Wicked Weed/Creature Comforts Collaboration

Will definitely be trying this one!

 

Oh baby!

 

mmmmmmmmmmmm...

 

they release if they have a limit and the $ on these yet ?

 

I heard early September as a release.

 

This new offering is supposed to be the same size as "Freak" bottles. Freak is around $6 and I would think Juiceless will be in this price range.

 

They are releasing it at the Funkatorium Saturday during the White Angel release. It's hitting distort next week.

 

I was really excited about this until I saw they will be releasing an Atrial/Red Angel blend in the future.

 

It's being released in Athens Sept 2. Can't wait!

 

Wow! They sold out of the allotment at the Funkatorium yesterday!!! Hope I get some via distro!

 

I saw someone on FB say they were only 4 dollars a bottle, I hope thats the case if I find it in the Triangle.

 

Was /Is it pouring on tap at the Funkatorium? I really can't believe they sold out of it yesterday...of course with no limits on it I should have known better. Can anybody help me out with some bottles here? I'm headed up today to pick up my White Angel and am just bummed I missed out on Juiceless yesterday.

 

It was 3.99 (bottle) at the Funkatorium and under $5 for draft. Pretty solid IPA. The white Angel is really good (sour, fermented muscadine wine).

 

Was in AVL this weekend and got to try both Juiceless and White Angel, as well as Red Angel which they had on draft at the Funkatorium during the WA release. I much preferred the White to the Red. Lots of muscadine character which may not be for everybody. I had Juiceless at the main pub on Friday night and thought it was reminiscent of Sip of Sunshine but a tad sweeter and less hoppy. Really good for the price point, and I was happy to see it cheaper than Freak. I picked up 4 bottles and will look for more when it hits distro. I think they were really surprised it sold out so fast because they claimed there was a lot of it to go around. I left around 1 but didn't see a ton of people leaving with full cases while I was there, but I guess that changed by later in the day.

 

To me, Juiceless tasted basically like a in between Pernicious and Freak. Pine/resin notes with tropical floral finish. Good stuff and a decent price point.

I was a little upset by White Angel, it basically tastes like Welch's white grape juice right now, but I am sure with time the sugars will go down a little and the tartness will pick up, as last years White is one of my favorites.

I did really enjoy the Red Angel so jammy and tart, and the Chocolate Covered was a nice surprise to have, its aging really nice (too bad I didnt buy enough bottles!)

Also, huge kudos to Wicked Weed for taking care of the Golden Angel returns, the process couldn't have been easier.

 

So was Golden not on tap all weekend? I thought it was originally listed to be on tap, but Chocolate Covered was listed instead.

Juiceless was just ok to me - but for $4/500 the price is right.

 

Not that I know of, they decided to hold on to it a little longer. Chocolate was a nice surprise though.

 

The White Angel is my least favorite of the Angels, for no other reason than not high on the pucker factor. I will say, the grape is very prominent and it is worthy of a taste, just not a lot of funk/sour going on at this point.

Yea they didn't like the taste of the Golden still. It needs to sit a bit longer. And, yes, very excited about at least 3 collab's coming up. Keep your ears to the earth on these three upcoming, Atrial/Red being the first.

I had the Juiceless, but honestly, total waste on me. I have yet to find any IPA that is palatable to my finicky taste buds.

 

TW, where did you see this? I can't find anything on social media about it. Released at the brewery or retail?
