There's their release schedule for the holidays. Not sure if the Wednesday Swish release will last into the weekend, but you'll likely have to get up there soon to get it as people go ape over it. You could always trade some Dinner for Swish!

Good luck!

 

Always a chance but I'd get up there as early as possible on Friday to have a shot.

 

I would say it is also extremely unlikely that Swish will still be around for the weekend. You can certainly hope but the Swish I have had has been excellent this year and everyone seems to want to get their hands on it.

 

As far as I know, no accounts have received any Swish since they started releasing this season as the brewery has had no issues selling out within hours. Judging by the lines with the last couple of releases, I'd say you're SOL. I'm not sure what the brew schedule is like for it, but I'd check next door and see if you can grab some Epiphany if you can't get the Swish.

 

Like everyone has said, it's possible but I wouldn't expect it to be there. Luckily all of their beers are excellent and you'll be happy with whatever you're able to pick up.

 

If you're at Bissell when they open you'll be fine, be sure to bring cash as well - it'll save you lots of time. Swish gets no distro to retail accounts although it's occasionally on draught at the typical Portland spots.

 

What time of day is least crowded on Thursdays? Is there a lull time after open? Hoping to go up next week for Swish (it's a fair assumption that it'll last until Thursday pm?)

 

I agree that Swish would likely not make it from a Wed release to Fri at open, and you would not find cans in stores. Plenty of other great beers will be around, tho!

 

Keep an eye on their social media accounts to see if it lasts through Wednesday. You'd probably want to get there by open if they still have it, unless they have an unusually high amount left. It would be less busy an hour or two after open, tho.

 

Foundation is releasing Epiphany and Afterglow (IPA) on Thursday, 12/17, at 3. They will likely be available Friday, or at least available for growler fills. Cans will see distribution, too. Check out Bier Cellar.

 

Same situation for the last Dinner release. I was 472 in line for Dinner and maybe 30th at Bissell Brothers. If you haul ass over there (don't stop for breakfast, etc) you should be fine

 

@Jewrican23 you stole my profile pic, bruh. I'll lease it to you for some Dinner tho.

 

Swish has been lasting longer since they stopped selling cases. Only three 4 packs. Slim chance some lasts until Thursday AM. Certainly won't last until Friday.
