Looks like BnV got in more Hommage and Golden Blend....abundance of riches just keeps getting more abundant.

And you need riches to afford them! But yeah, awesome they show up here even though they aren't cheap. Beats the secondary market of course.

It seems like those bottles went from like $40 to $60 in one season. Damn new money.

I thought new money didn’t care about lambic?

Where is all the Younger talk?

 

[sdreaper]

Where is all the Younger talk?

Right now, it consists of others making fun of the line that started at Toro.

I personally was in Encinitas last night and got my ticket for my younger pour at EAH, keg gets tapped on sunday at noon. But you need the ticket to get a pour. Whatever is left over come monday is then ticketless. They also secured 2 kegs this year, no talk on when the 2nd keg is being tapped.

There was a line? LOL. NewMoney are doing it all wrong.

I'm contemplating stopping by for lunch. The past three years I've been able to walk in at lunch and grab a couple pours when they tap in the morning. ****, I think last year it lasted until at least 3pm.

Livewire tapped it last night too. No word on whether it even kicked.

reidjoshua was providing a play by play since he lives close enough to see it. Quite entertaining.

Definitely changed his mind when he did the sandiegoville article back in early January. That article stated there would be a tasting room and it would open mid-to-late 2019. I personally thought that was a really tight timeline. I hope that Alex takes a look at what WildBarrel offered and what has happened with that membership before Invoak offerings up theirs.

Sure sounds like that's what he's hoping for, anyway.

Maybe we will possibly get our beers someday?

Rip Current's caught in a rip is my favorite triple. I will stand in line for that. I want more of that.

I put my vote behind Societe's The Miser.

First nerds were in line at 0800. Opened at 1030. 2 kegs kicked in 90min.

wow, that's actually impressive. i was just about to head over there to see if they had any. thanks for saving me the trouble.

 

[souredstouts]

arren had gifted me a piano I found by browsing this area of Talkbeer. Welp, I have ran out of room and need to send it to a new home. Checking here to see if anyone wants it. It's upright and large. It took 4 strong guys to move and fit into a small pickup trucks bed. Just ask you (and a couple strong people) to come pick it up as I'm now truckless. Also, it's free!

 

[sdreaper]

Public tickets are on sale right now at EAH for a PtY pour on sunday. It is a cash-only thing. Pay for ticket (which is a little card), return on sunday, exchange ticket for pour any time after noon, enjoy pour, go home.

 

[richiesd]

anyone doing obriens tomorrow(today)?

 

[Sebowski1]

I'm curious what everyone is charging for Younger. Post a price when you see it. Got it twice yesterday at awesome spots.
Small Bar $7
Live Wire $6
Both in their "half pour" or high abv glasses. Not sure if those are 8 or 10oz

 

[sdreaper]

EAH (Encinitas Ale House) is $10 for a 12oz pour. A bit more on the pricey end but last I remember 100% gets donated.

 

[Tyrsis]

Had Expo last night at Toro. Pretty darn good tbh

 

[quetzalcoatl]

I’m hoping I can stumble into pty in the next week but Oh well if not. Can’t wait for the carnival of caffeination

 

[SerenityNow]

I’ve heard nothing about Younger nor have I searched for it. Shockingly not on the newsletter for Obriens and that was ideally where I would have had some being so close. Anything pty on tomorrow? At Toro?

Update- looks like Toro is getting it Sunday. Sweet since I needed to pick up nearby at Bine & Vine anyway. Feels like this is happening earlier this year...

The O'Brien's newsletter from yesterday morning mentioned they were tapping a keg today. The next keg goes on at 5 pm on Tuesday apparently while tickets for their charity keg go on sale on Wednesday.

I liked this year's version of Younger. I live down the street from Live Wire now so it was nice to be able to walk over and get a pour in a relaxed setting.

But pretty dangerous to live within a short walk to Live Wire

Yous was there too!?

Very true so I've been avoiding it as long as possible. It was the first time I'd gone since I moved to the new place, so I'm fairly proud of that, haha.

Yup! I showed up later in the night with a couple friends from out of town to try the beer and hangout with jan63.

Resident's triple IPA (Resident 3viiiL) holds it's own against any triple IPA you can name. Great hop character and a welcome dryness at 10.5%. So under the radar.
