Last night was awesome.
Thanks!Any idea if any of the special stuff didn't kick last night? IE: Redrum?
Happy birthday, dude!
I heard Redrum was still on at closing... also, as of right now, it is on their tap list at prime16.com.Any idea if any of the special stuff didn't kick last night? IE: Redrum?
Happy birthday, dude!
A bittersweet week here at NEB as we say goodbye to James. We're all very happy for him and his new brewing future in New Mexico, he will be missed dearly as well as his never empty bag of Gummybears. We're taking him out to Delaney's this Thursday after work- please join us and toast him a fond buy for now. The truth is- we traded James for 4 delicious burritos!
According to Twitter....Galaxy by the end of next week.
Based on what Craig told me last Friday (while admitting he is often wrong) Fat Ten-er #6 (cilantro/lime saison) should be out before Galaxy or Gold Stock. Seems like Galaxy might be released first but wouldn't be surprised to see them both out as soon as next week.
Still waiting on Gold Stock....
Also, there's been a bit of chatter about another batch of FBD. That would be awesome, but please bring on the Galaxy!
FT #6 is the non-barrel aged version of the beer that was at EBF, I assume?
@NewEnglandBrew: Filling some wine barrels with a Brett project today. http://t.co/NJNgQV1wi8
https://twitter.com/NewEnglandBrew/status/452138044871942144Galaxy and hag on for growlers today and tomorrow. 668 and Gandhi back next week. Gold stock and fat-10-er #6 shortly after that
Did not have it. Showed up a little before 6 yesterday and it was gone; still probbaly an hour wait for fills, but I didn't stick around. Heard that if you were not in line around 3ish, you didn't get any yesterday. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯FBD came, FBD went. Who had this batch? Same as always?
Still eagerly awaiting Gold Stock.

Eh. "Silent" release on Wed with a lot poured then, word got out for Thursday, so the small amount they had just didn't last. Dude behind me in line said he called earlier in the afternoon and was told it would last until Satuday... so that would bug me if I were him.That annoys me and I don't even live in the area
Yeah, that was awesome being able to grab some bottles last time I was down there early MarchEh.

People can go crazy for this if they want, as long as futue bottle releases remain totally under the radar, like the past RedRum release (lasted at least 4 days I think)

I guess being away from the area for a few years, it's crazy to me how much more popular NEBCO has become. The concept of a line didn't exist back in 2010...
FBD gets people out of bed to swarm the place. From my experiences, lines aren't more than a few people long most of the time. Usually only around opening for people hoping to get in/out early or on holidays (day before this past Thanksgiving had a line inside, all the way to the back of the old building.Yeah, that was awesome being able to grab some bottles last time I was down there early March

Fair enough. I found it odd that I was in a line only 10 minutes after they opened, so that at least explains why.FBD gets people out of bed to swarm the place.

Yeah that's reasonable. I've been stopping in after work, now that they're open until 7 Wed-Fri. Usually I find 5-10 people in there sampling/filling growlers.Fair enough. I found it odd that I was in a line only 10 minutes after they opened, so that at least explains why.
