More Brewing (2021)

Not actionable information, but Henna Coconut Double Rainbow sold out in 10 seconds from both locations. Lots of butthurt on social media from those who would rather spend 7 hours in line for a chance. Was a little surprised by limit 3 2-packs given the demand though, especially with proxies allowed.

 

Yeah, I saw the proxies and the limit and was like "enjoy your toasted coconut"....

 

Yep. I hit buy now and by the time I hit pay 3 seconds later, it wasn't available.

 

I certainly will not stand in line for 7 hours for a beer. BUT, allowing 3 pp and proxies is a joke. This isn't the "entitled" argument. I think it's a farce to allow such high allocations and proxies for an in-demand beer. I would be willing to bet that 2/3rds of this product is just going to be sold at 2x face value. More's balance sheet doesn't care though.

Personally I like this app. If I ever win, great...if I don't, move on. More though should have set reasonable limits. 1 pp with or without proxies. They won't lose any money if this beer didn't sell out for an hour, or eve 12. It's just a way to create manufactured demand, and put money in the pockets of people who like to fleece others.

As Joshua in War Games taught us all in 1983..the only winning move is not to play.

 

This is kinda More’s thing though right? They love to post about fast sell outs or how long the line is at a release.

 

I think this is well said regarding the relatively high limits and the apparently scare supply. I heard you can buy on Tavour though!

 

Goddammit, I'd piss on a spark plug if I thought it'd do any good!

 

When the beer that sells out in 10 seconds online for pickup in the burbs hits distro in the city

 

Can you still taste the rar?

 

Which beer?

NVM I READ the posts above yours

 

Oznr lottery worth checking out. So Roaming Elephant isn't in 3rd use barrels this time? That's a bummer.

 

I would like to pick up at Huntley please

 

Emails going out

 

Got Revelatory but wanted Roaming Elephant.

If anyone is on opposite side…

 

0-2, of course.

It's this kind of luck that is going to make me buy 2 Dark Lord packages this year instead of just one.

 

2 for 2. Not sure how lucky that is, but happy to win my first Oznr lottery.

And I’ll likely buy 2 Dark Lord packages …

Ugh, wallet is in fire and still have too much beer. Time to get to work.

 

O fer here. I assumed if I got one, it would be your situation and I'd be trying to swap too.

Not that I got it, but bummed that Roaming wasn't aged in Mehndi barrels like last time. Wonder why they didn't do that this time? The last batch was great and nothing wrong with it from what I know.

 

I got roaming elephant. Wife got the stout. Was more looking forward to the BW as that’s my wife’s favorite style.

don’t get me wrong I’m excited for both, now hopefully standard does a release and I can kill 2 birds with one stone.
