I think I totes ****** up....

Bought the Damon/Madness&Civilization package. I figured it was possible to have a friend go and get it for me, but its not looking like they allow that. Does anyone know if this is possible?

I will just say that they did not check my ID when I picked mine up, they only asked for the information on the receipt they emailed me. Good luck.

I forgot to bring the printout of the receipt when I went to get mine but they recognized me anyways and said that was okay. Of course, going up somewhat frequently and being of a different ethnicity that stands out probably helped

Got CD8 on Friday, and it appears they still have some left (haven't marked it as sold out yet even though the page has been updated)

 

[Corbot_3000]

Daybreak this week possibly? I wonder if they'll wait until CD8 is gone before they put it on the shelves.

Wednesday. Along with more Arthur.

We are bringing up 2 carloads for the market. We are not going to HF after though as we need to get back for the gang bang

Where can I read about this gang bang?

Is the concept of a gang bang that you have teams of people ship to other teams and then have simultaneous tastings once everyone has their boxes?

Not simultaneous, no. It's a big BIF, except instead of one person sending to one person, you have teams, and then you drink all the beer at the end.

There's teams in cities that sign up and they get matched. You have a big tasting while packing up beer to send to them, then you have another big tasting when you've received. The actual bangs and packing parties have certain windows they fall in, and often there's a couple at the same time, but it would be too difficult to have everyone do them on the same day.

Per bottle release list, no Arthur Wednesday - pushed back a week. Case limit though, which is pretty sweet?

Very, very sweet.

 

[facesnorth1]

Actually, it's horrible. Was thinking of going up Wednesday morning and this bit depresses me.

Not unless you grab me 12 and/or CD8 is still around all week

 

[MKtheGeneral]

Any word / idea if CD8 will make it to Friday?

 

[Ataraxia1]

Now the site says Arthur is on the shelf, still case limit.

Where is your God now?

Very unlikely from what I've heard

 

[ASUBeer]

Case of Arthur. Mmmmmmm. I love how crisp, tart the batches have been fresh the past 1-1.5 years. I could live off of Arthur, water and coffee.

 

[MKtheGeneral]

Dang. At least Daybreak and Arthur will soothe the grief.

 

[OnryAndMean]

I wish I would've known Arthur was coming out this week before I went up last week. As much as I'm glad to have CD8, I'd take a case of Arthur over one CD8 any day.

Now that's sweet!

2 cases of Arthur is pure dreamy bliss - gotta enjoy the ability to grab that much while you can! Just be sure not to tell your girlfriend that she can get the same cheese in the Kirkland brand at Costco or you'll lose your excuse to head to VT

Jasper Hill = Kirkland ???

Only some of them, no? To my knowledge, one cannot get Winnimere or Harbison at Costco...

 

[vonnegut21]

Winnimere.... ....at Costco...

HNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Winnimere. Wish I could get it at Costco prices. It's like $40 a wheel here. Paid $15 for one at the HF 3rd anniversary party.

 

[Frank1]

I think it's MOSTLY the clothbound cheddar, but not 100% on that at all.

If someone is getting Bailey Hazen at Costco on the cheap I'm clearly doing it wrong. A costco membership used only for cheese would pay for itself in about a month in this house

 

[Osyrus]

If I'm paying those prices for those cheeses to a company that speaks to a need to preserve the soils of the farmstead, I'd prefer that they at least treat both their employees and cows a bit better. But that's just me.
