J Wakefield Releases

Anybody else see this gem on the Wakefest Facebook Event Page? Lol.

 

I hate it and love it at the same time. Love seeing free market and having ways to acquire beer that I don’t have access to....but hate the mentality and maxxx profits frame of mind some have.

Any beers I trade/buy is to acquire beers that me or my share group want to try.

 

Mixed on the burial cans. I want them but damn! $30 a 4 pack is rough

 

I'm so glad they decided to do bottle pickups this week. Just grabbed my bottles and a 4 pk of Hey Brother, in and out in 5 min. Definitely did not need to pay for my parking spot

 

How’s the beer? I was planning on going at 10am on Friday to grab bottles and then head to Civil but if it’s great, I may just stay down in Miami until 12. Assuming it doesn’t sell out

 

If you typically have no problem ponying up $20 for a 750ml (or even 22oz) of a stout, then this is actually a great deal.

 

I wouldn’t pay that. I go to Burial all the time though. Great beer but that’s crazy.

 

I'm guessing this is the post of screen shot of secondary sale?

Currently saying picture removed

 

Yeah, some dude listing bottles with prices....he hadn't even picked them up yet. I'm hoping J Wakefield drops the ban hammer on him.

 

Nope No chance.

 

That's a shame...one of my favorite moments from 2017 was when a dude who got into the Fundamental Summation release posted his bottles for sale on the BL Instagram comments and got his bottles refunded to him. Haha.

 

Yeah, Wakefield doesn't care. Supposedly he and the guy selling had a nice laugh about the messages he ( Wakefield) got about that post .

 

As a brewer, you must admit you would get a kick out of what people would pay to drink your beer. It's not like it is that big of secret either. Although there are def more low-key ways to go about it.

 

Same guy was trying to sell a VIP bracelet with no bottles for 350.

Def a max profits guy.

 

they might let you into the taproom early if you want to buy cans, they did that for me today. I was there at 1130 and they let me in to buy cans after I got my bottles

 

What a douche. Lol. You better believe I'm drinking my IWAAD with close friends.

 

No. I wanted to make sure it was the correct picture....

He posted later saying attempts to get him banned didn't work. And him and Wakefield had a laugh

 

I remember that! He went private after that lol

 

Why on earth would they do it on St Patrick's Day? The place will already be a zoo. It makes more business sense to do it the week before or after so that they will have two Satursdays where it's guaranteed to be packed instead of just one day.

 

Some florida brewery updates to the tap list:
