The Half-Acre thread (2018)

Lol it sold out in like 10s. Never change, Chicago beer scene.

 

Is that even possible??

 

Did this just happen? It literally sold out in 2 seconds, I refreshed the page once and it was gone....

 

I think it was more like two seconds. Pretty absurd.

 

They must have only offered one box.

 

Curious how many packages they actually sold... Boom, gone!

 

pneumonia it is!

 

did they have like 2 bundles for sale? I hit it right at 10a and it was already sold out.

 

I got through surprisingly, first good thing to happen to me all week. No freezing my ass off on sunday now.

 

Wow. Never seen it go that fast. Literally got to choose it, went to "add to cart", then it tells me I'm trying to purchase more than is allowed and then shows it sold out.

What a fucking crock.

 

Did they announce that they were including bottles of KBBS and Assassin or something? That was ridiculous.

 

Jesus, that was quick. I'd like to hear if anyone actually got through.

 

Same, added to cart and it was gone.

 

Still gonna refresh for a few more minutes. Hopefully the snow lets up for Sunday morning I guess!

 

Got through quite easily. My internet speed is also slow as a turtle.

 

no way. seriously?

 

I got through; no glitches. But luck for these things should be on my side with all the missed ticket ops I've had. lol

 

Got in the door from work at 956, logged on to brown paper tickets and clicked the link 10 on the dot and moved fast.

 

Probably dumb luck though, I'm sure everyone was sitting with F5 ready haha

 

I can't say I'm surprised.

1. This is a beer release in Chicago, of course it's going to be a boondoggle
2. Only a bit of a premium to not have to stand your ass in line all day Sunday
3. So many variants!!!!

Only head scratcher is that it's for $200 worth of Big Hugs, a decidedly good but not great beer.
