Description
The Wood Club remains mostly unchanged for 2023 other than an increase to a 15%-discount on additional barrel-aged sour bottles (up from a flat $2). The included club merch for 2023 is a custom insulated water bottle (to keep you hydrated)!
Each membership comes with two 500 mL bottles of eight barrel-aged sour/funky releases at no extra cost. This will include at least two releases exclusive to club members – using fruits and other ingredients too rare or costly for large batches.
We won’t have a set release schedule as the beers will tell us when they are ready, but we’ll allow semi-annual pickups. Plus 15%-off and priority access to pre-purchase limited sour beers and ciders before the general public!
