Cheers!!
 
All that aside, people freaked out more because the Vanilla Noir was infected with Brett, and Chase has said the same. It isn't close to 100% of the batches, but some of the vanilla beans did transfer Brett to the beer and some bottles are gushers and infected. The rust absolutely had nothing to do with it though.

I did however have a bottle that the beer was leaking out and bubbling through the wax, I watched it bubble out for 5 straight minutes, definitely a leak.


/swapping out the vanilla noir in a trade box I'm putting together.../

The first one I had was great, but don't want to risk it on someone else.
 
I just dont get how it could rust even if it was wet when they waxed it. Rust needs water and oxygen and wax would eliminate the oxygen part of that in theory. Hmmm, science! And damn that is cheap for barrels! I assume they are 55 gallon?


The wax does not fill all the crevices/crimped areas, therefore there is oxygen present. I heard they wax with the bottles cold, so that's where the moisture probably came from.

I have a hard time believing it did not contribute to the quality issues with their beers since they have since moved away from wax. Never heard anyone in Arkansas complain about rusted caps or quality issues---they don't get waxed versions.
 
fwiw, I had one last week and it was great. But I know it wasn't every bottle...


Yea the one I had was great too, but like I said would hate to risk sending someone else an infected one (even if the risk is minimal). I'll swap it with one of the other variants and drink the vanilla.

I've dewaxed (if that's the term for
It) many bottles and some have had rust on the cap. It didn't deter me from drinking them or even thinking off flavors. Even after drinking.

Supposedly it was primary a Houston thing. Which sucked for us but the bottles you have more than likely will be fine. Send away! The kegs that made it here were fine so at least i got to try an uninfected one.


Still got nothing i want to part with on this list. I haven't traded in a while and seem out of touch :drunk:
 
Nuclear, mrnick, feel free to send me some CD8! Also, anything else HF. Hell yes!
 
Sweet maw hookup from fellow NY'er mikeysab. Bunch of goodies I've never had and wanted as well as some I've never even heard of. 2 growlers from carton and a sweat glass too. Thanks Mike!

Hope thats at least considered a MAW worthy box. Enjoy Mike. I've had everything in there and they're all excellent beers.
 
There's a few beers that have been on lists in here and it's an extremely generous amount of good stuff. Started with the 077xx now and it's pretty damn good.
Thanks again.
