Root + Branch Brewing (2019)

Yep just looked and that As Is event was Hudson Valley. For some reason I thought it was the one you guys did the collab with them for.

 

Sold out already apparently. Was just about to head over.

 

damn, glad the rain kept me from heading over, would've prob missed it and gotten soaked in the process.

 

Pretty insane turn out. About 70ish ppl in line at 3pm. More than double from the first release.

 

@xenjoiii Eyes Without a Face is damn near perfect. It’s like orange marmalade in a glass. This is the best IPA I’ve had in awhile. Great job.

 

Cheers! I’m glad to hear!

 

Any hitting distro at the usual places? Not that I need any more beer in the house...I don't!

 

It did last Saturday. I got it at Brightwaters.

 

We don’t distribute cans. We give a tiny portion of each beer we release to Haymaker, Monarch and Brightwaters, due to the inconvenience nature of our releases.

 

Sorry, I knew that. "Distro" was a poor choice of words.

 

Agreed that this release is absolutely fantastic. Nice to have a slight change of pace from DIPAs. Now just praying for a Root + Branch stout come the winter!
(Saw the post about the interboro collab, looking forward to that as well)

 

We’re working on that. I sourced bourbon barrels a few months ago. They’re being emptied at the distillery next month. The plan is to fill all of the oak, and package the remaining in bottles or cans.

 

@xenjoiii big thanks for doing these Haymaker can releases. Picked up a 4pk, excited to sip one while cooking dinner - cheers

 

how quickly did they sell this time? worked from home and couldn't make it Thurs...

 

I made it there Friday midday, not sure how much was left though

 

that's pretty good then, they dropped it Thurs, right? last time was gone in a few hours or less I thought

 

Yeah I was pretty happy, couldn’t make it Thursday. Was looking at Haymaker’s Instagram Friday am, some comments on the can release post made it sound like cans were still around so tried my luck

 

Both new beers are unsurprisingly amazing. The Mosaic tastes like blueberry pie.

 

Thanks man!

The Mosaic we used was from Jeppe’s 2018 crop selection. The lot he selected is really beautiful - lots of citrus and berry, with a little less pine/evergreen/dankness that’s typical in Mosaic.
