Imperial ESB Collaboration Ale

Post by PEIBeerGuy » Tue Dec 13, 2011 9:54 pm

I must have missed this on here... didn't see it anywhere on here today 'til Nash's post popped up on my blogroll.

So... who wants to store some for an Aleanders pick up some time? ;)
I'd personally be game for... two or three.

We need to develop a Underground Brewroad that delivers with regularity.
Know any regular mules we could use?

I linked to it here but it got somewhat buried. It was great to see some of you out for the release and equally awesome to have the Propeller crew over for a few X)

I'll be in Halifax next Wednesday/Thursday and back on PEI Friday night (the 23rd). I can deliver, but can't guarantee it'll be in before the 25th. We'd just need to find someone to acquire the beer for us.

Oh and as far as regularity is concerned, I'm on PEI every 3-4 weeks and am normally in Halifax. I'll be back there full time on January 1st.

If there's an IESB beer training coming this way, I think the SAAZ crew would definitely be in for a half dozen or so bottles as well if possible. I'm usually on PEI every 4 to 6 weeks myself, so I don't mind lugging beer along with me for folks if it can be brought as far as Amherst.

I haven't forgotten about your other delivery. Current plan is to pass through Amherst on Wednesday toward Halifax, Thursday morning back to Saint John. I can add some IESB to that drop if you want.

You might not have forgotten, but it slipped my mind. :crazy: :lol:

That would be awesome, I'll send some cash along with you when you pick up Bobby's beer. :cheers2:

Perfect. Now let's see how many of these we need and see if someone (preferably Bobby, to lower the number of pickups I have to do) can acquire the beer. I'm looking for 2 or 3 (or 4, whatever makes making a complete case easiest). Here's a handy spreadsheet. I don't know what the cost per bottle is so I put $5. If anyone knows, please update that field.

I can be the beer collector on the Halifax end. How many should I get?

Did someone on this beer train also want some Garrison Spruce? I'm going to pick some up on Friday. They sold out in a day last year.

Thanks - I'll try and wrap this up by early Thursday evening so that you know how many to get. We'll figure out how to get you some cash by then too. Do you do EMT?

Oh. I thought it was able to be edited by logged in people only. I'll change it to a free for all I guess.

I just talked to the boys at Propeller and they expect to sell completely out today, plus they had to short me on my order of bottles for the pub.

If you want some I'd act now!

Thanks for the heads up. Kyle, could you grab a few cases? Worst case scenario, the brewnosers will snap them up. Perhaps 3? Hogie, PEIBeerGuy, and me appear to be interested in ~3 each, which is a case and a half. Plus Jeff Smith.

We better make that 6 for me, as I'm sure Andy and Graham will at least like to try a bottle or two. I can send money (e-transfer) for my share if it's needed beforehand.

Unless there are two Grahams, one has spoken for 2 bottles now. Perhaps four if available? I'll send KMcK a text just in case.

I think I had better go home and get the van for this order.
