Tree House Brewing Company (June 2016)

I pulled into the parking lot last Wednesday (May 25) at 2:51 p.m., got my 12 cans and was back in my car driving off at 3:07 p.m. (yes, I timed it, for science). Wouldn't call that crazy by any means...

 

That sounds great, should look for a carpool before I visit Boston!

 

Counter to that would be my visit on May 18th when I got there at 3.12 and left at 3.47.

 

Didn't get an exact time, but I just got back from the brewery a few minutes ago. Got there around 12:45 and was back to my car before 1:20. They really crank 'em through.

 

35 minutes, though a bit of a wait, still isn't the hours and hours some people seem to think is common. If I remember correctly, there were way more people there on the 18th than the 25th, but a Curiosity release will do that (I only got Lights On and Haze).

 

Just left. In/out in less than 5min

 

Excellent first trip to TreeHouse. Got there10:45 about #20 in line ... Talked with a local guy named Johntil they openec. In and out in 5 minutes with my fill

 

As someone who occasionally drives for Uber or Lyft, I'd pretty much insist on this. I'd bring you there, but I'm not going to sit there for free waiting to drive back. We'll leave the meter running (which I think is about $0.30-0.40/minute.)

From the Uber site the fare there is going to cost you about $40. Let's say you wait for an hour, that's another $25 or so, then $40 back to the Worcester Train Station.

I can't fathom how anyone would find that to be worth the money.

 

If you are from Korea and a big craft beer fan and may never get the opportunity again in life to visit Tree House I think it may be worth it.

 

Random question, but does anybody know why the availability on In Perpetuity's beer profile recently was changed from "Limited (brewed once)" to "Rotating": http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/28743/189696/

My sense based on a post by BAMF last month was that this was a one-off for Nate's/Lauren's first anniversary, but I'm hoping that this might mean someone has knowledge that it's going to be brewed again. Anybody have any info?

 

Man, I sure hope they bring this back. One of the most beautiful beers I've ever had.

 

How about the photo Nate posted this morning of the new fermenter, 1,000 barrels/~248K cans more a year

 

I believe that works out to another 60bbl. I wonder how many they have now. Looks like limits were lowered on alter and sap to 3pp. Friday is looking good now, they might be expecting a big turnout today

 

Went yesterday specifically for the SAP...great stuff

 

Cant go to treehouse this week. Been sucking on trees for the past 48 hrs.....not the same as SAP. Just notes of dirt and bird turds.

 

Uh oh, good catch. Could be a doozy today. Good luck to all. I hope you're right about Friday, I'm just afraid a big release will drain everything and create a massive Friday crowd as well.

 

Heading up again today. Not sure what to expect. I'm working till 5 and won't get up there until 6. I'm nervous. Haha

 

Disappointing lack of baseless speculation for this late of a Thursday announcement

 

I believe I read on twitter they were considering pushing the next two canning runs to Fri/Sat. Might have something to do with it, if true.
