Connecticut... What's going on?

[jmarce]

Was it crazy there today? Still baffles me how you can get fills in 10 minutes on a weekend with G-Bot, Locust, Galaxy and Dry-Hopped Galaxy on but the second they put FBD on all hell breaks loose.

Hopefully with the increased production they won't have many shitshows moving forward. They fact the confidently said that FBD would last until tomorrow shows nice improvement, along with regular pours of Locust Reign, etc.

Any idea how much the OEC special releases usually cost? I'm looking at Experimentalis specifically.

Just saw my e-mail receipt from NEBCO for Coffee Breath with a time stamp of 2:58pm. Very happy to get some great brew quickly & not have to deal with crazy lines or the Mass Pike.

Haven't seen a private pick 4R in CT in a long time. Total Wines in Manchester. Maybe the other TWS got it as well?

Yeah Norwalk (and I believe Milford) had it around Christmas. I think it's still in Norwalk, but I haven't stopped in for a few weeks.

So what are OEC releases like? I'm thinking of going to the release this Saturday and I'm wondering what to expect in terms of selling out etc. I was hoping to get there around 12-1ish.

If it's anything like the last release you won't get any Experimentalis.

 

[lambandtunaphish]

Well, he could prolly get it on draft (assuming it's on draft Saturday).

True. Hopefully, actually. I plan on going there Saturday but not early enough to score a bottle.

Thank you, good to know

 

[Knifestyles]

Anyone goin' to OEC on Saturday with some sick cans in hand?

Granted I've never had an Experimentalis, but I don't understand why people go crazy and line up for those but their other excellent offerings sit on the shelf for weeks or months. Not that I'm complaining; makes it easier on me.

The Experimentalis series is awesome.

But more so than that, it's just a good opportunity to hang with all of the solid crews that generally roll pretty deep.

The beer is just gravy.

I just wish that they could somehow make solaris again.

54 released

54 released

B2 I believe, yes? Wasn't b1 grower/draft only? I was pretty sure it's the only Experimentalis release I dont have a bottle of. Am I wrong?

It was batch 1. They bottled a very limited amount (obviously) and sold during the first Meyer Lemon release.

Copied from the release email:

"As a bonus there will also be an extremely limited amount of Experimentalis with Raspberries bottles for sale. 54, 750ml bottles will be available with a strict limit of one (1) per customer. This is the last of the original batch of Experimentalis with Raspberries that has been previously available on draft."

 

[GMRfx]

Oh, huh. I do have that. For some reason I thought I was missing one.

Edit. B1 tempus. Thats what I'm missing!

 

[Knifestyles]

Yeah, there were only ~24 bottles of that and sold out on day one (literally).

It's ******* incredible right now, though. Best OEC beer to date, which says a lot.

 

[GMRfx]

Damn dude. Rub it in. I just gotta find someone that has a bottle, and I can bring the rest of the batches... And all the experimentalis releases. I really need to drink those.
