Pretty sure those 170€ open day boxes are still available.

Jeez, I wouldn't mind getting one of those. Too bad 3F won't sell any online.

I'm not qualified to offer business advice of any kind, but the fact that they outsource shipping to Etre/BIAB, I'd imagine that a simple web shop would be a real money maker...

But ya, I'd drop $200 on that OBD box in a heartbeat.

Thank you! Do you recall the contents?

So one more question, do both 3F and Cantillon have an Etre/BiAB guy on premesis to drop off bottles for shipping at all times or is it only during OBD or the like?

Also if only one has the service available year round, do they allow shipment of non-them bottles?

Fonteinen seems to always have it now, if you want to add other bottles to your Fonteinen box the majority of them have to be Fonteinen. i believe they allow you to add a few others.

If you happen to be at 3F and want to send one of those open day boxes my way via BIAB for c+s I’ll send you my info .

Cantillon does not. You have to take your bottles to Brussels beer project and they will hand your bottles off to BiaB.

Has anybody had this yet? Seen it at one Chicagoland spot so far. Looks good, but $14 for a 375ml is a tricky pricepoint if Mariage Parfait 375s are on the shelf too.

I think you're in the wrong thread?

What about at 3f?

Marek, I bet Jonathon at Etre would do it ad hoc if needed. Very accommodating dude

It’s good.

Obligatory

 

[NClambicguy]

They do have a spot to drop off beers for BiaB or etre. 75% of bottles need to be 3F but the rest can be anything

Also, and apologies if this sounds naive, but what’s the process for that like?

Sorry. First time poster. Hoping to get a crack at the Cantillon box too, and I’ll beet it on topic going forward.

There's no guy. You buy the beers, 3F puts them in a box and stacks them on a pallet, and every now and again that pallet goes to Etre/BiaB to be processed. I think they do this year-round.

Just accidently refreshed on my phone! Doh! Back of the line.

Got through only to get an error.. But seems like they fixed it, got a box

When I got through they had 837 items remaining in stock, and I started at 122

So I would guess they had 1000?

 

[JMir]

Got it. Strange time this one.

Looks like it, I also got a box!

 

[rfraga7]

They must have a ton. Started at 450, got kicked out at 100, started again at 657 and got a box.

 

[MikeG1]

Thank god my kids don't ******* sleep. They got me up at 5:15am today (which is late for them, actually) and snagged a set.

 

[Kraftster]

Anyone get the payment error after getting through the queue? I’m back in the queue and can only hope I’m in a payment queue since there were 215 remaining when I got through and started at 825 in queue after getting the error.
