Someone estimated 300 people before 11. Half Acre cut the allocation to four and still on the verge of selling out soon.

WHAT
THE
****

I seriously think CCBE is a driving force behind all the new money terds mucking up the scene. Gone are the days you stumble upon something awesome on tap at a bar and text your good drinking buddies or walking into Goose and seeing vintage bottles for consumption because one of those ***** will have it posted on Facebook and the masses will have it cleared out before most of us can blink twice.

No surprise, really.

I bet Eclipse variants sell out this year too.

That could actually be a good measuring stick.

Half Acre at the moment. Word is allocation down to two.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[gtx281]

Half Acre at the moment...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Irony here is that just a tapping of Big Hugs would have 99% less people.

New Money only cares about bottles.

Went in to Vav's today. They only had 2 variations of 2014 Eclipse. Shelf full. Exhale.

(For now)

I kind of feel bad for the people at the front who have been waiting forever...except I don't!

A screen grab of this post made it onto CCBE. I'm famous!

OMG.

Treebs. We must hype the **** outta eclipse.

I heard a few cases of the futures may trickle into Chicago this year as well.

I was specifically looking for the Rum barrel today.

If my civic duty calls I will oblige.

Are there any limited releases that are super awful? I'd love to see CCBE go bananas for something like that.

They already did.

Very glad I didn't swing by today.

Please don't tell these people that Peche Mortel exists.

Hell no! They can buy crap and like it!

Still people in line. I like the people saying they were happy they got in line early because they got a 5 oz. pour of Abraxas(!!!!).

Coffee Eugene > Big Hugs

Why you'd wait in line more than 15min for a very mediocre at best beer is beyond me.

I think Founders Breakfast Stout tastes notably better than Big Hugs the last few years, and that **** it on shelves at the gas station near me. Makes no sense to me.

 

[daniel1]

I hope you feel good about yourself Dunt.

No one can claim to have waited in line and demand walez for FBS.

I'll explain it to you: beer is stupid.

The newest in the Voodoo series has all the makings of a hyped beer besides the taste. Fancy bottle, check; Collab with some hip bakery, check; Crazy ingredients, check; Started off as a brewery only release until we didn't hype it enough, check, check, check...

If we can get the CCBE to buy this by the case, we've done our job.

PS: In case you were wondering why I picked this series, well, you mentioned bananas:

That poor guy. How dare someone correct him on the difference between cask-conditioning and barrel-aging.

I wonder if he drank it out of his fedora.
