    Interesting coincidence. Just saw a Facebook update by Brad 20 minutes ago. Apparently more invite emails were sent today.
    There’s still hope for a lucky few.

    Emails were sent out to 160 people yesterday that are on the waitlist with a link that goes live at 9am PST today (8/16). 90 new memberships are available, so everyone that received the link isn't guaranteed a membership.

    Since no one seems to be posting these, below are today's releases, 3 bottles allocated per member:

    Kazym ($28/bottle) is a new blend that centers around some incredible rum casks that were used to finish Templeton Rye for 6 months. The essence of the rum spirit is present but balanced by the additional rye finish. The blend also includes Willett Rye and Weller barrel-aged stouts creating a very deep experience akin to its namesake. At 10.6% abv, this blend showcases all the spirit and barrel character with virtually zero burn. Kazym reveals layers of burnt citrus, dark sweet cherry, bubbling caramel, and waves of vanilla and baking spice, all enrobed in dark chocolate.

    Beyond Forever ($35/bottle) moves closer to its original inspiration, 2010 Goose Island Vanilla Rye. This year's vintage showcases all rye barrels and an average aging time of 17 months. The blend was conditioned on the signature Private Press vanilla blend (as tasted in Expanding Worlds) of Ugandan, Tahitian, and Ecuadorian vanilla beans, at a rate of 2lbs/bbl. The vanilla presents a toasted marshmallow and milk-chocolate raspberry truffle flavor profile. The base barrel-aged stout blend is rich, bold, and full of spice and caramel. It has been a pleasure to revisit some of the blends from the first year and improve upon them.
