Shhh...Keep This On The Down Low...


Rumors have been swirling for a few days now about a second wave of Abyss arriving in Portland this week, and I can confirm that there are a couple hundred more cases dropping tomorrow and Friday. As far as I know, every place that received some of the first wave should get another small allotment, and a few places that got screwed the first time will be getting a some as well.




We won't be getting anywhere near the amount we received on the first batch, so in order to spread the joy a bit we're going to limit people to 3 bottles per person (per day) for at least the first week.






As if that wasn't enough to motivate you to stop in on Friday, we should also be receiving Full Sail Bourbon-aged Top Sail, Stone Old Guardian Barleywine, and maybe (it's a slim chance) some Oregon Trail Bourbon Porter. Even if the Oregon Trail Porter doesn't show up that still leaves you with 3 world class beers arriving on the same day!

Throw in a few other things we've got in stock like Great Divide Oak-Aged Yeti, Orkney Dark Island Reserve, Beer Valley Black Flag Stout, or Rogue Russian Imperial Stout, and you've got the makings of one heck of a beer tasting. Just a thought...

Just be sure to take it easy on Friday night. Trying to drink all three (maybe 4) of these 10%+ monsters in one sitting is a recipe for disaster, or at least a nasty hangover.

What time do you guys open? I might actually have to drive my car to pick this up, as I don't dare trust bringing it with me on the MAX or a bus ... someone may steal my Abyss!

We open at 10 am, but there's no telling when the delivery will arrive, so I've been advising people to stop by anytime after noon.

See you then!

Did they arrive?

g has arrived yet, but I've gotten confirmation that the Top Sail, Abyss, and Guardian are all confirmed for delivery tomorrow. I haven't heard back from the folks at Oregon Trail yet, so I'm going to assume that their Bourbon Porter isn't ready yet. Oh well, 3 out of 4 ain't bad...
