What is the Reserve Society
At The Bruery we like to think of ourselves as taste-obsessed. Whether we're out grabbing cocktails, sharing dinner with friends, or indulging on a decadent dessert.
We're always inspired.
The Reserve Society is a very special beer community. It's our beer membership where we share our most adventurous and exclusive projects. This annual membership costs $300 + Tax and includes 12 large format members-only beers, plus access to purchase other member-exclusive projects, invitations to events, special tasting room privileges and more. The Reserve Society starts with the beers, but it's so much more. Keep reading for the full list of benefits and beers.

Here's What Members Are Saying
The actual tasting room is pretty busy and it can be hard finding seats for a large group. It's much better than their original setup which was a couple wooden barrels set up inside the actual brewery. We love their beers so much that we both joined their Reserve Society and regularly stock up our cupboards with special brews that only Reserve Society members can get. The regular brews are good but I highly recommend Black Tuesday, Melange #3, and Chocolate Rain. They are all blended and aged in oak barrels. I recommend bringing a DD as a couple glasses of those will put you in a good place.

Love this place! Their bourbon barrel stouts are excellent. If you like a strong stout + 10% this is the place. There are a few greAt local breweries and this is one of them. If you haven't been, then give them a try. You may just want to join the reserve society

Made the pilgrimage a few weeks back from San Jose to pick up my reserve society allocations...all I can say is the Bruery taproom is the bomb. The amount of taproom only specialty drafts was staggering, whether you had a society membership or not. Prices were really fair on all pours, the space was nice and we ended up spending an entire evening there. The staff was great as well.

My bf is a Reserve Society member and so we come to let him drink all of the other fantastic beers. Great atmosphere and lots of fun. Worth checking out even if you're not in love with BBA/sours/Belgians!

Rueuze (2021) - 375-ml. (x2)
This year's version is sure to knock your socks off. Our take on the traditional Belgian-style blends of aged lambics.

Bottle Access Level: Hoarders, Reserve
February
Seahorse (x2)

Annuel (2021)
Another year of brewing wildly unique farmhouse-style ales calls for a craftful crown on an anniversary celebration. Like all Annuel projects, this quinary ale's inspiration comes from The Bruery's Anniversary old ale and the solera aging technique. A strong Anniversary ale base induces an artful blend with our sour quad, imperial sour blonde, and solera Anniversary ale, all aged in oak and bourbon barrels for an elated finish. 750-ml.

S'more BBLs (2021)
This massive, viscous beer is a carefully crafted blend of Tart of Darkness and Black Tuesday, with marshmallow, graham crackers, cacao nibs, and vanilla.

Let us lay out the FAQs
How long will you cellar my beers?
Preservation Society Members - You can cellar your beers throughout the entire quarter of your membership.
Hoarders & Reserve Society members - You can cellar your beers until February of the following year. For example, if you're a member in 2020, we will store your beers until February of 2021.
KEGS AND CROWLERS DO NOT QUALIFY FOR CELLARING
Can I change my membership mid-year?
Simply put, no. We'd love to accommodate however due to the limited nature of these beers we are unable to change your preference type for included bottles in the middle of the year. That being said, most beers are available to purchase even if they're not included in your membership.
What are guest access cards?
Can a friend pickup my beer for me?
In short, absolutely! All you need to do is include their name in the email you send to society@thebruery.com or dc@thebruery.com, otherwise you can list them in the order notes field while placing an order on the online store.
Are event tickets included with my membership?
How do I get my beer?
There are so many ways to get your beer. You can either checkout with one of the following options, or choose product from your cellar to have fulfilled in the same way.
