Bottle Friends: Year 9
NEW FOR YEAR 9: FLEXIBLE MEMBERSHIP OPTIONS
Bottle Friends is our subscription to the darker side of beers. Big. Bold. Barrel Aged. Blended to perfection.
This version of the subscription is for SHIPPING ONLY (within CA/we can only ship to CA addresses. Packages require an adult signature). One box per quarter.
There is an additional subscription for people who want to subscribe to the PICKUP version of the club.
Bottle Friends is now available as either a quarterly or yearly subscription. Join for a single quarter (for either pickup or shipping), or lock in the full year and ride along for the entire cycle, with additional discounts for yearly members (and a small bonus gift).
FIRST CYCLE (APR – JUN)
Each quarter includes two different releases:
- One Bottle Friends’ members only exclusive release.
- One other new barrel aged release.
If you sign up now, your first quarter will be the Vanilla-focused Spring Cycle. Which is currently penciled in to be: [subject to change]
For 3 Bottles / Quarter Subscriber
- 1x Luxury: BA Imperial Stout w/ Vanilla
- 2x (Not-Yet-Named): BA Imperial Stout w/ Vanilla & Mizunara Wood
For 4 Bottles / Quarter Subscribers:
- 2x Luxury: BA Imperial Stout w/ Vanilla
- 2x (Not-Yet-Named): BA Imperial Stout w/ Vanilla & Mizunara Wood
In each cycle, at least one of the two releases (and sometimes both) will feature the seasonal focus (Vanilla, Coconut, or Coffee), and may include more than one of the focus ingredients.
Members also receive first access to purchase any additional bottles that may be available during the quarter, including extra barrel-aged releases or canned stouts.
Some quarters may also include SWAPS, allowing members to exchange the included public release for an archive or non-included release.
