Beer inside is pretty good, too.

Damn it all, why can't my NW trip happen 2 months sooner?

 

[waltersrj]

I really hope that the inevitable "**** show" isn't too bad Saturday. Hard Liver being the same day will hopefully mellow the crowd a little bit at least. Regardless it shall be fun. HolyMtn can do no wrong.

I think it's more likely that the Hard Liver push happens later because of the Holy Mountain release. I'm heading down around 9:30 and there will be a few bottles to share in line, so stop by and bring a coffee cup.

 

[waltersrj]

If this eventually turns into overnight pre-2014 Hair of the Dog releases I'm just going to burn down Seattle.

How many cases of MS are you guys selling Saturday? HolyMtn

 

[wethorseblanket]

If people didn't announce their intentions to get there multiple hours early, maybe the release would be less of a cluster and people could just show up, maybe 11, 11:30, 12 and just get in line and get bottles? No? That's not how it works? OK.

I'm already there. **** you very much

You really think the difference between there being a line or not Saturday is a few people declaring they're going to show up at the ridiculously early hour of 9:30 to share a few beers?

 

[wethorseblanket]

i didn't mean just in this thread specifically.

 

[Podunkparte]

Sure, but regardless of people talking about showing up early, there is a stated release time so there would have been a line anyway. That's just the nature of the beast. The only way there isn't a huge rush even before opening is with a silent release.

 

[wethorseblanket]

I know there will be a line regardless. No way to avoid that. I guess I'm just lamenting the frenzied "SEE YOU THERE AT 8AM" posts. Selfishly, because I want the beer and have no desire to wait in line for hours on end. Oh well. I will probably get there before or by 11. If I don't get any bottles, so be it.

 

[mv945]

Chiming in as a fan of mid-week releases, even silent releases, for the smaller bottle counts. Selfishly, since I work downtown, once word gets out (via social media, websites like this one, or whatever), I can easily hop on a bus, get my bottles, have a pour, and get back to work or home. I would definitely do that for this Midnight Still release, but as it is I will not be going. I don't think there would be any issue of the brewery not selling through the allotment, it just would be less of a fiasco of parking/line hassles. I love HM though and will continue to visit (at other times).

 

[waltersrj]

So which of you homies do I get to see Saturday morning? I miss my Podunkparte and don't think I've ever met wethorseblanket . Should be fun.

 

[wethorseblanket]

I have to keep my identity secret, I'm a big player in the local muling/raffle/secondary market scene.

 

[waltersrj]

Thank you for an awesome morning HolyMtn ! The release was very well set up and Midnight Still is freaking killer (imagine that...they made another amazing beer)! Cheers to you guys!

 

[wethorseblanket]

I just opened one. No comments yet as it is still sitting in front of me but I finally opened one of my Misere bottles last night and it's one of my favorite beers ever made in Washington.

 

[Podunkparte]

9:30 AM to 10 PM drinking fests are fun!

Eye'm drunk

 

[ggfunk]

Looks like I have a reason to go to Seattle. Any recommendations for day of week to visit?

[janky]

[LuxWanderer]

Every day that they're open

Fixed it for you

 

[wethorseblanket]

MOAR BOTTLES PLZ.

 

[waltersrj]

HolyMtn can you please make a Boysenberry version of your Clarette/Phosphene beers or Boysenberry Table? I give you permission to name it Ryan after myself of course!

Also I still really want a Gin barrel aged Phosphene.

I know you guys brew beers solely based upon what the PNW TB members tell you...

 

[Podunkparte]

Said it Sat, the ability to make so many Brett heavy wild ales, and then to make such a rich roasty BA imp stout in the same small facility is impressive.

Nice work with Midnight Still guys. That DemonSlayer (sp?... drinking) though is amazing
