    Cant trust that. Especially on super allocated items.

    Agreed on this. If it's something that is going to be gone within a day or two, it's no use checking their website.

    If you are not lingering in your store, you're already too late. Well at least for the BA.

    That's pretty much how it was for non-BA at LP Binny's as well. I tried after work and nothing. I was able to get Abraxas after work when it came out, but not Darkness.

    DG Binny's had it this morning... I guess people were there hanging out waiting for it. How they knew the time... one has to wonder.

    Knew? Probably more like "were waiting this morning, just like they would be waiting tomorrow morning if it hadn't gotten to DG today."

    Beer nerds.

    Yeah I think the anticipation with Darkness is there plus couple that with BA Pipeworks was released this week too so people are just going every day to their store hoping something is being released. It's akin to when day laborers are at the docks looking for a day's work, folks are showing up at their store looking for the day's limited release:wink:

    Binny's lakeview has both as of 10:45. I assume the B.A. will go fast as there were a few of us lingering around to get it.

    Don't you hang out and linger at liquor stores on your days off?

    You know that empty feeling you get when you wait in line inside/outside a liquor store on a Tuesday morning, finally grab that bottle you've been waiting for hours for (cause BARREL AGED OR VANILLA OR FLAVOR OF THE WEEK ZOMG), then you get into your car and start to reevaluate your life choices?

    Yeah, me neither. Pass me another Fist City, will ya?
