    Funny. April stuff shows on my phone. Current stuff on desktop.

    Of course, after I made that post, I can now see the Allocations button again after I click on "Your Account". Maybe Google Chrome was having an off-day yesterday. :grin:

    Maybe a dumb question but I want to double check... I'm thinking about getting the Reserve Society 2025 shipped to PA. Is the free shipping only included once per year, in other words I'd have to wait a full year to get my whole allotment without paying any shipping?

    I realize it's too late this year... But if there happened to be a tasty ratio of Mash and the Monster base it kind of names itself for a Halloween release.

    Free shipping doesn’t apply to cellar items, only “new purchases”. If you spend over $200 and don’t cellar, you can ship those for free. No limit on how many times you can do this. Whenever you spend $200, shipping is free.

    For cellared items, best current strategy is to wait until you have 15 items and then ship for cheapest shipping per bottle ($40 for 15). This could change in 2025 with the shift to 375ml bottles..

    Opened an M3 to motivate the Dodgers to get their third win in the series (and it worked! So now I am scrambling to find 4 calling birds for the next couple series). Anyway, interesting that the label does not identify the blend beers. As I recall, it was BT, the Ani, and White OS? Either way, pretty tasty— and I like to believe I can identify all three of those!

    That was the original blend... Assuming still the same?

    Finally trying Enthaiced... Happy about the shift to 375ml bottles next year.

    I appreciate the try. And the name is 10/10. The chai is interesting but a little too weird. And oddly, it's not very sweet, especially by Bruery standards. So the tea bitterness stands out.

    What year was the M3? Was it the 2024, or one of the older vintages?

    So it’s good that I ordered a few of them? Hopefully they ship soon and I can try them before they are sold out or no longer in allocations!

    I had it at the BT party last year… easy Max… but then again, are there limits anymore?

    So, I have a stash of bottles that I purchased for an out-of-state colleague who used to travel through here for work pre-COVID. These were bottles from 2020, and he stopped traveling through and I kind of forgot about them in a box in the cellar and figuring I would eventually hand them off. We both realized that’s probably never gonna happen, so I should just keep them.

    I forgot what I even had, but was pleasantly surprised to find the following:
    -Aloha Friday
    -Chocolate Rain
    -1 each of the 2020 BT box releases (Piece of Me, Sweet Magnolias, Love after Midnight, Liberty Stoutwich)
    -Black Tuesday Maple(!)

    Needless to say, I will be enjoying these very much in the coming days!

    I would suggest not downing all that in just a few days :joy:
