The Four Horsemen

Ok I’m kind of pissed at Ellison Brewery. I’m going to rant a bit so please feel free to stop reading I just need to get my frustrations out.

So if your still reading, they just had the Four Horseman bottle release. Let me tell you, it was a not worth the wait or prices they are charging. At $40/22 oz bottle this syrup like beer is terrible. Also, $40/bottle give me a break! This was such a money grab for a beer that’s not particularly hard to brew. Their gimmick was that it’s aged is multiple high end barrels, but come on it’s not much work to transfer beers between barrels.

On top of that price, they had it on a nitro line when it was not supposed to be. So sampling the beer was not even representative of the bottled beer. That made the first pours even thicker. Once they caught their mistake they were slow to offer fresh pours. So at $6/sample that’s pretty ridiculous that they would not refund or give full pours as a replacement. Most people were scratching their heads at how bad this release was. The whole thing was unorganized, overpriced and not that good. So I did not buy a bottle or take a more pictures...
