Not too much wasted space...his De Garde row goes back deep

My enamel is trembling.

Drink De Garde, do not age it!*

Had a lovely Facebook conversation in a local Seattle beer group with a fellow who was apparently banned from de Garde for raffling bottles. He now insists he has "three to seven" mules working for him, and that he no longer needs to make his weekly(!?) trips down from Seattle because of the aforementioned "three to seven" mules. He also claimed to get NINE allocations from the last quarterly party. Oh, and he changed his profile pic to the de Garde logo, ya know...for the lulz. What a world.

I saved a few of the original Stone Bu just for *****. I was randomly at De Garde the next time they released it. When I got home I noticed there was absolutely no difference in the labels whatsoever. Had to physically mark my year old ones, which actually held up fairly nicely with age.

I guess it wasn't clear enough for you, but that's not mine...

From the Instagram comments on that first photo: "Ya I lucked out and converted a room at one of my families office buildings into a cellar."

MUST BE NICE.

Yeah..... Got it.

are you saying not everyone has one of these in their basement?

who tf is this guy?

 

[SSTroller]

who tf is this guy?

I'm pretty sure its domdomdomdom's

Its a rare breed of piebald neckbeard. A new era has emerged. Behold, the art of allocating more refrigerator space than beer. They go by the name aleauteur I believe.


Edit: those are fridges right? Not just shelving made to look like fridges?

Edit Edit: This is 2016. Why in the name of jesus juice would you store your beer, unprotected infront of that much lighting. No ******* wonder people say "this beer didnt cellar for ****, it sucks with age." Ah ha, maybe next time you should age it beside 48 lava lamps instead of 25,000 lumens those dozen shop lights are putting off.

Isn't that SeaWatchman's method of aging lambic? Dangling upside-down from string surrounded by lava lamps? Or maybe fireflies. I forget.

Have you seen the cellar at Ebenezer's Pub?

Yeah, fireflies and twine. It's key.

The idiocy of craft circa 2016:

2 bottles of one of the better BA barleywines (in my opinion) - one from 2010 and one from 2012 - for $55

http://www.mybeercollectibles.com/listing/pelican-mother-of-all-storms-2010-and-2012-bottles/137562

On the same page is a bottle from side project called cuvée de tete and the asking price is $500

Side Project's trade and secondary market values are absolutely insane, moreso than any other brewery in the country. Sometimes I think I'm being trolled by people who have these bottles because I can't believe what they are asking for.

Corey could put dinglebeeries in a beer and people would be asking for Fou Foune + for it.

Side Project could release a barrel-aged marzenbier and #newmoney would have it valued at $200+ right off the bat.

Damn, that moas is basically at retail price. I'm surprised no one has bought it yet.

No lie, I was tempted and might have pulled the trigger if this wasn't the period of festivals, memberships, and other stuff I've already spent my money on. That's a great deal for 2 vintage bottles of MOAS.

 

[uvm2003]

Agreed. MoaS is a personal fave and I may pull the trigger - honestly not sure why I haven't. Exceptional beer with age too, in my experience.

Another thought on this: do Side Project's releases have the highest average ratio of

(bottles put on secondary market/raffled/offered FT for whales/bourbon)/(total bottles)

for any beer releases, or is there another brewery that would take that honor? Seems considering the bottle counts there are always a ****-ton of bottles available, but only via one of the methods mentioned above.

 

[ccbstl]

SP is probably up there when there is more than a 1pp limit. It seems like people try to capitalize on the "omg new SP " hype with their 2nd or 3rd bottles, but then end up not closing anything because of a crazy offer. When people make the offers they do it can be hard to turn down.

I can't think of another. The whole aura surrounding that brewery has turned me off of even trying to trade for their regular-ass non-fruited saisons.

Posted this in RBT too (bottled...?), but this is the first time I've seen someone actually talk down the beer that they're selling for 7.5x the amount of retail.
