Buying For A Beer Lover? Strange Fellows Brewing Offers Up “Fellowship” Gifts

The GOODS from Strange Fellows Brewing

Vancouver, BC | A Fellowship would make the perfect gift for the beer connoisseur in your life (and if that happens to be you, there’s nothing wrong in getting yourself a gift, too). Available to purchase online now.

What is the Fellowship? The Fellowship is a friendly, albeit strange association of people who share a passion for craft beer. By joining the Fellowship, craft beer connoisseurs will receive a guaranteed number of bottles of beer from 4 exclusive limited beer releases throughout the year. Fellows will also have the first opportunity to purchase additional bottles of special release beers before they go on sale to the public. Expect preferential opportunities and treatment along the way.

Who can join? The Fellowship is available to a limited number of individuals of 19+ years of age. For our inaugural Fellowship the maximum number of members at 125.

What beers can I expect? The beers will be made and bottled exclusively for the limited releases, and will not be available on tap. These are all Cuvée or vintage releases. Most will be barrel-aged, some sours, some blends. Most are well into their adolescence now and several are reaching maturity.

How long does the Fellowship last? While we anticipate the initial Fellowship lasting until Early in 2017, we cannot say for certain as it depends upon when exactly the beers are ready to be bottled. When the 4 beers promised for the Fellowship are distributed, the inaugural Fellowship will end, as will the rights and privileges associated with that, including your 15% discount, access to Fellowship beer and early access to other beer.

How can I sign up for the Fellowship? Please visit our website to secure your spot in the Fellowship. Your Fellowship will only be confirmed once we receive payment in full. Fellowships available now until January 2016.

Does the $350 Fellowship get preferential treatment over the $150 Fellowship? Both Fellowships receive the same treatment, and one group never gets preference for releases, different beer, or any other special rights and privileges over the other group. The $350 Fellowship simply gets more value (ceramic growler, double the bottles of beer and a $100 gift card) compared to the $150 Fellowship.

All members of the Fellowship receive

Exclusive Fellowship beer: Our brew master Iain Hill has already been creating beer exclusively for the Fellowship, and will continue to do this. Beer for the Fellowship may come from barrels, blends, beers from our cellar, etc. In other words, you will be able to acquire rare offerings that will not be sold to the general public. We anticipate there being a minimum of 4 unique beers produced for the Fellowship, split evenly among the 125 members. For example, if we have 375 litres of a barrel aged sour with cherries, each member will be allocated a minimum of 4 – 750ml bottles of beer to purchase.

Purchasing Additional Fellowship beer: If at the end of an allocation for a particular beer, there is still beer remaining, each member will be able to purchase additional bottles of beer. For example, if we allocate 4 – 750ml bottles to each member, but there are 100 bottles that were not claimed, those members of the Fellowship who would like the extra bottles of beer will have the first option to purchase some of this unclaimed beer.

Preferential treatment: You will get a preferential opportunity to purchase seasonal beers (to some allocation limit) that may be tricky to otherwise obtain, attend special events at the brewery and buy limited edition merchandise. For example, we are releasing our Bourbon Barrel Aged (12 months) Imperial Stout to the general public sometime at the end of 2015/early 2016, and we will give members of the Fellowship the first chance to buy an allocation of this beer.

First for information: Be the first to know what is happening at the brewery, special events, beer tastings and more. We will give you priority access to the information we release.

Priority Registration for Subsequent Years: We anticipate releasing the second edition of the Fellowship sometime in 2017, and those who were members of the inaugural Fellowship will be given the first chance to sign-up again.

Growth of the Fellowship: As our barrel program for the Fellowship grows, we anticipate having additional beer to share with the group in subsequent editions, several of which we are excited to start working on in the near future. In other words, there will be more than 4 special beers available to subsequent editions of the Fellowship.
