    Because it’s still 2021 but those threads are closed.

    naughty temple release Jan 29, 2022 to start off the new year.

    Damn, really? I don't see anything about it - is this a ticketed event or something?

    To those that were NYE event ticket holders they are giving us first dibs to either the dinner or tickets for it. I’m assuming it’ll be a lottery like their usual releases in the next few weeks.

    None. Seems like they have the least experienced people running these things

    You know TG, they cant spare good talent for such a cheap event...

    Was actually suppose to be their first mix 12 pack from what I understand but it was pushed back due to a lack of Galaxy and tank space. It has been some time since I've heard anything about it directly, but the brother seen a friend over Xmas who said they now have the labels for each of the 12 oz cans in the warehouse. So Ive got the fingers crossed its coming soon, I need me some DDH Sue.

    So $30 for a 12oz bottle but must pay $125 altogether for a glass and steak dinner with it…plus the option of buying a second bottle that must be consumed on site? Right…

    Don’t worry, “Tickets will be sold individually with no limit to the number one party can purchase”.

    What the hell is with their wording. Am I dense or did they have no need to add the first half of that sentence?

    Whats even better is how much this bottle will command even with it being a bait shop/ TG collab.

    I don’t even know why they are doing this as a timed release given how few bottles there are. If my math is right, there are max 500ish bottles, which means there are max 250ish tickets, which realistically probably means more like 200ish, right? And then people can buy more than 1 ticket for more than 1 bottle which means, 100-150 people will actually be making the purchase.

    Just do a random draw. Seems asinine.

    (This conflicts with a work trip, so I have no skin in the game anyway. Just seems like the epitome of stupid. This is coming from someone that hasn’t bagged on TG in years beyond the typical wise crack about profits yadayada.)

    If I’m thinking about their release dinners in the past it’s usually about 150-170 people there and that’s with the place shut down, so the fact they are leaving the bar open to serve appetizers to the general public makes me think they’ll be even less tickets than that so it’ll be very limited amount of bottles.

    ultimately this is a way for TG to get extra money by selling a dinner and a chance to buy a very limited beer which honestly sounds fantastic, a non-adjunct single barrel beer.

    could care less about the starks part, although starks has been with TG since the start and the owner has his own stock pile of rare TG beers in the cellar so it’s probably more of a thank you for being with us from the beginning.

    I heard they were doing a tequila barrel aged variant with wax worms.

    Think it’s just night crawlers they tend to soak up the oak from the barrel more.
