Wow. They have taken it up a couple notches with this expansion. Extremely impressive.

Trying to think of a scenario of how I might lose a 750ml growler in the back of my fridge, especially of something like Nelson single hop.

It wasn't even in the fridge, I found a ninja box that I had packed but forgotten to send for a few months. So the poor growler wasn't even refrigerated for the whole time. A real surprise lol

 

[DigDug1810]

Can't wait to get up there next week. Any idea what these tasters look like?

Wasn't CD 12 originally supposed to be the next CD release?

 

[Adam Jackson]

Makes me wish I had saved my BA Everett instead of opening it up the day after getting it so I could try it and the next one side by side. Extended aged GOM was night and day compared to the first release even though it was only 2-3 months longer in oak.

I've been proposing this to a few locals but if a group of you want to get together and buy a vacation home on Caspian a sort of 'beer geek timeshare', let me know.

As for the rest of the releases, I am excite. I have an old shoe at the house that gets all of my loose change and cash once a week. gonna have to fill it more generously from now on. All of these upcoming releases will at least be $20 each. That plus case limits on saisons has me in the poor-house lately.

I have a BA Everett still. I smell a waterbury bottleshare a-brewin....

Lake Caspian is my favorite spot in VT. Spending time up there is what introduced me to HFS.

I was trying be the voice of reason!(that's rare)
"I'm going back in guys"
"We're losing growlers of beers guys"(to the cold, even though they were inside)

 

[DougOLis]

Frank has a lot of good beer. And cheese.

**** HF, what kind of cheese does Frank have?

Does anyone know anything else about Aaron? English/American style, or anything about duration/source of barrels?

English I believe.

Does anyone know anything else about Aaron? English/American style, or anything about duration/source of barrels?

I believe both the barleywine and old ale have spent a number of years in barrels, not months. I remember an old twitter reply from ages ago when Shaun answered a question about why no barleywines with something like "in barrels..." or whatever vague answer it was. I may be completely making this up though. Given how long recent BA Everett and GoM were in barrels, I wouldn't be surprised if they were aged a very long time.

Can't wait for all of these! I for one am excited to taste a HF barleywine and old ale.

The only important question is this: anyone already in line for Ann?

 

[user 307594]

From March 29, 2012, "Brewing Aaron this week. Our first Barleywine - destined for Bourbon and, if they arrive in time, Port barrels. Aaron was my great great great Grandfather and the proprietor of the Tavern up the hill in the early 1800s. Our logo (glass) is from a sign that still hangs in his house..."

Neither have I, but I bet he changed the recipe or something. I can pre-taste it.

I don't even care about the taste as long as it's dipped in beeswax again. That smell was awesome!
