Damn both of those sound delicious...maybe I should regret not getting tickets.
By the way, Jutsu (the final version) has returned to the bottle shop with a now-permanent label. Cat Lady has also made a reappearance.

Fucking finally! 3 Minutes to Midnight is being released at the end of October. I've been eagerly waiting for it since they announced it in an August 2014 blog post.

From their newsletter:
You heard it here first -- 3 Minutes to Midnight will be released this month! This imperial stout barrel aged with cherries has spent a solid 12 months hibernating in barrels, giving the fruit and roasted malts ample time to get to know each other, enjoy their honeymoon phase, get bored of hearing each other's same old stories over and over again, have a blow out fight, decide that they really want to put in the effort to 'make it work', and then rekindle their romance. It's a modern love story that also tastes great -- available in bottles in the last week of October (final date TBA).

Waited way to long for this. Hopefully followed by BOYD in November.

I just need more skeleton key. Drank my last bottle last week and was pretty bummed when it was gone with no hints at a future release. I could use more lambda too!

They posted a photo quite some time ago of the spice mixture used in Skeleton Key with brief announcement of it being brewed on that day for eventual future release. I'll see if I can find a link.

EDIT: Have a look at the official instagram account at a post from 37 weeks ago. It's in the works!

The last SK release was aged for 12 months....so this would probably be a year away if it was brewed a month ago.

I believe they were set to brew when they posted this which was 37 weeks ago. Should be ready in about 4 months give or take. First batch was released at the end of October last year.

My bad, I read that as 37 days. Glad to know the wait is only 4 or so months away.

It doesn't say which Monogamy it is…kind of a flaw in their website. They have an interesting beer on tap this week, Rocky's Farmhouse Ale which is a mixed fermentation ale with 2 brett strains in primary. Pretty good, although nothing I would go wild over.

Tried it last night. It is indeed Columbus. Not the star of the monogamy series, but a respectable entry. Some bitter and vegetal notes. Not a lot of floral. I think I see why this hop is usually part of a team effort.

How I wish there were some way to try the exact same recipe with the different monogamy hops side-by-side. That would be pretty cool.
