    Timmys confirmed they will have variants. Not sure if all of them though

    Ridgeview sold the beer on Tuesday. Posted this on the web site.

    Goose Island Bourbon County Stout

    Available Tuesday Morning


    Have it time for Thanksgiving!

    Ridgeview Liquor is getting out of the Goose Island business due to what we consider the constant lack of respect shown to the Green Bay area craft beer community.

    We received our shipment of Bourbon County Stout and are moving it out at the start of the business day Tuesday 9am.

    (That means no Black Friday event this year, which allows me to finally take a Black Friday off...but that didn't factor into this decision...really).

    Come and get 'em! Limit 6btls per customer.


    Cheers!

    Wow. Will be interested to see what the Madison and Milwaukee areas got. Does seem like it's less and less each year.

    Highlights/Lowlights:

    2015 - convinced wife to camp out at Binny's LP. There were rats, tent flooded. Collectively blew $400+ on beer that mostly turned out to be infected.

    2016 - camped out at Binny's LP again (sans wife - shocker). Got ticket number 69 #nice

    Thanks. I still plan on going there, just curious if I need to get there closer to midnight or 6 am.

    Here it is! 5/5 of the collaboration series. Local makers @StockMfgCo just stitched up this handsome utility shirt. Come on by the Taproom or Clybourn Brewhouse on Friday to snag one. They'll be up on our merch store a week later for all your digital purchasing needs!

    Snazzy, but I wish you could *actually* see the full shirt. Wish there were details (what it is made of, etc.)

    Looks like a (nice) BCS denim shirt, to me.

    It's made from BCBS, no? Ahh, nothing quite like living the denim lifestyle.

    Now all you need is a pair of BCBS Jeans and you will have the whole BCBS Canadian Tuxedo.

    If we get to 666 pages by Friday are we allowed to make t-shirts then?

    I rolled in at 9:00 last year. They had 1100 ticketed allocations. We were 1115. We got a full allocation, as did about 10 more people behind us.

    Unless you need a big vintage variant like VR, there's no need to get there at an ungodly hour. If you want a VR, get there Thursday night at like 11.

    Outside of that, there was very little difference between 6:00am and 9:00am last year. I think the most notable difference was more vintage coffee bottles, and some older regular BCBS

    If they got stopped from doing this event it would be the single gratest thing to happen to craft beer sice Sam Adams brewed their first beer.

    Random question - my sis lives in Lincoln Park and was going to look for variants early Friday morning for me before work. Does Jewell get prop and will they sell at 7 am?

    I was inquiring about the Naperville Jewel. Wasn't sure if it'll be crazy there or just roll up at 9, grab full allocation and run?
