    we/Knife have a reservation for 11am brunch, might be able to squeeze you in. Hit him up if you think you are going to make it.

    Has anyone heard about the results of the 3L lottery yet?

    I went to a conference at OSU back in October and spent an evening at Block 15 with my coworkers. Demon's Farm was pretty damn impressive.

    If any BAs need a brunch reservation I have a 4 person reservation for 10am but only three people. If you'd like to join (and get your full allocation without waiting in line) BM me!

    I'll be in town on the 19th. Is there any hope that there will still be bottles available by then, or that they'll still have some of those beers on tap?

    Thanks! Cheers!

    I'd imagine some will still be on tap. I wouldn't hold out too much hope for bottles, though.

    They'll have a 1 bottle per person limit and then fail to enforce a no line cutting policy if last year is any indication.

    I went the Tuesday after the release last year and missed the last bottles by about an hour. I'm guessing they won't even last until Sunday this year. Only 89 cases are being released.

    The limit for both SN & Pappy's is six, FYI.

    He was asking about the PDX release. I may or may not have had a bad experience last year.

    Ah. My bad. I didn't read the post he'd quoted. Disregard.

    I'm sure the bottles will be all gone, if last year is any indication. With that much beer on tap, it's very likely there will be a few of the kegs left on the 19th. Provision will def still be there, and Pappy's could still be on. Hell, Figgy was on for 4 or 5 days after last year's, though Super Neb and Canary will fly.

    We had a 2 bottle limit last year (1 max of the Super Nebula), and as far as the 'no-cutting' policy, I'm not sure how prevalent it was (didn't seem like it, but I was pretty busy) but also not sure how to "enforce" one. It's kind of a no-brainer no-no and generally enforced by people in line. This year, I'll have the cashier remind customers loudly they must have traveled through the entire line personally to get their bottles. That work for you?

    Just curious...if anyone who wants to trade the 3L Super Nebula they won for a 3L Eclipse Grand Cru, which was brewery only too, please let me know! I had no such luck in winning one today. :slight_frown:
