You can renew your membership now. It went up $50 from last year. Guess the move to the source isnt gonna pay for itself.

 

[DenverBeerDrinker]

What's with the Tin Tacker? Have no use for the one I got this year.

Also didn't list Persica as one of the bottles.

The 2014 Cellar Reserve will run similar to the 2013 Cellar Reserve with a few exceptions that include a price increase to $350 (+tax). Below is an outline of what will be included next year:

Cellar Reserve 2014
- 2014 Membership Card
- (2) Cellar Reserve exclusive stemware glasses
- (1) Long-sleeve Cellar Reserve Member’s shirt*
- (1) Cellar Reserve Member’s Tin Tacker*
- Access to purchase specialty bottle releases at 15% discount (subject to allocation limits)
- First right of refusal for 2015 Cellar Reserve membership
- 15% discount on all taproom purchases @ The Source
- Future planned Cellar Reserve member events (additional charges apply)
*There will be an option to purchase additional shirts and tin tackers in the near future

The 2014 membership will also include (10) different Barrel-Aged sour beers (each bottle release includes (2) 375 ml bottles per release, with additional purchases available if the yield permits) to be released throughout the year. Cellar Reserve beers bottled for 2014 will ONLY be sold through this program and will not be available in our taproom or at retail (except for the odd keg/case or two for special events). Below is a list of the anticipated beers for 2014.

- (2x, 375ml) Dark Origins - Fruit Sour*

No ****, if anyone wants this years and next BM me. Not real thrilled about the price increase but i'm in for another year.

 

[DenverBeerDrinker]

Wonder if there is a special beer for the people who renew like there was this year?

 

[poonamibaxter]

**** me, they are charging tax on it this year so it is $378

Damn! That's a 25% price increase

 

[poonamibaxter]

If there is I hope it isn't a mistake beer like this years.

If I didn't live here so I could take advantage of the 15% off at the tap room i would have to think about this one. I don't care about a tshirt and glasses plus I'll throw away the tin tacker. At $378 for 20 beers plus shipping this is getting to $20+ per 375ml.

You'll take it, and YOU'LL LIKE IT!

If it helps it's a long sleeve shirt

 

[ASUBeer]

When are new sign ups. I NEED this in my life.

Unfortunately, you're right. Damn it!

 

[MKtheGeneral]

Ha, I was pissed as it's $50+tax more plus the cost of a tshirt, even long sleeve, is cheaper than a hoodie. Boo hiss.

 

[FishPondManager]

$50 price increase and tax? **** this. I'm out. I hope one of you gets my membership.

 

[MordorMongo]

Even at this pricepoint I think this is worth it. Will bang again/10. They are certainly pushing it though....thankfully the beer is good enough I can justify it.

 

[MordorMongo]

But then what the **** will I send you? You win more Upland than me, you are Bruery and now Crooked Stave?

You expect me to actually ******* leave the house, don't you?

We can just order each other random surprise boxes from Belgian retailers and have them shipped to each other's house.

Spring we are doing this.

 

[njbeernerd]

Did they miss a line for Persica?

 

[njbeernerd]

Hopefully the increase in price + tax will give you some open spots. Anyone know if they're expanding the number of members?

 

[Rempo]

******* Upland. See what happens...

 

[MKtheGeneral]

Did they miss a line for Persica?

I don't think so, I think they're hoping the Apricot replaces our need for those kinds of fruits. I think that their lead times with Persica are screwed up given the early 2013 batch not being up to par and Chad making two different blends. Besides the price raise (and tax inclusion,) the lack of Persica was by far the biggest disappointment.

 

[Beerontwowheels]

What, no ******* certificate? This is some ********!

 

[ShawDeuce221]

I wonder if the tax inclusion will carry over into each beer purchased, a la Bruery.

I hope not

 

[DenverBeerDrinker]

Did the price of glassware go up at The Source also? The glasses were $5 at the old taproom. Thought I saw a post where someone said they were $10 now. Didn't check the last time I was in there.
