The NEBCO Lookout Thread

Fat Ten-Er #14 is on. Hoppy red with Amarillo, Mosaic and Galaxy.

 

[DrWangerBanger]

There were about 5 other people there around 5pm. Seriously crazy how much the crowd is affected by a lack of the bot

 

[lambandtunaphish]

IST, Bot, Hag and Fat Ten-Er #14 on tap today.

 

[MooltiPass]

Ugh, I told myself I wouldn't go today and consciously left my growlers at home to stop myself from doing so since I doubted they'd have anything I really wanted. Why you gotta IST me like that NEBCO?

I mean, I guess I could use a new 32 ounce growler, I've been totally running low on those lately. It's not like I have a ton of them. Not at all like that.

 

[pjs234]

The question is how much IST do they have? The last time they put it on, it was not really advertised that they were only putting on a little bit, and it only lasted for the first hour or two.

 

[MooltiPass]

I'd guess this is probably a batch that was brewed to make next years BAIST, so who knows. I doubt it's as small a quantity as the last go round but I also bet it's made up of the leftovers from whatever they're barrel aging.

 

[Jon1]

Just stopped at NEBCO for the first time tonight, awesome place! IST is still on, not sure how long it will last but I believe he told me this batch would see very limited distro- maybe 20 cases.

 

[purephase]

This batch of IST on for fills right now might be the best I've had fresh. I usually only love the BA and cask versions and merely like the base, but this one's awesome. I think the smoke is a bit more present than the last release from the end of the year but the chocolate and coffee notes are still there in abundance too.

Looks like Gandhi-Bot will end up being renamed: http://cthousegop.com/2015/01/new-england-brewing-co-agrees-to-rename-gandhi-bot-beer/

This too.

 

[Juan Gueuzeman]

I'm not so sure the rebrand is any better.

oh wait....

 

[DrWangerBanger]

Eh, who cares. Beer will stay the same and they were getting death threats, so I don't blame them at all.

 

[ilovestouts]

The terrorists have won.


Interpret that however you may like.

 

[Juan Gueuzeman]

yeah i agree with wangerbanger, they made the right choice, but i still feel it sets a really ****** precedent
also worry it could upset their brand of creativity and humor. they could begin to second guess about names, designs, where before they were free from these types of concerns (excluding the Storm Trooper incident). i just want nebco to be happy and free from the all madness

of course it's what's inside the can that counts most! and i would never let it phase my enjoyment of a good product!

Does that mean my Gandhi-Bot shirt becomes a collectible?

It's either a medium or a large. I got it in July and have worn it often since then. It's a bit ironic as I've never had Gandhi-Bot before.

****, they better change the name of Fuzzy Baby Ducks before PETA gets upset.

Are teh G-bot snifters always available at the brewery? I think ill be heading down there at the end of February but I was hoping to grab one of those while they are still available...

 

[DrWangerBanger]

I don't think they've had any of those since this whole thing started.

 

[Senator Spaceman]

They keep saying that there are more on the way. They'll go fast, though. I wonder if they'll implement a limit on the number of glasses one can buy.
