Side Project / Shared (2020)

I was outside with my pup, looks like I had missed it by at least 35ish mins....He better make it up to me

What all was available? I saw a bunch of sold out, and got a pissed for about 2 mins, then went on with my life.

 

I need one of two things to happen so I can try many of these beers I missed out on:

1) Pandemic to end so I can drink some of these bottles on site.
2) Proxy option to go away. (As silly as it sounds coming from someone who lives in the north suburbs of Chicago, driving down for me isn't a problem.)

I think people catching on to the 'proxy' option over the past few months seems to have made obtaining SP bottles all that more challenging. Last bottle I scored was Pulling Nails #11 (or did Coconut Vibes b3 come after it?... whichever was later, was the last bottle I was able to score).

Of course, my reasons are selfish.

 

In no particular order...

Fuzzy (750ml), AdF, OdB, We Are You, Raspberry BdP, Coex Blauw, and then packages of BACSV, Coco Vibes, For Gabe, and Anabasis.

Sure I forgot one or two. It was a bit of a whirlwind.

Some were live for only a flash. I've been pretty quick on the draw through the bigger releases, and couldn't even get For Gabe into the cart. 15-20 seconds max.

 

SP essentially wanted to pressure test their website to see if it would crash.

 

That’s what the RBBT public sale was for

 

BBT 2020 being bottled today!!

 

I've got one open.. want a sample?

 

Well yesterday was crazy, I got a coco vibes pack. Anyone else get one of those?
Comes with grissette and bdp for 110, does that mean coco vibes is $75?!

no boat trips for me

 

****oo for Coco Vibes!

 

Nuts. They re-posted the Base Weight variant, and I missed it.

Bought two 4-packs at launch and I'm almost out of it. It's a phenomenal dessert beer.

 

Well that’s better, looks like grissette b6 too which is pretty cool

 

Might have been a grab bag--my Coco Vibes package had 2 bottles of Blend 7 and one bottle of Blend 6. (...and the bottle of BdP, but that didn't survive the night. )

Side Project TWCP 2020 Derivation...$80 / bottle

"...one off blend of Double Barrel Derivations was brewed in 2016 and aged in TWCP store pick bourbon barrels. We then finished the mature BA stout in Willett Bourbon and VSOP Cognac barrels for another aging before selecting a final blend that exemplifies the Derivation name"

It will go through our BRC

Always mixing it up a little bit - we will release it in multiple ways.
Most will go via the BRC Beer Reward Club.
It will be based on 6 months purchases through September 27th, 2020

• Part will be released based on beer only purchases
• Part will be released based on all purchases (beer, wine, whiskey, cheese, candy, vodka, tequila...)

Some bottles will be released through our Social Media platforms - make sure you follow us on those. That will happen in October.
We will do some sort of random drawing from our social media accounts. Release a few bottles to our Instagram followers, our Facebook followers, and our Twitter followers.

 

does it look like Beeslo is photographing a magnum in the IG story?

 

He’s using it to hold up the card

 

ISO more pixels for zooming

 

It looks like there's a J, another letter, a g, another letter or 2, and then a tall letter at the end (a D?...This word i'm coming up with looks rather bizarre.)

 

i was thinking it looked like “Trail” on the label, which was a series years ago in 375mL format though. that’s probably not right though.
