Upland Brewing Secret Barrel Society

[snowrs1]

I have no idea on bottle count, don't really care. It was some good stuff and I have enough to last for a bit

 

[snowrs1]

I know 4 and we are all dumb as rocks.

 

[ridglens]

I haven't seen any LS around Bloomington, but haven't really been looking. They did have some Dark Synth at Yogis, but dude's been known to put second-hand beer on the menu before, and he's likely a SBS member.

was this stuff any good? I've been disappointed as hell the last few times i've had upland, but i'm probably just jaded on them at this point...

Count me as 5 and I haven't lost a ******* lottery yet! YESSS!!!

Dark Synth hit at least two Binny's in Chicago this week. No clue if it's hitting anywhere else in Chicagoland. I think it was one case to each store and they were gone soon after twitter mentioned it.

 

[ridglens]

Peach and persimmon bit sold out apparently, just grabbed one of each. I'll give them another shot!

Effin Binny's

I liked them, I preferred Dark over light but tat is just me. I really like the next two Vino coming out, and of course SR5

Oh if she's the girl that blew me in the parking lot those were tips, not technically for sale per se.























Seriously though I hadn't heard anything about that. Know if it was Bloomington or Indy by chance?

I was the one who heped ncaudle out. My sister in law was seventh in line at the Bloomington location for the public sale (I lost all my entries for the lottery). She took a friend with her and she was able to land two each of Peach, Persimmon, Darksynth, and Lightsynth. I'm guessing they didn't have very much Lightsynth, but she didn''t let me know exact numbers. It was definitely available though at Bloomington that morning.




Not sure how her BF would feel about the mouth hugs she was giving you though

Hopefully he's ok with it.

I just hope she doesn't have the herpes. Well, at least the mouth type.

Thoughts on Dragonfruit and Lychee?

 

[Zapy1]

Dragonfruit was amazing when we tried it during the tour

 

[jonallan1]

Agreed. The Rambutan was good as well.

 

[snowrs1]

Good enough for a max allocation? I maxed out the Vino to give you an idea.

 

[MordorMongo]

Members only beers that will be instawhales?

Guess I'm not a fool after all.......



























Ok, I still am, but slightly less of one. Slightly.

Hey Mordor, what are your thoughts on the Barrel Society at this point? Do you feel it was worth it? Have the exclusives been really good? I'm honestly completely in the dark regarding this Reserve Club - I haven't heard anything about exclusive bottles, events, or if members are generally happy being part of it.

I've been able to purchase about 4,000 bottles with no worrying about lotteries. Typically 6 of every release. I don't recall which all were SBS only besides these two current ones (Dragonfruit and Rambutan). I guess it boils down to how much one likes Upland really. Before they went full retard Bruery level sour I enjoyed them a lot more. This year I've felt many were just too ******* sour to enjoy.


Perhaps I'm just a giant pussy though? Verdict is still out on that one.


If it is identical next year will I join? Yes sir I will.

Guess that's confusing as ****, eh?


I'm drunk.

 

[Beerontwowheels]

Still not upset I got my money back! Maybe you wanna send me some though, right Scottie? .

















You're ******* adorable when you are drunk...

My 34 Sour Reserve batch 5's mock you from afar sir.

NO SOUR FOR YOU!

Real talk, the ones I've liked I've enjoyed, the ones that have been so sour I hate myself have made me hate myself for thinking maybe they would tone the ******* sour down a tad.


Hey Upland......tone the ******* sour down a tad.....who do you think you are? Patrick Rue?

 

[Beerontwowheels]

It's cuz I called you Scottie, isn't it? Ah well. Maybe next year.

If you don't care about your enamel enough to heed my warnings then so be it.

What are you looking for?

Just don't say I didn't ******* warn you.

 

[snowrs1]

I can't believe I am saying this but, He is absolutely correct, if they could bring town the sour just one notch I would drink these every day. I really enjoyed the Vino's, and Viola. Peach and Persimmon were too sour for me.

I just want that closet aged SBS certificate and a night alone with you to watch AGT.













Honestly haven't had much Upland. I've got a Tilquin with your name on it though. Can add some locals to get you worked up. Send me something in return?

Come drink some Upland sours with me Matt. My sister in law has got that **** on lockdown living in Indy. Kiwi and Strawberry kind of sucked. But I thought Persimmon, Lightsynth, Darksynth, vinosynth (both), and Viola were money.
