"On Weds., July 15, we will release a new iteration of Arthur, this one conditioned in stainless tanks and dry hopped with Styrian Golding hops and then bottle conditioned.

$10 per bottle, 2 per person"

yeah expect the stainless part, I guess it will showcase the dry hopping more then putting it in oak?

definitely... not everything has to be wood aged

I agree but that short time the saisons sit in wood makes them magical

The DH Arthur is really great. I hope the experiment goes on with more variations from time to time as I really enjoy it and think it is best when fresh.

Little confused here -- rwitter, you used to brew for Duck-Rabbit, right? I remember the name back on BA. Are you HF-affiliated now?

He'll answer, but he was at Siren in UK for a few years and is now at HF.

Cool?

Awesome. I remember he apprenticed in a similar program as Shaun

I also recalled that he was an abrasive, sarcastic dick on the forums. I felt like we were spirit brothers.

I went from DR to run a brewery in Denmark that Shaun got off the ground. Did that for 3 years then when to England to start a brewery. Did that until coming back to the US this year to work at HF.

Does anybody know if CD 14 will last past wednesday? Usually if stock is getting low they drop limits or do not sell the beer in the bottles only line and that has not happened yet on the retail site.

Have to say I like the new system. With numbered tickets seems more relaxed, no rush to fill it out like at Treehouse. Having said that I don't know if they're low on cd 14, but I don't know the bottle only "line" even exists anymore with the new system.

It does when you walk in there is a sign that says "bottles only" line, it is the line you get into when your name/number get called.

My point is that with the numbered system I don't know it matters . Everybody fills out a ticket, bottles only or not. So if I get there before you and I'm getting 5 growelers my number is ahead of yours . The order gets filled first, even though you're ticket is.for.bottles.only.

That sign has been there forever, they may have just not.taken it down yet.

Although, I'm frequently wrong.

I purchased bottles only on Friday, you can still just walk up to the register (assuming there isn't a line) and get bottles sans ticket. I'm guessing that if something's running low you'll need to fill out a numbered ticket, aka wait in the growler line.

Pretty small experiment at first I assume? With such a low limit I'm hoping this was the first batch of many more to come.

The thought of Dry Hopped Soigne is making me thirsty.

I don't suppose anyone with a DD coming from MA to FoFA has room for two more people?

 

[averagjoe3]

ISO FoFA DD
Got Cash or a thank you box for any of you kind folks who could hook up a ride from Waterbury (or elsewhere if need be- could change lodging plans) for my girlfriend and I.

dat CD14 is really tasty. Some nice HF sach yeast character on the nose a bit akin to Florence, tons of barrel and some firm tart acidity and mineral flavors. Thanks MooltiPass !

05/14 arthur, 01/15 soigne, 02/15 suarez.... drink them now. Some of the best, if not the best iterations I've had of them all. Especially the arthur, it's unreal good right now

Welp, I suppose some gang bangers in Houston will be happy. Glad I have more though.

Price?

That's just silly

I had no clue Shaun was on MBC.

They were $120. A buddy bought the only one on the shelf Thursday afternoon and I saw someone else buy the only one on Friday afternoon. There may have been more earlier.

Seems like he has a standard markup on the mags.

Anna mag was $40. 1.5L of Anna as 2x750s runs $20. Exactly double.
CD14 mag was $120. 1.5 of CD14 as 4x375s runs $60. Exactly double.
