Firestone and Flying dog Collab for SAVOR. Hydra Cuvee. Blend of Robust Porter and 3 BA beers. Label is for 22OZ bottles, but it is supposed to be SAVOR exclusive.

The blend is Bravo, DDBA, Wookie Jack, and a Gonzo inspired porter brewed at FW.

Barrelworks Bottled Bretta Rose this week, which is a Raspberry version of their berliner weisse aka Bretta Weisse. Probably be released in June? I am hoping after the FWIBF. But I know there are alot of Beliner hounds out there (stakem , 1v1willwreku , More) So they should keep their eyes open for this one.

I'd say IN! but it will probably be out of my price range. Hope to see it on draft somewhere.

If the bottles see any distribution, their bottled offerings so far have been FW locations only, probably around the $15 range for a 375. I think Feral One Kegs made it out of the county which means these probably have a chance too.

Anyone driving to the Lil Opal release? Want to gopickmeupinGoletabro if so? This poor college kid is carless but spends way too much on beer and feels the need to go buy more beer. Will buy you a flight in return...

Rau71 or others, is Lil Opal sold out? Might try to make it up on Friday if not.

Didn't go this week but the Paso location is putting bottles on sale tomorrow.

 

[cardinalbruintriton]

I also read that they restocked on Ferals. Can anyone confirm?

My friend was at the Lil Opal release and he said that they did indeed have more bottles of Feral. He wouldn't shut up about how amazing Saucerfull of Secrets was, though. I wanna try that.

I was not impressed with that. Seemed like people were in love with that beer but it tasted like bark to me.

Great! Crossing my fingers that both Lil Opal and Feral will be in stock when I swing by on Sunday.

If going to Paso Feral will not be in stock, Lil Opal will be, they have a lot and they are closed Wed and Thursday.

There's 750 cases of Lil Opal, if the 500 cases of Feral One have been chilling all this time at Barrelworks, I'd imagine that Lil' Opal will be around for another month or two.

Wow. Then I must've heard wrong that Feral sold out following the first wave. Thanks for the heads up.

They did in Paso, I think Barrelworks had a few more cases that stuck around for a little longer, or they hid some to have for sale during the Lil Opel release. Either way I doubt Feral One is around anymore.

 

[FBIinformant]

There was no hiding involved or no restock for the event. I was at Barrelworks the past 3 weekends. Two weeks prior to Lil' Opal, they had the shelf stocked to the brim with Feral One's. The next week (a week prior to Lil' Opal's release), they still had them stocked on the shelf.

I can't speak for the weeks before, but given the fact that Barrelworks is only open 3 days out of the week and for limited hours, I'd imagine that the reason they stay on the shelf is the same reason Parabola, Sucaba and Velvet Merkin are chilling there. There's just a limited window of when to get them.

I'm sure if I stop by this weekend, or even the following, they'll still have Feral one's on the shelf.

Limited hours helps, but in general beers hang out longer in this area.

Hah, good question. I didn't notice that until now and I don't recall anything different about those.

 

[cardinalbruintriton]

Just my luck. I visit Barrelworks yesterday and find out that Feral sold out on Saturday. At least I had some on tap!

I'm really enjoying Firestone Walker Easy Jack. I think I'll go buy another 6-pack later today.
