is this a Pale Ale?

 

Cuz Lagunitas says so! Just like how is Zombie Dust a pale ale?

 

): we got screwed. Hopefully I see it somewhere during beerweek.
