    Yes, you are correct. Sorry, I definitely should have made it clear that I was responding to the question from @Brewski about EH.

    Oh I see now, I didn't see the context. Good info either way

    Well, at least its not going to be on the same day as the Xmas Jam. Probably the day of the Winter Warmer now!

    Not exactly on topic, but we don't have a OHB EH thread going at the moment. Looks like EH was bottled today... Hopefully disto is soon.

    I'd expect it to only be keg/cask at a few places around the state. Definitely wouldn't expect to see any bottled.

    @phishbfm Last time I talked to Stephen (head brewer at OHB) Rum Barrelled EH will be bottled.

    In June the brewery said that it would be aging in barrels for "approximately a year." I have no idea if that's still the plan.

    -It will be bottled as well. It was brewed with molasses instead of honey and I believe it will have a different name as well.

    OMEGA POINT.... Word is that it's getting racked out of the barrels soon... possibly by Friday. Then the planning for the event starts, no date set. SO pumped.

    Same thing I heard yesterday. Middle/late Januaryish for a date, but year, nothing solid at all. The release party they're planning sounds like it'll be pretty cool.

    I can't wait for the release.

    I can't wait to see the new labels in person, I don't think you can tell in the photo but all the grey on the label will be metallic foil!

    They should bring Omega to Raleigh Rare. Hint hint hint...

    It would be pretty silly of OHB to release OP on the same day as Raleigh Rare Beer... so maybe the weekend before??

    So maybe two weeks in the tank and one week for bottling with the release on 1/17?

    I spoke to Leif before the holiday and said please don't make it the weekend of Raleigh Rare. :slight_smile:
