    Depends on the bottle counts but my best guess is the stouts will be gone same day even within a hour like dfpf. Maybe a chance at fruit street because some people deciding to pass on it because they are already spending $75 plus on three bottles or the higher count may save it from selling out but I'm just being speculative.

    The stouts will definitely not last until Sunday, the sours may as Bogart mentioned, and I assume the bottle count will be somewhere around 400 for each of the stouts as they were when they were sold at Wakestock.

    I wonder what time lines will start, I'd like to get some, but if lines start early and bottle counts are low I won't bother making the drive down there.

    Many beer geeks value the .rar whalezbro and tradeability and posting Instagram whalez photos more so than caring about how certain breweries have treated customers and the craft beer community in the past. Breweries can get away with almost anything because many craft beer geeks don't care how they are treated as long as they get their whalez. That's why.

    I just find it funny that someone with no moral imparative has the audacity to create a beer with that namesake.

    Key board muscles, Troll So Hard, Haterade...... he has a knack for throwing up his middle finger at his supporters while naming his beers....

    Though I sympathize with all the OGs who felt they were dealt a bad hand (some of them being personal friends of mine) and can honestly understand all the anger and frustration, I'm not into "boycotting" businesses based on other people's experiences. Sure, I see why some people feel like no one should ever drink one of his beers (ie AB InBev/Goose Island haters) and I'm sure if I had been personally "affected" my feelings would probably be different. The reality is that I'm not going to take some sort of moral stand when it comes to the consumption of beer. Again, if you feel like abstaining from supporting him that's fine. Additionally, being a local and having personal relationships with some of the people that work there who are not making decisions and are not at fault, it would be unfair for me to directly affect their ability to put food on the table

    'Cause he makes good beers? I mean, I can only speak for myself here...but I'm willing to guess that's why most people are supporting him/the brewery
