Member Beers
Members will receive a total of 12 bottles (375mL) of beer over the course of the year. One of the beers will be a Members Only BA Brownie Batter. The members will be the only people with access to this beer. All bottles will be a stout, barleywine, or barrel-aged imperial beer. The timing of each bottle release is unknown, but they will be released as they become ready, which is at the discretion of our production team. Each member beer is expected to yield additional bottles that members will have the opportunity to purchase. We will also keg some of each member beer which will be available on draft to the public. Bottles not purchased by members in a timely fashion may be sold to the public. We reserve the right to save any additional bottles for special events or other use at our discretion.
Limited Barrel-Aged Beers
We anticipate offering several releases of barrel-aged beers during the membership year. Members will have the ability to order a portion of these limited beers online in advance of the public. The remaining bottles will be sold in the taproom and available to the public.
Online Ordering
Members will receive access to an online account on CraftCellr.com which allows advance purchases of beers for pick-up in the taproom. Orders must be placed a minimum of 48 hours before the requested pick-up. CraftCellr will allow you to pick a proxy but please send in the contact information of your proxy to thomas@pontoonbreiwng.com so that we have it on file.
Discount
Members will enjoy a 10% discount at Pontoon Brewing, on-site, draft beer, to-go beers (excludes barrel-aged bottles), and Pontoon merchandise (t-shirts, glassware, stickers, etc.) purchased in either tasting room with valid membership card or online with a discount code. Membership renewal fees and ticketed events are excluded from the discount.
Glassware
Members will receive a pair of exclusive PRC glasses. The style will be voted on in the Facebook group to mix things up! Glassware will be available for pick-up at the tasting room.
Membership Card
Members will receive a membership card to include their name and membership number. Member numbers cannot be requested or changed. A member’s number will stay the same from year to year and retired if the member chooses not to renew. Membership card must be presented at the time of beer pick-up or to receive applicable discounts. Lost cards will not be replaced.
Facebook Private Group
Members will have the opportunity to be added to a private Facebook group. Only the paying member will be allowed access to the group. Anyone additional that is a named proxy, splitting a membership, etc. will not be allowed access to the group.
Proxy
Members unable to pick-up their beer in the tasting room may assign a proxy. The trustee must be named via CraftCellr and emailed to thomas@pontoonbrewing.com when requesting a pick-up. Membership perks are not extended to any proxy.
2021-2022 Membership
Members will have priority enrollment in the 2021-2022 society before the general public.
Order Shipping and Pick-up
We are unable to ship beer. For bottle releases, we will make an announcement prior to the release, and CraftCellr will give the notification that the beer/glassware is ready. All items must be picked up within 1 month of the release or it will be forfeited. An online order is not required for membership allotment beers. All pick-ups will take place at the tasting room located at 8601 Dunwoody Place, Building 500, Suite 500, Sandy Springs, GA 30350.
First Release & Member Reception
The first release is anticipated to be available for pick-up starting on Saturday, September 5th, 2020 for the Member Only Brownie Bash bottle. We will host a 2020-2021 member reception to celebrate the launch of our membership program and will subsequently have one every year for renewals. We hope to offer the reception on September 5th, 2020 at our taproom. However, with COVID-19 complications, we may change the date to accommodate the entire membership group. Updates will be on the Facebook page.
