Not to downplay the excitement of the allocations but I cant help but mention this tidbit they threw into the details. It seems like the Bruery is perpetuating their problem of over-projecting what they can feasibly deliver in a yearly timeframe.
"Today is also one of the biggest Society Member Mondays we've ever had for new allocations. And there's still plenty more in store that we had planned for the 2015 calendar year, which is a good thing (from a beer adventure point-of-view) and a bad thing (from a pocketbook's perspective). So, rather than cram everything into these last few months, some of the releases are going to be pushed into the first few months of 2016, where all members of our 2015 Reserve and Hoarders Societies will have access to purchase allocations at the same amount and discount as the present year. When the beer tells us it's ready, we'll space out the releases accordingly."
When the beer is ready - its ready. Yes, I would rather have ready beer than beer thats rushed to get it to us on their previously determined schedule. Indeed many are already spending so much money this month but dont pretend your failure of scheduling is a courtesy to us. Unless they are implying the start of next year is going to be slow and boring, the only people benefiting from this year being stretched out are the ones who are not in for next year. The rest of us will have the 2015 leftovers as well as the new 2016 allocations to deal with juggling financially.
Ugggh im such a whiny bitch.
