    Any idea or memory recall on total bottle count last year? Wonder how many are split between 7 pickup windows....

    Side Project rarely, if ever, announces bottle counts. I think I recall speculation of 2k bottles, but it’s all guesswork

    It doesn't sound like they are "split up" between the windows, are they? Sounds like they are giving you an option of when to pick up your purchase...

    Yeah that is more then likely it....who knows though. Just was curious of bottle totals of which now I know SP never releases. No worries....

    It’s definitely split up because every time they’ve done this certain pick ups would sell out before others

    Yes, would be split up. That keeps from 500 ppl showing up one day to pick up and only 50 another

    I think 2017 it was more like 40 minutes, shockingly enough. Either way I'm looking forward to not blinking on Sunday morning.

    I wonder if there's even such a thing as "extra" BBT. That implies that it's possible to have more than enough BBT.

    Pardon me if this makes me a terrible person for getting around the proxy rule ...I live in New Jersey and I love Side Project and I promise not to sell it on secondary. I will drink the entire bottle myself in one sitting and even chug the last three ounces on Facebook live.

    I have a friend in STL who can pick up a bottle for me. I’m quick on the Instagram trigger. If I enter his name on the purchase but use my credit card (in my name) could he still pick it up for me? Not sure if anyone knows.

    So no.

    But really though the only thing the blog post says is "the purchased ticket name must match the name on your photo ID."

    so...

    do it.

    Looked like a pretty good turn out tonight for D12. Cory was there unloading more boxes of it when I left so must have been going through a lot.

    I thought it was great, lots of cinnamon and maple. Other first impressions?

    He made it seem like he was there to restock for the evening. Said we were going through it it fast.
    Either way seems like there should be plenty for the whole weekend. Its seemed to me some of the past releases allocated for each on site day had sold out fairly quickly. Doesn't appear that will be the case for this one.

    I would think they don’t want one person picking up for 7 “friends”. If one person picks up one bottle and it was paid for by a credit card with someone else’s name (who also only bought one bottle) on it... you’d think that would be fine. Plus there are people out there who don’t have credit cards, so they would be SOL.

    They kicked all 3 kegs of ipa and I think maybe sold more bottles than they anticipated so Cory brought backups. I’m glad he did because beaches was fantastic.

    It’s interesting to read others thoughts on D12, especially the cinnamon part. I would say on a scale of 1-10 that cinnamon was at a 2 for me. I had coconut floaties all night in my glass from my bottles and my wife’s. Such an incredible beer!
