    Anytime you can run sales in a way that's a giant "fuck you" to your fans, you gotta do it. This in no way contributes to long term animosity or a general fatigue with craft beer.

    I guess when they stopped doing online sales is when I stopped buying any of their beer. Too much good stuff out there with HPB, Monkish, Smog City, Alesmith and others doing easy online sales.

    This is pretty much exclusively how I roll these days. Too much great one-off or seasonal release beer that is easily attainable and I don't have to waste my time with a will I or won't I get any bottles or even just waste my time in a line.

    I got there about 15 minutes before the started and had no problem (I picked the correct line). PROBABLY going to skip this years' if it's line up only. Just no reason to sit in a line for hours.

    It seems in LA I'm in line all the time, no matter what you do or go somewhere. It's just life.

    I didn't think the line for parabajava was a problem. Just had to get there a bit early. I actually expected the line to be worse. I think too many came late to the party.

    What location are you talking about? I arrived early to Buelton and it still was the biggest clusterfuck ... ONE freaking cashier, etc. I heard Paso was better but that's NOT what I was referring too.
