Cycle BA day

Very well handled. And it was nice that they communicated the limit (and how the limit could change) well ahead of time. Bottles last nearly two hours after the release too. Really great that everyone in line and people that were able to get there within two hours of the release were able to get bottles. They've obviously increased production compared to last year when the limits were 1 per person (except for Monday which was 2) and most days they sold out within an hour of the release

 

Tuesday is sold out - as of 10:00am - post on IG

 

Anyone confirm the barrel Tuesday was in? Bourbon?

 

Second-hand info: Guy I know said that Doug told him Bourbon

 

But WILL it be bourbon?

 

Here's the official description for Cycle...no mention of barrel type:

Tuesday: A rich, many grain (barley, wheat, rye) imperial stout we affectionately referred to as Garbage Stout. Sure, we cleaned up some of our grain supply but we also made one of our best imperial stouts. (we wrote it down, we will make this again)

 

Need a little help please to confirm my understanding...There is no release Friday morning and all Friday bottles will only be sold at the BA event? TIA

 

Friday bottles (1 pp) are included in the ticket price for the event. They've made no mention of selling additional bottles at the Cycle BA Day event.

They have said no bottle sales at the brewery on Friday.

 

Hearing that all BA Day Attendees are going to be able to buy one F Bottle at the Festival in addition to the one that is included in the ticket price..hopefully that will be the case

 

Can someone post a review of Monday?

 

My initial reaction to the full pour I had yesterday was that it reminded me of Pallet 1 but was a hint sweeter. Lots of Cinnamon and the coffee showed up more as it warmed. Overall it was an excellent BA stout and I would have happily paid the $10 for another full pour had I not had to leave to head back across the bridge to CCB.

 

Correct. No sales, and no bottles for public sale. Only bottles for the ticket holders.

 

I'm down for that!

 

I'm trying to figure out if there's ANY way to get a ticket to Friday's event...

Everything I've read says no, everyone's name had to be given when tickets were purchased. I just have to ask.

 

The answer is no

 

Nope. Unfortunately I feel like this event was even more scarce than huna. Sans the terrible online deal that made it last longer

 

Money talks. Just sayin.

 

what is the over under on time people start lining up thursday, when most people are already in town? would be really awesome if we got a chance to purchase an additional bottle of Friday, but just happy to try all the beers and get a bottle without all the hassle. i guess in reality i'll get 2 anways, since my brother is tagging along .

 

Well the line is already really really long at 5:20 this morning. So who knows? Folks had to be there at 5:00. However, even with the low bottle counts people who showed up at 8:00 yesterday got bottles, and Thursday is supposed to be as big as a batch almost as Monday. Full disclosure I am NOT out there this morning someone just sent me a picture.

 

Yesterday I was at the corner at 6am, today at 6am the line is wrapped around to the next corner.
