Barrel aged beers tell us when they are ready, so keep in mind any stated release dates are estimates only.

You must be 21 years or older to be in the Reserve Society. All pick-up purchases take place in Placentia, California, thus CA (Placentia area) sales tax will be applied to all orders at a rate of 7.75%. All shipping orders will be taxed at the shipping address rate.

Please note that we will not be able to ship outside of California. If you are outside of California, please designate a trustee who is over 21 years of age to pick-up or receive shipment of your beers.
Preservation Society

Starting on January 2, 2013, we’ll be accepting memberships into the Preservation Society. This is the perfect membership for those who want to be guaranteed a bottle of our more limited releases, and the convenience of shipment to your doorstep within California. It also makes a great gift for an aspiring beer afficianado.

This membership is billed quarterly and includes 3 of our limited release bottles per quarter, but will not include any of the ‘exclusive’ beers listed above. The cost per quarter varies on the beers included in the membership, but generally it’ll be in the $50-60 range. Members receive a 10% discount on every quarterly release, and have access to purchasing additional bottles of some releases through our website, Provisions and the Tasting Room, however, the 10% discount applies only on the quarterly shipments and does not include additional beer purchased through the website, Tasting Room or Provisions.

Members may join or cancel throughout the year, however there will be a limit to the number of members we can accept. Members will also have priority in joining the 2014 Reserve Society. We’ll be releasing more details as we get closer to the new year.
We hope you continue to enjoy your 2012 membership and that we’ll have you along as we continue to brew and grow in 2013!

Cheers,
Your Friends at The Bruery
