I was in at the Brewery 2 weeks ago and told tye retail person we had treked in from the tri city area in hopes of buying a few stray bottles of project X beers that may be kicking about. We were told no such commodity exists. What's up with this? Does your retail staff have it in for Tri City guys?? :wink:

Sometimes it's tough to predict when we'll have specialty bottles available, especially during the craziness of the summer.

But we definitely have a stockpile of Miami Weiss bottles available now which should last us for a few weeks. As we did a larger batch of it, we're selling them for $4.95 a bottle.

Please inform your retail staff so in the future those who drive in from the outlands are not met with blank stares when they ask for excess P-X bottled beers :wink:

BTW is the "Lackey's Flaskey" just "Lackey's Caskey" in a bottle verson (bottle=flaskey)

Yes. And it took an entire afternoon with our best marketing people to come up with that pearl!

You're in deep trouble. The marketing dept. seems to be wading in the shallow end of the gene pool. :lol:

They are out of the My Bitter Wife and My Bitterer Wife now.

The girl behind the counter was of the opinion that they would brew it again as it was quite popular.

I picked up two Lackey's Flaskey and two Red Neck.

addendum:Lackey's is good. Red Neck is REALLY good.

I believe the Bitterer Wife was Lackey's recipe?? Correct me if I am wrong.......I was quite blitzed when we spoke at Chancey Smith's. In any event, one of my favourite Ontario beers ever!

The Lackey's Flasky was indeed very good, regret I missed a few others.

GL Project X bottlings have the life span of a may fly LOL. I'm glad they found a way to capitalize on the pilot brewing system experiments.

Very few Pompous and Bitter Wife remain today. Fair number Miami. The Islay Barrel Aged Red Leaf Imperial Lager was also very tempting!
