    Then the audacity to put a limit on it. Reverse consumer psychology methinks?

    No distro to NC, this is ET distributing. WB covers AL, NC, SC and GA

    I appreciate how blatantly clear Westbrook's profit grab is here. Makes it easier for me not to buy these bottles.

    Anyone know if there were any left at the taproom by the end of the night for open tomorrow?

    At 50 bucks a bottle, I would imagine so

    Hopefully that’s enough Apple Brandy to allow for a release and not in house consumption, guessing 1pp.

    I wonder if the Pappy bottles are actually Mexican Cake Reserva, the wax color looks similar.

    Pappy labels appear to say bottled in 2015, so not sure if that is something for this year. Of course, maybe I just can't read it that well.

    Looks like a picture from their cellar, Pappy on the left and Reserva on the right.

    My thought was they are saying "hey, remember that we do BA cakes?....yeah...pay attention!"

    35 cases @12 bottles per case equals 420. That sounds about right when it comes down to the number of golden tickets. I'm pretty sure port is one of the variants this year as well.

    I must be the only one without a decoder ring.

    Can someone decipher what the hell the last 2 posts are saying?

    The MC variants and what the bottle allocation would be per ticket.

    Have they ever released multiple variants in a release like that? I thought they normally just did 1 type and it was just like 1 bottle per person?

    Yes they usually do a SET of variants each year.
