    Don't miss the Oud Bruin Barrel #18 that went on in place of Barrel #21. #18 was Roselare, Saccharolicious, & Jolly Pumpkin Brett. Super good.

    Cheers & thanks,

    I would need to either run outside for a pizza or a couple blocks away to in n out. Sometimes I just need to let one go and regret it later

    Edit: that whole forgetting to grab lunch today is keeping me from drinking more.

    Overall, great release party. Grabbed 2 bottles for my sister that was unable to attend. Those servers deserve a medal or something for as busy as they were and never keeping an empty glass in front of anyone. Cheers jacob and MT

    BTW @ModernTimesJacob can we request smaller tasters? Normally I wouldn't complain about big tasters, but when I'm trying to tick'em'all, those phat ass pours really hinder that...

    Any thoughts on the new sours?

    NOOOOO, if this happens, we will become sworn enemies and comic books will be created over our rivalry. The comics will be made into motion pictures that will have sequels to the point that they can't create anymore. Once they bore the population with our rivalry we will then be featured characters in other comic movies as a crossover type of thing.

    P.S. We must not let that happen but if it does I am cool with being the super hero or villain.

    @StanLee - thoughts?

    Smaller tasters would require us to keep a whole new set of glasses on-hand, which would be a pain. We talked about doing half-pours, but that never ends up going smoothly. You might just have to suffer through 7oz pours, unless we switch to a keeper glass, which would be 5oz but involve additional monies. I apologize for probably squashing @Xtent's motion picture dreams.

    Cheers & thanks,

    Happy the tasters remain the same, pretty bummed on the whole movie deal.

    I opened the Rampart Junction Saturday night. Oude Bruin isn't my favorite style but it was pretty damn good. You can definitely taste the peaches in a big way. Will drink the Cracked Heads soon. I'm betting these are best fresh, while the fruit is still very forward.

    I'm looking forward to the fruited sour blondes next December ...

    Need to go pick my bottles up.

    When is the last day to pick up the bottles again? Sometime in February, right?

    From BPT: "You will be able to pick-up your bottles at the Lomaland Fermentorium tasting room during the period from 12pm on Thursday, December 11th, 2014 until 10pm on Thursday, February 12th, 2015. Unfortunately, no exceptions can be made to either the bottle limit, nor the pick-up window. You cannot pick-up your bottles at the North Park Flavordome. **Any bottles not retrieved by Thursday, February 12th 2015 will be surrendered back to the brewery (no exceptions).**"

    I'm going to wait until the 12th to pick mine up just so the employees get their hopes up that an extra 3 bottles will be up for grabs. Is it correct that only 500 bottles or so of the fruit sours were bottled?

    Page 2 of this thread suggests 375 of each fruited variant...
