Understandably. It's really hard to adequately express how bad 2011 was, picking up beer out of the back of a semi after hours and hours of drinking, in snowy weather... Just a bad situation. It's better in the morning.

Also good, this reminded me to make a reservation a the Best Western. Hopefully this year they don't boot me out to the further hotel!
I just made a reservation as well. Damn mountain towns with their $200 a night best westerns haha. Oh well, I am sure this party will be amazing and worth it for sure.
 
As usual, I didn't get a ticket.

But I would like to keep my streak intact (I believe I'm the only one to go to every party?) so if anyone wants to shop a ticket my way, that would be cool. Same goes if anyone wants to go skiing on Friday too.

I don't remember the day after being the only pickup window. Could have sworn I've picked up weeks later for people? Its always been a shitshow pick up wise, I prefer just to get up on the slopes instead of deal with that chaos.

Ah the good ol' days of getting 2 pints of beer BEFORE you have all you can drink barrel aged imperial stouts. . .

You just had to get the condom wrapper in there, didn't you? My buddy is still 50/50 on the second ticket so if he doesn't end up taking it, it's yours.

**** man, I didn't even notice. I haven't worn a condom since . . . January?

Backstory: So I vacation a decent amount. Was going somewhere wo the gf (because who brings sand to the beach amirite?). She was like, why is there a condom in your suitcase? I was like, for putting on my dick?

Anyways, a punch in the arm later, I guess that was the wrong answer. I suppose that condom has been sitting on the desk since she removed it, and it just managed to get into the pic.

The SJ Sharks tie & Marquette mousepad are way cooler anyways.

I seen you at Bruery's anniversary and wanted to approach you about and try and **** with you all Terminator Sarah Connor style and say I was sent by Bottle Logic or whatnot, but I think my date was like, "let's not get you killed today" so I had to puss out as usual.

Anyways, what I'm saying is don't kill me too hard when I want to wrestle you in the snow at midnight after the party is over. Its kind of my thing. All in good fun.
 
Just heard from a friend that in the past you have to pick up your bottles from this the following day. Can anyone confirm/deny this? Strange that it said nothing about that on the event details page if it is infact true. Was talking with friends about renting a bus to drive us to/from the event but if that's the case we will have to stay up there.

The Friday after the event is the first day to pick up any futures bottles you may have pre-ordered but isn't mandatory that day. Pretty sure you have at least a few months to pick up those bottles or have them shipped. Any bottles purchased during the event itself need to be picked up the following day however as well as the party bottle that is included with the ticket.

What was that anyways? I think I recalled something like cognac BART maybe? Like jeez guys, how hard would it be to do a double barrel Eclipse for the party bottle? Amateurs. . .

Last year I was a mega wasted even by party standards, got kidnapped by a ******** boomerang even, which ain't usually my style, was prolly just bummed about making zero progress w/ that one betty (Myra, why is everyone named Myra hot and give me no play?) for the second year in a row :(. Skiing was so ******' brutal the next day. I didn't throw up used motor oil in the snow like that one year at least.

Anyways, hope to meet ya this year, and thank you again for last year!

This is my favorite BaRF post.
 
Just booked my flight, and unfortunately for you my buddy confirmed he wants his ticket. beerandraiderfan so you better get your ass out there Saturday so we can have our 12/7 10:15PM royal rumble.

I can't make it Sat morning. Gonna have to cross the fingers & hope someone can't make it or whatnot in the next few months.

10:15? They shut that **** down at midnight usually don't they? 12:15 am more like it!

Holy **** that is an awesome idea, Royal Rumble style, every :30 a new entrant comes in, last man to thrown out the sumo circle wins!

I'm Rey Mysterio. You're the Big Ho. Or King Kong Drunky.

So much yes.
 
Sort of off-topic but this seems like the best thread to ask in - are any of the breweries in South Lake Tahoe worth checking out? Going to be in Tahoma visiting family in a couple weeks and trying to figure out if there's anything down there worthwhile or if heading up to Truckee for Tahoe Mountain and FiftyFifty is the best use of time for beer.

IMO the breweries in south lake suck. Although, its been a few years since I have been so that may have changed.
 
Looking forward to the party in a few weeks! On that note, anyone need to get rid of a ticket? I have a friend looking if so. Cheers!
 
Hey dudes, I have an extra ticket for this, but it comes with fun strings! I need a ride up from the bay area, my wife and I only have one car and she can't drop my kid at daycare without it, so I can't drive solo. If you can give me a ride the ticket is yours. PM me if you're interested.

Ah damn, need an extra ticket but will be heading up with my buddy from Sacramento.
 
I believe I have one, possibly two tickets available. Need to confirm with buddy that he did not find someone else to take them. chemman14? beerandraiderfan?

I hate this last minute ****. No one has time to be in truckee on a thursday with a weeks notice...

Yes please. 1 or 2 tickets will work.

Nevermind, found a friend to go. What time are people going to start the line bottleshare?
 
Being outside is going to be a lot better without the snow and wetness. Let's hope the weather holds up as clear!

You're killing me Abe.

1) I haven't went skiing yet this season
2) I ain't letting chemman14 (is this a Michael Jackson reference?) Braun Strowman rag doll me unless its in the snow.

Alright, now that I'm in. . .

This party bottle better be Eclipse and not some ******** Cognac barrel licorice and butthole beer like last year.

****, after that abomination, the party bottle should be Cocaine Eclipse.

Would be dope if the new party bottle were a masterpiece.
