Check4Change, brahs. Get on my level.

Doesnt that check for changes in text, not the addition of a new webpage?

If you have it monitor the list of "pages, then the change happens and boom hit the store.

I have the chrome extension that is essentially the same thing (Visualping) but its never faster than my f5/fomo combo skills.

With a last name like that you would think he was more into honey based beverages

Anyone dig into a Boon OG Discovery Box recently? Sorry lazy, should probably search as Compton25 has already consumed half a bakers dozen of them.

Probably the most annoying member of the Grand Rapids beer facebook group if you exclude the self-proclaimed homebrewing god Chris Klien.

Yes, although only two of four bottles so far - 92 and 110 I think. Both were delicious.

My local still has the boxes turding up the shelf at $55. Thinking about grabbing a 3rd one.

Finally a release I won't have FOMO on when I miss the website going live! No chance I can pick up so I won't even try.

What a relief. I'm sad to miss the bottles but happy I won't have to stress.

New 50n is delicious!

Prefer Chouke as far as Armagnac lambic goes... That blend is amazing, would love to see how it evolves in a few years

Chouke and a zennepot sandwich is the best lunch in brussels

Same. As much as I want to go, a 3 month window with my schedule just isn't happening for a trip I'd have to take at least a week off for. Enjoy travelers and EU shitlords!

Split a set along with Vat 79 and Vat 109 with some friends during Super Bowl weekend. Good, but would only recommend like 2 of them. Vat 109 is still probably my favorite that I’ve had.

B1 or solera?

I’d recommend tracking down Vat 44 if you haven’t had it before. That and Lambikstoemper are the best two Boons I’ve ever had.

ISO VAT 44. The only one I haven't tried yet or don't have on deck.

Speaking of Boon

This is the Second Edition. Tons of funk on the nose, tastes a touch tart, earthy minerals and funk. One might call it horse blankety if that’s your thing.

Well there goes my productivity at work for the next few days.

So apparently they are allowing proxies? If anyone is getting their bottles shipped to NYC or RVA i'm down to split the shipping.

I'm down to ship to NYC if we can find a proxy (and we get lucky with the sale)

time to go start a few fake craigslist Belgium post and watch the messages roll in!

 

[sherm10161]

The allowing of proxies makes me sad. I plan to be at Cantillon later this summer and would actually be able to pick up my bottles. I was (possibly naively) thinking that it would take a few hours for them to sell all 1500 sets under the premise that only purchaser could pick up their bottles.

 

[waltersrj]

I love how Cantillon is specifically doing this to eliminate mules and is now allowing proxy pickup. It made me chuckle this morning.

I'm going to be there the weekend after Quintessence and was thinking the same thing. Figured we'd have a few hours at least to get in on a purchase. I'm hoping that I have a better time buying these bottles than I did sitting in the queue for Quintessence tickets and striking out...
