Bruery Chocolate Rain, White Oak Available Today

The Bruery has released Chocolate Rain & White Oak today to Reserve Society members.

Chocolate Rain:  Chocolate Rain is an Imperial Stout aged in Bourbon Barrels with cocoa nibs and vanilla beans.  This Decadent version of Black Tuesday is proudly brewed with TCHO Cocoa Nibs.  18.5% ABV.

White Oak:  White Oak is a blended beer– 50% wheatwine aged in Bourbon barrels (we call it “White Oak Sap”), and 50% Mischief (our Golden Strong Ale). Vivid caramel, coconut and vanilla flavors blanketed in a crisp yet robust wheat ale, White Oak is an exercise of balance.

More Bruery Reserve Memberships Released

The Bruery just sent this out…  It’s your LAST chance at being a member of The Reserve Society in 2012…

Hi everybody,

As most of you know, our 2012 Reserve Society sold out extremely quickly on the day that memberships were first put on sale. Since then, we have crunched some numbers with our production team and determined that we can fit some more people into the Society and still guarantee them all of the beers that we have planned without running out.

So, with that note, we have put memberships back online for sale, but like with the first batch, these very well might sell out before the day is done, so don’t hesitate if this was something you were dying to be a part of!

Head to http://society.thebruery.com and pick up your memberships today!

Cheers!
The Bruery

———————————————————————————

A few months back we announced that there would be a change in the way that the Reserve Society would work in the future. We received a lot of feedback from our current members on what they thought of this new concept and after taking a step back and reevaluating our plan, we realized that the majority of the feedback made sense – the Reserve Society shall remain completely intact as it has for the past two years.

The price will be rising, but this rise will go towards a larger supply of included beers (like TWO bottles of Black Tuesday) and we’re working on getting a couple of very cool pieces of quality Reserve Society only merchandise made for you. Also, please note that the tickets for the Initiation Celebration will be sold separately since we realize that not everyone will be able to make it.

Beginning at 10am on November 14th, we will be opening up the Reserve Society to new members and we will be selling memberships through December 31st, or when they sell out. As with the past two years, we have been able to make enough beer to allow a few more members again this year, but the supply is still quite limited, so if you are serious about joining, we recommend purchasing your membership as soon as you can.

Read below for more info on just what being a member of the Reserve Society gets you and hopefully we’ll be seeing you at the initiation party early next year!

Cheers,
The Bruery
