Bruery Societies 2016 Allocations/Discussion Thread

It kind of sounds like Magpie (the Mead from New Day) which was pretty good...

I thought the same thing.

The list of things being poured at the 2016 BT release party is insane. I want to go now just for Black Tuesday Reserve, but again the $80 ticket and taking off Wednesday from work isn't going to fly. I'm not sure how they are going to monitor everyone to drink responsibly. I know we are all adults but 30+ beers and unlimited pours.

Today, we're pleased to announce the preliminary beer list for our Black Tuesday Release Party on Tuesday, October 25. More Black Tuesday treatments and variants (as well as the more sessionable offerings) will be announced shortly. In the meantime, these should hold you over:

Did you expect something different? They had Hoarders only stuff last year too.

They have Hoarders-only pours at most (all?) of their events.

They had a hoarders only section at one of their parties a few years ago. It's one of the benefits of the membership

Finally got around to trying all of the elements of funk beers. Other than them exploding all over my kitchen, it wasnt bad. Silly me for thinking they would smell/taste unique, the differences were quite subtle and after a couple glasses noone I shared them with could tell them apart from one another.

 

[DougOLis]

Anyone tried this year's batch of Humulus Rueuze? How does it compare to last year with the switch from Hallertau Blanc to Huell Melon hops?

 

[Doc1]

Anyone in here I know / have traded with want to be my Trustee this upcoming year? I finally bit the bullet and signed up for a reserve membership.

Would that allow me to fill up growlers with reserve beer if you allow it?

Or does proxies only work on Bottle pick ups? (Which would be yours of course)

Anyway I live less than 2 miles from the Bruery. I may be down

I thought you can't drink beer?

I can't, I'm celiac. So I traded the beer for Schramms Mead

I cant but Growlers make great gifts!

Rule #1 of beer: dont chili my beer. ever

if you're thinking about it, stop ball dominant hand into fist. Look at the knuckles
and throw it into your face as fast/hard as possible. Repeat as necessary until chili thought is removed from mind.

Typically, I read a beer from the Bruery that sounds amazing and I over-buy the **** out of it and then live with the regret of buying any of it, let alone more than 1 bottle.

Share this coffee addition was a great brew. Assuming the base beer is the same and they didnt go apeshit with the peppers, I think this is gonna be another great brew. (But im not buying more than 1 until I taste it.)

So you don't like Huna or Abraxas or Leche Borracho or Bomb? More for me I guess.

No, no I do not like those. (actually never had Leche, but if it has chilies doubt I'll like it). Only chili beer I didn't loathe actually, was Ukulele which is universally hated right?

 

[swanfungus]

Uke was pretty bad, I thought.

Speaking of which, has anyone cracked a White Mocha recently? I was getting some straight-up bizarre aromas coming off it last night. Taste was fine, but that nose was...weird. Coffee, vanilla barrel, Frank's Red Hot?!

Ukelele was so bad I had to break my months long untappd hiatus just to make sure the world knew I thought it was a 0.25 caps. And that was generous.

 

[swanfungus]

I love the Bruery. More times than not I am very happy with their beers.

You also kind of have to admire that when they fail, they fail spectacularly. Derde Golf? Oof.

Also, a couple weeks ago the Society Fulfillment Center was selling Roble Blanco out of their fridge...

sounds like there is no coffee in this sadly. def needs some mostra in it

I liked Run BMC, and I can't believe I'm saying this but Melange 11 got substantially better with age. I still wouldn't buy it again, but at least it was drinkable.

Dat dead cat bounce. Nowhere to go but up.

That beer has some awful company in my ratings:

Melange 11
Bud Light Lime a Rita
Sour Kimchi Ale
Bud Clamato
Triple Bock

I actually liked Bud Light Lime well enough. Tasted like a Bud Light with a **** ton of fake lime juice added. Better than Bud Light straight imo. Never tried Lime a Rita though...

You have a palate made of steel.

I just had a petit larceny sentencing (guy stole an 18 pack of BL). Manager of the convenience store said they had $600 worth of Budweiser stolen alone that month.

I said "bad people steal bad beer."

My client just laughed.

If you like Triple Bock so much maybe you're prepared to make on offer on this bad boy here:
