Don't get it at Binny's, get it three weeks early!

Beer is the new video games. "Don't break 'street date' on that beer, bro."

OR one of your beloved breweries banning people from the premises / buying a release because said person posted the label from a public news article about the beer to BA prior to the brewery making their own blog post about the beer.....

The funniest thing ever to happen in Texas Craft Beer ever is what the hell happened.

That's just so amazingly butthurt on the part of the brewery. And it was over Snorkel? That beer wasn't even good.

I found the press release....

Hi Matt,

As I'm sure you know, we were extremely disappointed to see label art that we had not released posted on the internet, and then disappointed once again to see reviews posted for a bottle of the same beer, which we also had not yet released.

We are extremely serious about protecting our intellectual property and deciding if and when to share that intellectual property with the general public. We are also equally serious about not having our beers consumed by anyone other than brewery employees or reviewed on public forums before they're ready for release.

Our feelings about these issues should come as no surprise, and as a result of your decision to go against our clear wishes not once but twice with respect to Snörkel, we, in turn, have decided that we will not be selling you this beer, nor will we sell it to anyone traveling to Jester King with you, or purchasing it explicitly on your behalf.

We appreciate your strong interest in our beers, and hope that you will continue to visit the brewery and to purchase them in accordance with the rules and limitations that we set out.

I hope you understand our decision.

Cheers,
Ron

This is completely off-topic, but I just had to share (because we all find it hilarious down here, even Matt, who still goes to every Jester King release). I can just imagine how butthurt InBev will get with stores that start selling before Black Friday.

Ok can't help myself, how did Matt get ahold of said beer prior to the "public" release?

It was a picture of the label that had been posted elsewhere... he reposted it on the Jester King official thread (when we were allowed to do those sorts of things).

That's awesome, I assume Ron knows that his labels all go through the TTB website where folks who have a bit of time can find them when they've been approved right?

Best example of this I remember hearing about comes from my rock climbing background. A British climber (of course) was examining a camming device that had been fallen on hard and had a camming unit bent to hell by the impact. His evaluation of the piece of gear was, literally:

"This ******* ****** is ******* ******."

You take that back right now.

Shrug, it didn't do much for me. At least it wasn't a disgusting mess like Ambree though. Last bottle of that I opened was the worst beer I've had in 2015.

 

[RayP]

I liked Snorkel and Ambree.

Prop 2015 is chocolate pepper deliciousness

Rare is good but I have no palate. Your glass came with a pour. Beer options are 2014 and 2015 taps. There is also a mystery pour, which is a choice between two beers. One token equals one pour, but they won't tell you what it is. You just pick left or right.
