Toppling Goliath Brewery appreciation thread...

1) Thanks for the invite golfing.
2) He mentioned in there that he would be doing multiple releases at once if he does it that way, so the drive is more "worth it". I would certainly make the trek if I knew there was KBBS, Assassin, and let's say Sosus or a new IIPA on tap. If it's just one thing and no bottle sales that 3 hour drive seems a lot longer.

 

No you must have misunderstood... Parents are actually sending their kids to college there just to mule for them at TG releases...

 

That's the only reason I'm planning to have kids...

 

MD Tentative release day Oct. 8 per Clark's twitter.

 

BUT WHAT DOES IT MEAN!?! Release on the 8th? Online entry on the 8th!?

 

It means prep your mules. It's shitlording time.

 

I'd put money on a lottery or email system like last year. There is no way that TG gives people this long of a heads up for a first come first serve bottle release. Their flower shop would have people camping out the night before.

 

Agree, but I'd never say never...
They'll do what they want.

 

Or at the very least, if you want a pour of it, go on the 8th?

 

It's time to kick mules and chew bubblegum. And I'm all out of gum.

 

Gophers play Iowa that day in MN. Dang.
No game time set, so hopefully it will be late.
MD in the morning, Gopher win in the evening. Nice little Saturday.
If not. FT: Gopher/ Iowa tickets

 

MD will be a ticket system like last time. Email lottery. Which is nice.

 

Same day as the Great Amherst Beer Festival at Central Waters.

 

I look at it like this: I didn't win the "lottery" (it's not really a "lottery" if it's the first n emails received...a lottery would pick randomly from all emails received) for MD, but I did get a pour of Term Oil. For that reason, I like the on tap only option. Plus nobody can mule up for 10 bottles and make a fortune on the trade/black market if it's tap only.

Bottles increase the amount of beer that is only available to those with deep pockets (i.e. every bottle that is purchased for the sole purpose of turning a profit).

 

Not with that attitude. Where's your entrepreneurial spirit?

 

So whats the best/fastest/cheapest way to get to decorah ? Lacrosse airport ?

 

I must have missed where this info was posted, but where did someone confirm it will be another email "lottery"?

 

Not to be that girl again.... but what is your source for this? Clark hasn't said that, and TG News just indicated that more details would be forthcoming.
