Notch Brewing (2021)

Phew, must’ve been something temporary on the website.

 

Anyone with a monthly subscription- did you get your April delivery last week, or is it coming this week?

I just signed up today, and see it typically goes out on the first Thursday of the month. So curious if I will get an April box, or wait until May for my first.

 

Picked up Tenner and Gates...will receive them this weekend for consumption.

It will be nice to compare them to on tap last week. Although that's not a fair comparison against the Lukr taps sitting on the river in the sun...

 

Ordered same. Threw in Paczki to round out the 12.

 

April box, for me, will be delivered on April 9th.

 

Same. Looking forward to Bitter especially. Curious to see if there's a Paczki in there.

 

Tenner out of stock already... hot damn. Thought I had a second to wait and see what beer they dropped next week before it would sell out. Wonder if there was less available this time around or if Notch is seeing a spike in popularity? Perhaps the taproom being open is part of it too...

@ChrisLohring is the bitter going to see distro?

 

It’s still available on curbside, but I know that’s not your avenue.

 

You're competing with another state now for mail order. Is it PA?

Crazy it's gone already. I hovered over the complete purchase button last night and bailed.

 

Damn...glad I snagged a four pack.

Their Oktoberfest sold out super fast too this past fall. This combined with great interest in this thread is awesome to hear.

Also the interest in Schilling too...maybe people are finally sick of 8% New England IPAs and want something different and also not super boozy.

 

As I am drinking a 14% barrel aged stout...... "yeah, maybe". Looking forward to Notch Box tomorrow!

 

I did the same exact thing! Even after it disappeared for a short time yesterday. Should’ve learned.

 

I drink New England IPAs and imperial stouts too, just not in the same volume as lagers.

I might crack an 8.5% New England IPA from Tilted Barn tonight.

There's three things that are certain in life...death, taxes, and that you'll definitely regret not purchasing a new Notch release.

 

But do you enjoy them? Just kidding. I feel like I tend to pick up hop-forward beers once a month or so (and then there are always media samples arriving) and I feel like I get excited to try them and midway through I'm ready for something lower ABV.

I really enjoyed the double IPA from Firestone Walker (they sent me six) and I'm happy to have two and give the rest away to friends who might not otherwise pick up something from FW.

Also, I just got a few cans of the Raderberger pilsner and Zwickel, @AlcahueteJ. Any experience with those?

Edit: To add that I really, really have to be in the mood for a big imperial stout. And really the only time I am in that mood is around Christmas time where it's cold and I've spent all my money on Christmas presents and I want to forget about it all.

 

Received my split case of GotW and Tenner today and couldn't be happier. I want GotW on cask so badly...

 

For the inquiring minds... My subscription box had : 4 Tenners 6 Gates and 2 Loggerheads. This is basically exactly what I wanted , so I am stoked.

 

Mine was 5, 5, and 2

 

Same. I'll be starting with Gates of the West, in case you all were wondering

 

I could drink 36 of these while watching the Masters this werkend

 

I think you should do it.
