Well ****, look what I found at Toronado

Lemon Season

This is super lemony yet not tart at all, with an incredible dryness and a hint of cereal at the end. I'd say the taste is akin to sparkling water with a ton of lemon.

One case please.

 

[arren]

Oh it's also important to note that that 10oz pour was more expensive than a bottle of it

EPIC TIMING!! Yeah tough to beat the $5/bottle case pricing.

Anyone have thoughts on the just released beers? I can buy a few more to fill up a 12-shipper back to me. I like tart/sour beers more than farmhouse beers. Do any of these fit the bill? Abuela, Solera (198), Sophisticated Lady, Cobwebs, and Wild Lady

Also, do we get one of those glasses with our membership? Maybe I'll fill a shipper slot with a second one. They look pretty sweet...

 

[coldstorage]

We get one glass with sub

I think you will run into a problem trying to fill a shipper with purchases split across two releases because the pick-up windows don't overlap.

From January Sale:
2/28/2017 8PM
1-month pick up window ends
Bottles forfeited

From February Sale:
3/4/2017 NOON
Public bottle release
1-month pick up window begins

I like tart/sour beers more than farmhouse beers.

FYI those characteristics are not mutually exclusive. Saison Bernice is a great example of a tart American saison. I've also had some DuPonts bordering on tart as well.

In my opinion, GBC's "farmhouse" beers have a fairly pronounced acidity profile but nothing too crazy, especially when compared to their Oro beers which are much more aggressively tart. If memory serves me correctly, I think Abuela may be the most acidic of those you listed.

I like Cobwebs a lot,

Any public bottles bought with the presale can be shipped in March.

Interesting. I would have said Sante. None of my friends (on Untapped) have had anything from Une Année so now I'm curious. Anyone want to swap before someone says GTFO and go to ISO:FT?

Fam, I got you when I finally get my lazy ass to send you your Kentuckley. Need to track down a shipper. Proper cellaring tho.

Side note: Could someone let me know where you input trustee information? I'm clearly technologically challenged ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Go into the profile section (where you update address etc), and it's at the bottom of the page. Also, when you send an email to them to get your bottles ready, let them know there as well. Not a requirement, but can't hurt.

So planning to check out this new "GBC is open at 3pm on Fridays" thing ... any parking tips for that time of day? Assuming there are no free parking options ... thank you!

Park in the structure, the meters notify the police when you haven't paid

Oh that's actually really good to know ... bummer being a couple of minutes late to find a parking ticket. Thank you sir!

Total homer checking in. **** me, but Solera is so damn good. Can't wait to see where this goes!

 

[AlexM]

Where can I find an updated tap list? I didn't see one on Untappd (verified venue - love this feature), TapHunter or social media. There's one on GBC home page but looks dated (but maybe it's not?). Thank you!

There is a list at the end of this webpage. I am thinking it might not ha e been updated in the past week.

Thank you ... yes, this is what I came across but following your posts, I know Lemon Season is on draft & I didn't see it on the list

Ever consider just taking a pic of the taplist and posting on Instagram? Quick, cheap and effective Personally I dig Untappd Verified Venues but I know there's a fee involved. CHEERS!

Agreed. The bourbon barrels make it so ******* unique and just so good.

Only had the first one but it was so stupid good... Wish I had more, but at least hoping the 198 day one is on the same level.

I enjoyed the **** out of this tonight

Recommendations for any of the fruited Oros in particular? Doing the depressing task of paring down my order

IMO, this pre-order cycle is all about Nectarine Oro & George ... love the others but those two are my top priorities.

 

[EliotRosewater]

I'm typically much more interested in GBC's non-fruited stuff but holy ****, this may be the best thing I've had from them. Over the top fruit presence and incredibly soft acidity and mouthfeel.

Also, a couple floaties.

 

[Usofar]

Just picked up for myself and 4 others. I'm glad my trustees order less than me

 

[arren]

The soft acidity and balanced minerality of all their fruited beers really hits that sweet spot for me. Overly acidic stonefruit sours just don't do it for me anymore.

 

[Oaklandtraders]

Well this is nice.

Avert your eyes, half baked trustee solicitation lay ahead...

I am looking for an unusual trustee arrangement. If anyone here lives close to GBC and has a little extra space around the house I am looking for someone who might pick up and hold my allocations to be picked up by me from them IP? Likely on a quarterly basis. I am in modern times League which means once every three months I drive down to San Diego and back and when on those loops I pick up Bruery and GBC as well. Would love if someone could grab my other bottles and just hang on to them until I can swing by and grab em. I'm averaging 6 to 12 bottles per month so doubt you would ever have more than 2 cases on hand at any point in time, max. Thank you boxes will obviously be dropped when I pick up my stuff.

Too weird?

I'm already picking up for SpentBrain so I can do this for you coldstorage if you still need the help!
