    You brought your toddler, didn't you? Just put some Fla-Vor-Ice on it. They'll be fine. Builds character.

    Should have brought a couple cases of Naturday to stay hydrated.

    I am not a doctor but I think that is a symptom of heat stroke.

    You should play a doctor on BeerAdvocate. Very convincing.

    Guys, remember, if you answer and he pulls through the friend might take your allocation...

    a refreshing perspective indeed, much like a barleywine on a 100 degree afternoon

    Personally, I only drink barleywine when I'm drenched in sweat.

    Last minute variant was added to the list - salted strawberry barleywine.

    Shamefully, I'd still probably buy it.

    When the fight breaks out over the last 4 pack you can be sure they will have assaulted strawberry barleywine.

    I have been expecting the turnout for this to be not as bad as some others have mentioned on here. I figured that cans would make it through most of the evening. Between it being "only" a barleywine and the weather, I figured people would be a bit more casual with this release. And based on the showing at one of the tasting previews last night, I would have expected the cans to last into tomorrow - there was hardly anybody at the one I was at.

    Of course, all of that means it will be a complete mess and there's probably already 600 people lined up.

    I just can't see a BW release in 100+ deg heat being a s***show but the community never ceases to amaze me.
