    Ron Jeffries Twitter (here) says that they're bottling Sobrehumano Grand Reserve today. This is the first I've heard of it. Does anyone have any additional details, release information, etc?

    Fuck...ing...Eh!, bro! Want! Who still has some Sobre bottles floating around? I think I have about 5 or 6, and it is drinking amazingly right now.

    Just speculation based on past grand reserve releases but I would say: Aged about 2 years in the barrels as most of the grand reserves have been. Likely it will only be for sale at the cafe.

    Whoa, had this beer once, not the reserve one but the normal one.
    My god it was good....

    Agreed with all above. I absolutely loved this beer when fresh. It'd be amazing if they added some fruit later on to give it some additional pop. I have a few bottles left and can't wait for a comparison.

    the base beer was delicious, and biere de mars gr was worth every second of the four-hour-each-way round trip from chicago on a post-dark lord day hangover. will definitely be driving up for this.

    Yeah I'm sure these won't be cheap either. The grand reserve releases have definitely been creeping up in price the last few times.

    I'll buy what I can. Grand Reserves are my weakness.

    Welcome to the world of craft beer. Sorry about your wallet.

    I bet they'll be $13 and released in late November or December. 2 months of time in bottles sounds about right for JP GR releases.

    Yeah, the TC release for the BdM GR was kinda fail, but I was in town at least.

    The stars are going to have to align for me to land bottles of this one.

    I haven't had the regular (if anyone wants to trade me one BM me!) but I'll definitely be driving up for this. Could be released during the 'rare beer charity auction' in December-ish?

    The original isn't rare, you can still find it in some less traveled stores.
