Oh cool. I was looking for confirmation that it was a 100bbl batch they were doing once a month. I assumed it was, but hadn't seen it confirmed.

 

[bizoneill1]

Heard the next batch is 400bbl I wonder why...?

400 or 40? 400 would have to be multiple batches....

This would imply to me 100 bbl batches weekly rather than monthly...which would be awesome. But who knows.

If Wings were in cans here, it's probably rustle some jimmies

Coastal has it listed on beermenus (as a 22oz bottle... whoops) for $2 cheaper than Amity's 4pk of cans

dat Amity price gouging

Consider my jimmies rustled. OTWOA listed for $11.99 on Amity's beermenus page, rung up for $13.99 at the register. Also dated 11/21 (I think), so it's already 4 weeks old.

400 sounds like a lot for Lawson, but I do believe that he confirmed he would be making larger batches in the future to go with the expanded distribution. My assumption was that he might be double batching at 200 barrels or something like that, but considering that it sounds like cans will be hitting all of CT before too long, along with a bunch of new draft accounts, and expanded distribution in VT 400 barrels a month doesn't seem implausible. Especially considering the size of Two Roads' facilities.

I feel like Amity in general has taken a sharp turn for the worst....

I am going to be driving from NYC up to Needham, MA via I-84 to I-90 next Wednesday. Any chance there will be any SOS left in stores along the route? Those I am traveling with are not big on making stops while travelling so it would have to be directly off the highway. Thanks!

 

[MooltiPass]

It sold out pretty much instantly just about everywhere so I think you're probably out of luck.

Ah that's what I assumed. Thanks!

 

[cry me]

i'm assuming the bottles OEC is releasing saturday will sell out shortly after opening, correct?

Bottle. Singular(is).........see what I did there?

Depends....would take a line 90 people deep to clear them out. Albus doesn't really hold the same level of interest as the Experimentalis series, though.

See ya'll at 9am!

Well, they are releasing 180 of them! I didn't say "beers", but my grammar was ****

400. Two Roads Isn't even at its max... Remember when they installed 300bbl fermenters back in August...?

Didn't take long at all.

Look for our Sip of Sunshine IPA and Super Session #2 brews to start arriving in these two counties the week of December 22nd! Happy Holidays!"

 

[GuzzleMcBrew]

Any word for that delicious Session 2 in cans?

Wait WAT

 

[tehzachatak]

Wait WAT

Super Session? Nobody told me there'd be non SoS Lawson's. Is this contracted at 2R?

 

[MooltiPass]

That would be the assumption.

 

[jmr85]

Has anyone seen or heard anything about another round of sos being delivered this week? thought it was monthly

 

[bwparker1]

Where can you find the brewed on or born on date on a can of NEBCO Sea Hag IPA? I just grabbed a 6 pack and didn't see anything obvious that looked like a normal date.

They should look like this

[bwparker1]

Thanks... Mine has just one sticker (12/05/14) but it looks the same, so I'll assume it represents the whole 6 pack. I thought maybe it was something the store had put on the can.

Thanks for the photo cred lambandtunaphish! That's a photo of the inner corners of a case of sea hag, yielding one sticker per 6-pack. Just picked up some 12/9 hag and it's tasting mighty good!

 

[GuzzleMcBrew]

I'm really digging this SoS can right now. Finding this fresh batch more enjoyable than bottles or draft I've had in VT in the past. Supernaut from last week drinking exceptionally well to boot. Connecticut, you're all right!

 

[GuzzleMcBrew]

Sip is out in central CT again now. Crazy Bruces, Newington CT Beverage, etc.

 

[thermic]

Looks like a couple of new Igor's Dream variants will be out next month.

Cognac and Madeira barrel aged versions plus the normal Rye Whiskey version.

Headed home for the holidays tomorrow. Unlikely it lasts, but at least I know to check!
