Bruery Societies 2015 Allocations/Discussion Thread

[stakem1]

Which part is leaking, the ice pouch in the middle? Definitely never had that happen. If it's about beer leaking out of it, there are bigger problems than the bag.

serious...i came here to post a charlie murphy "**** yo growler bag" gif

we gonna complain about bags leaking while their "growlers" dont even retain liquid? i never even considered the growler bag would be waterproof

I would have to say the StIR w/ Peaches last night had high acedic levels but not Upland level sour.

when i read this comment last week, i figured i would only buy 1 bottle just to try it for myself. over the weekend my wife asked if i ordered it because she liked the last release and wanted to have it again. i just went to order a bottle and saw the allocation period is over.

no reminder email AND a shorter than normal ordering timeframe?

Some of these guys are none too pleased about it.

My take is that generally if you are nice and email they will extend the order window for you. It's been done in the past. If you're an ass about it, then they'll point out where you were told about the deadline.

I tried the nice way. They told me to go **** myself.

French Oak Bois, Filmishmish and L'Deracola are now up.

...and Grey Monday

...and Grey Monday

Yeah, I saw it but didn't check the year and was thinking it was the archive sale.

 

[daniel1]

I must have checked it before they added this year's but now they're both up. Bourbon Sucre as well.

 

[matedog]

That cola beer sounds terrible. That plus the port barrel Sucre means this Preservation quarter is going to be pretty rough.

 

[user 305963]

From the Bruery's description....."L'deracola is a beer inspired by another favorite drink of ours that probably shouldn't be such a favorite... cola! To create this unique beer we had to dive through the overwhelming layer of saccharine that dominates the flavor of most colas and discover the subtle flavors that create the world's most popular soft drink...."

You had me at saccharine. Yum!

Hi all,

Sorry for the delayed response - I was away from a computer for a couple days and am just getting caught up on the thread now.

I checked in with the Society team and assessed our remaining stock of SITR w/ Peaches this morning. We do have a limited stock remaining and will do our best to offer the beer for sale to any members who are still looking to purchase.

If you missed out on Sour in the Rye w/ Peaches, please email [email protected]. If you've already been in contact, the we've saved your email address and will be in touch with you next week regarding next steps. We expect to be back in touch with interested members next Monday, May 11th.

Cheers,
Matt Olesh

Email says Filmishmish is 11.2% abv. That's a typo, right?

Has to be. The second beer in April's allocation email was Imperial Or Xata, which is 11.2% ABV (and Filmishmish is the second beer this month), so I'm assuming they copied April's email template and neglected to change that.

Mr. Olesh posted over on the other site saying to email the society if you missed out on the SiTR w/peaches and that you would get taken care of starting on the 11th of this month.

http://bit.ly/1I4whMH this should have both...

I love that joke, but when executing it one needs to make sure that it actually produces the answer.

... so after a lot of googling I failed to find a picture of the 2011 bag, I just cleaned mine out yesterday so I'll snap a picture of it tonight

If you don't want Port Sucre, I'll happily trade you something for it. Loved that beer.

"Congrats on your graduation, here is a beer that I don't think tastes good."

 

[trippytbta]

Damn, maybe I was ill as my palate was ****** up and that is why it tasted so good
