LIF time!!

I'm going to have to rely on you dudes as resources though...will need to corroborate the data between two independent (not entered in LIF) reputable sources to determine winner. If I can't get accurate info, LIF is voided.

Open to anyone, but I bet only Pittsburgh TB'ers enter...person who guesses the following question correctly or comes the closest wins a box of NC goodies (no price is right rules...can go over and still be closest) - at least a couple Heist and/or Wooden Robot crowlers, likely some High Branch cans...and some nice local bottles (Fonta Flora, etc). I don't have any packing material at the moment, so might take some time to get it to you....

1. What time does the first ********* show up tomorrow at BG for the final batch of DoubleMex allocations? (winner cannot be said *********, thus influencing the correct answer)

Tiebreaker - what is my favorite NC brewery to visit?

Taking answers until I post my last "beer and vinyl thread" post and pass out on my couch tonight drunk while listening to vinyl - usually around 1 AM.

6:00AM - sierra nevada - i bet the damn line is full by 9AM, people love waiting in line

serious question:

if you put a parking chair out tonight, will that hold your spot?

also:
do parking chairs count towards your contest?
 
Wonder how BG is going to modify their reservation system, since they are trying to avoid people lined up outside.

I'll give this LIF a shot

jagoffbrewer I'm going to be hitting up your new digs shortly. I expect an open seat at the bar. Or you can throw me out as soon as I walk in, either works.

After realizing theres a good chance Ill miss the rehersal dinner I need to go to if I try to go to BG, Im doing the responsible thing and eating some killer wings and gettin buzzed up at Insurrection beforehand. I'm happy to be shifting to the get off my lawn old man club with some others here. Theres too much other good beer in Pittsburgh, including the other BG beer, for that noise.

Since I definitively know the answer to the tie breaker question, I'm going to decline to participate. Awesome gesture though, El Dooderino.

this is great, i just heard that voodoo got served a cease and desist for the new H2P cans and have to peel the labels off of them now. trade value of H2P cans with labels is going to skyrocket in 3.. 2... 1....

If make it and don't choke on this garbage beer say what's up. I am in the brewhouse and I'll be around.

Edit number two: ISO H2P cans with pitt label

I liken the 50th person on the last day of sign ups to Mr. Irrelevant of the NFL Draft.

I'm also not sure what I'm going to do tomorrow. No restaurants, no places to have a bathroom break, nowhere close to really kill time. I might just wear an adult diaper and pass out in my lawn chair for a few hours.

Just go Sunday at opening and have it on draft.

I'm a Penn State grad so it shouldn't bother me but I think that's a really ****** move if true, especially to an alum. Those labels were sweet! Wonder if they can finish selling this batch of cans and just not do it going forward ... since it's a perishable item?
 
If anyone in here is planning on being there tomorrow prior to open, PM me. Even if you are entered in this LIF.

I will ask a few of you to go up and ask the first mule in line what time he/she/it got there. When everyone reports back, we have our winner. If the responses don't align (within reason), null and void. There is a chance for human error - the mule gives different answers...but hopefully they are close enough to each other and allows me to determine a winner.

Volunteers won't know who other volunteers are so you can't conspire to provide the same answer...not that I think anyone here would do that. And honestly if you do, I will put a hex on your ass to have beer karma explode your DoubleMex bottles.

Poke holes in this **** Nate. It's the best I got. This was really just a bad joke about early lines gone too far.

I just really want this to work, but I'm conditioned toward double-blind inter-rater reliability.
