This is great news as frankly, growlers suck. Anyone heard about a time frame? Thanks! Wed Feb 13 05:27:38 -0800 2008 26180 Chinon00 1 3395623 Not sure about which ones they will bottle. I haven't seen anything from them for label applications on the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau site. They bottled an English Barleywine in 22 ounce bottles in celebration for the 275th Anniversary. They were going for around $20 at the brewpub but they may be out of them for the time being. I was told after the first batch sold out, they were going to rebottle more. They also have vintage cellared bottles available for "on premesis" consumption only. It's usually Barley Wines, Imperial Stouts, Belgian Ales, or other high gravity beers that are suitable for aging. Just ask the wait staff, or bartender to see the vintage beer list.

How much time before actual bottling would you need to complete a label application? I would LOVE to have the old standbys like Sunset, Pacific, Chocolate Thunder and please, the relatively newly tapped Desperation IPA. I find that their beers taste even better outside the General (maybe it has something to do with the smell of brewing ingredient which seem to always be in the air there).

Laff is no longer selling sixtels, otherwise, we could make that a reality - right Mike ;) Wed Feb 13 20:26:38 -0800 2008 3392558 160201 ClockworkOrange 2 3397392 That, you are correct!

It was tapped on 2/5 I believe so it may be gone. Thu Feb 14 11:06:56 -0800 2008 3397392 26180 Chinon00
