Use of the word Trader down at the bottom made me wonder.

Modern Times has a TJ Exclusive IPA there now so this won't surprise me

For being a brand that usually has terrific labeling, a lot of their recent labels look like ******* Hawaiian shirts (Hawaiian shirts NEVER look anything but hideous).

Hawaiian shirts look awesome.




Until they leave Hawaii.

This is so freaking true. Even the Hertz uniform Hawaiian shirts look great in Hawaii. They probably look like nuclear waste as clothing anywhere else.

I can't get over how bad this new site is. For some reason they show Hoarders allocations to me now even though I'm in RS. Like dangling a carrot

Think about how us lowly PS feel...

Has anyone tried any of this month's allocations yet?

That was the straw that made me decide not to renew my membership.
Edit: how bad the site is not that I can see hoarders offerings.

Looks like the rumors for the Hoarder's BT bottle are showing up on other sites. Peanut Butter -bal Thursday in bottles does sound exciting. Hope the rumors ring true!

Label looks fishy...

so peanut butter and thursday is the new black tuesday variant. Interesting. Any hoarders want to purchase one for me when it comes out?

If Thursday is in the name, could it be the new weekday beer they hinted at for 2017 and the variant this year is something different? Either way, I'm a BT whore and will definitely try to get my ****** Reserve hands on both.

If rumors* are true there might not be any more to buy. May just be the two bottles included in the membership.





*I started this rumor to drive up pre-trade hype and secondary value.

do you have details on these? I am not a hoarder anymore, but still curious as I have some friends who may be able to hook it up with stuff.

Curious how many 2016 Hoarders members are choosing to decline membership for next year.

Anecdotally, seems like a ton of members are moving on to other things next year, beer or otherwise.

funkyaudio fear025 dvelcich and myself split a Hoarders membership this year (after years of various arrangements where a few local guys had 2-3 memberships), but we are going to let it lapse this year.

I earmarked the money I spent on Hoarders to my El Catador membership from Cigar City and Societe du Chete from Perennial. I have more than enough Bruery stuff to last me the next few years.

I'm out too. Based on a confluence of factors and general jadedness, but ultimately HS is terrible value and poorly executed.

Three years in it's now apparent that $695 doesn't buy much more than prestige.

Cannot begin to fathom the postal expenses of getting a hoarders haul back safe to Australia.

$20 per bottle. I frequently question my priorities and sanity.

After a couple of years of debating it, I finally went through with it and didn't renew next year. Couldn't feel better.

Something is wrong with my life and I want to buy a Preservation membership just for BT. Anyone want to trustee for me?

Isn't there a public raffle for bottles?

I believe so, but my track record with raffles and lotteries suggests it wouldn't go well.

Being very local to the Bruery I decided to renew.

funkyaudio fear025 dvelcich and myself split a Hoarders membership this year (after years of various arrangements where a few local guys had 2-3 memberships), but we are going to let it lapse this year.

I'm going the opposite route, I'm not renewing El Catador for round 5 and didn't renew another club.

I'm out too. Based on a confluence of factors and general jadedness, but ultimately HS is terrible value and poorly executed.

I already split it with 2 great guys and really like the events it gives me access to plus the 20% discount is very nice. So I'm saying HS is an excellent value to me for what I want.

I wasn't going to renew, but friends in Pittsburgh asked me to split it with them. They paid the fee, and will have the majority of the allocations. I trustee for them and in return get the option to buy tickets, the onsite discount, and growler fills.
