    Mexican Coffee Cake was phenomenal! I'm glad I got to try it, as well as get the MC bottles.

    Glad to somebody in SC step it up and not end up on The Daily Show for once. It could have gone either way.

    Just remember, if anyone has that bottle of Apple Brandy BA MC that they really don't want, and wants to hook up an Upstate S.C. guy who had to work instead, let me know!

    Pics of the bottles for us less fortunate peons who were unable to attend such an amazing event? Are there plans to release the coffee variation outside of the brewery at some point? That sounds like an orgasm in a bottle.

    Great work to Westbrook for the release. Tons of fun and great brews. Grabbed an extra wine barrel towards the ends and noone went home disappointed

    I was extremely happy with everybody's attitude. People helping call out numbers, being cordial, etc... For a release of this caliber, and it being the first one, I thought it went especially well.

    I think that's the key, no one went home disappointed. Great job of adjusting the allocations to meet the demand.

    Mexican Coffee Cake was probably the biggest draw. There were a couple other really cool ones too though. Apple Brandy Barrel Aged Sour Lil B, Cardamon MiniGrowler, Chocolate and Sea Salt Minigrowler, Batch 1 Mexican Cake. Then some now retired but not terriblely special things like Brett and No Mices, Weiss Weiss Baby, and Lichtenhainer. Lots of good options, and lines that were certainly reasonable.

    I did ask today if they were going to bottle the MCC and one of the workers said "No". The guy said that they put the coffee right into the MC kegs and just sell it there. My wife and I each enjoyed a glass and it was even better than the original. Now I just need to keep her out of my varients! :wink:

    Glad today went well. Thought it could be bad. Plenty of time for people to score tickets. Allotment didn't run out before we thought it would. Everything was great

    Many Kudos to the WB team for a well run release. A bit of confusion at the beginning maybe as everyone got in line, but overall very well done.

    Many more kudos to everyone who attended, I didn't hear much of any kind of griping or negative comments from anyone, or of any douchbaggery.

    Now on to the Old Time release!!

    Was a final bottle count for each variant discussed? Curious as to how many of each variant there are.

    Any chance some of those will still be on tap on Thursday?
