The Official Modern Times League Of Partygoers & Elegant People Thread

[Xul1]

Now we have Devils Teeth instead of MP so not totally clear if that is part of this line or not but I would assume that it is? I guess we will know sooner or later.

Jacob said at the League preview tasting in August that it ended up being 4 MP barrels and 1 DT barrel. I would guess that there were two Four Roses barrels, one got DT, the other got MP. Considering how many FR single barrel selections K&L does, there should be plenty of those barrels to go around.

And it does see "league exclusive" so I am assuming we will get a crack at them but im also assuming a lot of the ppl that dont normally buy the league sales will step up for the rarities so it may be the first "wahhhhhhh my feelings are hurt" MT sale (besides the league sign ups themselves). I'd love to be wrong about that!

As of the August tasting, Jacob said they were working on a fair way to do it since they anticipate higher demand and there's not enough for everyone to be guaranteed a bottle. It sounded like they were thinking of doing something where you could buy 2 or 3 out of 5 on first pass, then they'd open it up after a couple days, but it sounded like it was still just a partially formulated idea.

Looking forward to whichever of them I can get, and to drinking them rather quickly...

anyone know if Accumulated Knowledge is gonna get rebrewed + distro'd?

I for one would not be disappointed by that happening. Maybe a canning run? That would be cool.

League members - check your email, re: next preview tasting.

 

[smithj21541]

Good stuff. I like the direction the ABV is going on these special canning releases.

Limits and pricing

 

[drbenzo1]

Underworld Dreams should be a 6 pack at that price!

 

[rcubed1]

Fill me in Benzo!

 

[SanDiegoJoe2011]

$17.99 / 4 pack.

Pretty much in line with Monkish, Trillium, etc.

ABV: 6.1%
Price: $17.99+tax & BPT fee
4-Pack Limit: 10
Total Quantity: 2200

-------------

I just don't see how this isn't a 6 pack at 6.1%? Unless there is a true insane amount of expensive hops in there. I remember this on tap a few months ago but not $18/4pack awesome... however I'll prob get 1 or 2. Ugh

 

[rcubed1]

Southern Passion is a tough hop to get. The rest are more available, although on the more expensive side.

My guess is that they are buying a lot of non-contracted hops for inflated prices due to the lack of supply. The good news is that the 2016 crop has been harvested and mostly packaged at this point.

 

[smithj21541]

I agree on pricing feeling a bit steep, but I do like the direction the ABV has been going.

 

[rcubed1]

I'm starting to wonder if I could fool you guys with some carbonated orange, passion fruit, and pineapple juice with some vodka and a touch of hop extract added.

Pfft. You think it even needs to taste of hops.

Guess I got a new cocktail to make this weekend...

Don't forget the all-purpose flour.

 

[Shakedwnst]

Am I going to be able to grab a 4 pack of this while I'm in town if I'm not a league member or should I start begging one of you guys to grab me some?

There is a public sale Monday. Pickups begin on the 20th. So if you are here on or after that you should be good to go.

 

[Shakedwnst]

In SD 10/24-28 so I'll have to check out the public sale Monday. Thanks!

Like I haven't made a soda like that and then add vodka to it (well, I used mango instead of pineapple)

Same as last time around Didn't come close to maxing out and still managed to pretty much spend most of my self imposed beer budget.

 

[nanobrew1]

Any members have any open slots? There are a couple things I want to grab but I know I will **** up and miss the sale time.

Yeah I barely touched a lot of the DT bottles but maxed on Underworld since friends and long-distance league members asked for a couple 4pks.

With 1900 for each DT variant you should be fine but I think almost all members should have open slots, otherwise I think it was around the tune of $1300 or so before fees & tax to completely max out.

I'm in north county but still have a lot open. If you can meet me there on the 23rd for pick-up I can probably help out.

Thanks for the offer, unfortunately I will be in Orange County that day.

Plus I just looked at the prices, damn they are high. I was thinking of getting some for upcoming BIFs and LIFs.



I would still be down for a 4 pack of the IPA if anyone has any spares.

BA MP with coffee had a big'ol slimy thing in the bottom of the bottle. Kinda gross - domed the entire bottle anyway though
