#newmoneyboner




























It does sound really good...

Totally is a newmoney boner, but no ***** given. Sounds ridiculous.

Buckley- Imperial Breakfast Stout with Vanilla, Maple Syrup, and Dark Matter Coffee 12.7% 60ibu

I really hope Buckley is one of the society beers for the next release. How amazing would that be to not have to worry about crowds/lines/bottle-chasing!!?!?!!?

I'll settle for it being on tap, and then me stomping my feet like a child questioning why it wasn't one of the bottles.

Decided to open my last bottle of Red Wine Obelus and... This is killing it right now. Beautiful clearness, effervescent, the wine accenting the saison sweetness.

Very pumped about next Sunday.

Crossing my fingers that we'll get an email update this week. I saw Chris mention something about vintage beers at the party in a vague FB post. Not sure if that means bottles or on draft. I'd be happy with either.

On another note, drinking my first Hop Drank and I'm in love. The Brett and the Mosaic really shine with that soft, peppery yeast filling the background sweetness.

Hoping for Hop Drank at the release. Couldn't get downtown for bottles and would love to try that one!

I'm a sucker for brett-heavy pales and it's definitely that. It's a solid substitute for Bitter Monk, and was a few dollars cheaper.

That's the beer that convinced me to buy the membership. Had it on tap twice before and decided I needed more of his beer in my face hole.


Anyone showing up early for the bottle share? I might be having a late night on saturday, but I would like to get over there early and open some goodies with some of the folks in this thread.

I'll plan on getting there early for a bottle share. Looks like the weather isn't supposed to be too miserable, though hopefully that won't matter and Chris will get us inside.

I'll be there an hour or so early like last time. Took me 5 minutes to get through the bottle line and made the experience much more enjoyable.

 

[SecretSquirrel]

I'll prob get there early and leave right after getting my stuff

prob stick around for one, but I'm not a fan of being that far north and drinking on Sundays...

 

[mjohnson171]

Dunt, Mark, Treebs - I'm in for bottle share beforehand.

 

[Rizdac]

Would be in for a bottle share before if I can get my ass there early enough.

Also wondering if I can get my Transient growler filled with something on tap.

Good question...

Great. I'll plan on getting there around 10 as well.

I'll be bringing mine just in case, hadn't even thought of it. Many golf claps for you.

Edit: Just sent an email over to Chris asking about this so we'll see.

 

[PHBoiler]

If there's no indoor option, couldn't somebody just bring their van?

 

[PHBoiler]

I'm going to try to make it early but make no promises since I'm coming from St Charles plus have the Penrose release on Saturday. It'd be nice to meet everyone that hangs out here on TB.

 

[disapowzment]

I have room for 1 in the truck PHBoiler

Be careful, PHBoiler. I've been in that truck...

I'll be there an hour early or so too. Look forward to seeing you all, hopefully the weather isn't poo.

"I've received a few emails about this, so I figured I would address it. Please Read Carefully.

Every member will receive a growler along with a free fill as part of their membership, though this will not be given out till the second release event, and will be a beer that we brew up special for your growler, that we feel is best enjoyed fresh. (Last period was a wet hopped farmhouse ale)

That being said, we will allow members from the first period to refill their growlers, and all members to purchase and fill new growlers after 3:00pm. The reason for the later time is because we want to offer all members a chance to try our beer on draft while there, as well as having a line that moves at a decent pace. Adding growlers to the mix will slow things down, and because we only have a very small amount of some of these beers, risk their availability if people start filling at the beginning of the event.

Thank you all for your understanding and excitement for the beers we will have on draft.

Cheers,
Chris Betts
Transient Artisan Ales"

I've got to leave around 2 so sucks for me, but for those staying looks like you're in good shape.

 

[mychalg91]

We usually get there early as well. Will be bringing a minivan full of bro's (no homo).

Just a casual question/observation. The society is limited to what, 150ish members, right? Last membership session we were allows to bring 1 additional guest. It sounds like verbiage this time is that you're allowed to bring guests, as in no limit.
Anyone else concerned logistically? I'm all for allowing more people to try the beers but Aquanaut is only so big, and it's cold out, and there's only so much draft beer and bottles available. And last release it was annoying having to stand in line for 5-10 minutes to get a draft pour (granted that was peak time around 1-2pm and it did die down).

Anyone else like me and prefer not to increase the crowd any more than what was at last release party?

I hope that it was just poor wording and it's still 1 guest per person. Or at the very least, most people abide by that line of reasoning. Otherwise, I agree. I will become a logistical **** show which has evaded the past two events and what made the events really awesome and chill.

Just sent Chris an e-mail on that, will report back when I hear something.

The first email he sent said "You may bring a guest or two."
I was planning on bringing 2 but I may want change that.

As for the bottle share, I'll be there ahead of time with some goodies and would love to meet some of you guys (or gals).
