'16 Bourbon County Lineup

Seriously.

 

Yeah something has to be up. Website wasn't even slow to load and sold out right at release time. Are people using a software to buy these or something?

 

I got 2 tickets. Missed out on Prop day so this is a nice consolation.

 

Well, @TboneRN mentioned that it did the same thing the past two years, so maybe this is just how it goes for this. Seems a bit crazy considering the price to get in, but beer events be crazy I guess.

 

At least you're batting .500. I'm 0-2.

 

Same here. I remember seeing something about pre-sale on the GI Clybourn event - was there something for MBA members?

 

Per fbook sold out officially. I don't know I keep doing this to myself haha

 

Yeah there was.


Oh well Timmy o toole's it is

 

Rough. You get tickets to FOBAB? That's super fun.

 

Likewise. Each year I think this will be the one...haha. It would be nice to attend one just for the sake of having the experience.

 

Sorry...0-3

 

If you're just looking for it on draft, there are certainly no shortage of options.

 

For sure. Timmys is always so chill for their event it's pretty nice. Like bowzer said would just be nice to go to one of these haha

 

I was mostly concerned with having a bottle of Prop locked down. Not too worried about getting a bottle since I'll be lined up a couple different times probably at different stores. Just would've been nice to have one under my belt already.

 

Just saw that The Hop Review posted its review of this year's lineup. They mention vanilla for regular, but says it takes more of a subtle approach than prior years. It also mentions a "tinge" of dark berry. They are generally positive on all the variants - which is what I expect from all reviewers at this point.

 

Absolutely. If you get early access and trash the beer.. prob won't be getting early access ever again.

 

Link? Googled it and only came up with last year's review.

I wasn't excited about this years' releases to begin with, but it seems even more lackluster after reading that review and hearing what other early reviewers have to say. Good luck with hunting everyone who chooses to do so!

 

I've tried about every variant except the original Rare. I still think Coffee is their best beer followed by the original. I love the look of the new bottles, I'd like them better st 12 oz bottles as well.
