Beatification Release Go-ers and Trip Planners

If an SD folks have extras I am coming out from Michigan for the Craft Brewers Conference the first week of May. My suitcase will have room for beers to trade.

 

Does anyone want to share a bottle in pub with me? I would like to try a few things and still be able to drive at the end.

 

looks like they're gonna start selling bottles at 9am on Friday morning.. anyone want to head up to Healdsburg after?

Welp, guess that settles the question of whether I was gonna try getting the stuff before or after work that day. Time to set the stoopid-early alarms...

 

I'm excited by cold bottles not counting against the limit. Imma drink me some cold'uns at the brewery.

 

That and the split lines is just some awesome news.

 

Russian River doing it right again!

 

In-house bottles not counting against one's allocation is definitely great news for people going to the release. Not so much for those planning to come up Saturday. Not sure how this will affect trading as it will now sell out with potentially much less than 2000 people.

 

Or they didn't count those bottles in the release number.

 

Sure- I'll reheat my day-old SoCal burrito in the hotel microwave and we can have it with a two month old Hopslam.

 

YES. And a frosty glass of horchata to wash down the beer.

 

Because that's how all the Cool Kids Roll! Besides its a day off work and GeeZ just having some fun and sharing the beer love! :-) hope everyone has a blast I'm stuck here in the midwest but I've been to RR before and know it will be a good time vinnie's a hell of a guy!

Drink well soon!

 

It certainly sounds like it's going to sell out on Friday.

Oh well!

 

Hey guys!

I think 3 may be a stretch here. I saw another FT Chocolate Rain ISO 2 Beat a few days ago. However, all my Beat have been spoken for so I have no horse in this race.

 

Hence why I listed other beers to make up for any unbalance.

 

Why does it sound like that to you?

 

Assuming I dont get called in for jury duty, Im planning on driving up after work late Thursday and crashing in the city before getting up to sr bright and early. Ill see everyone there (fingers crossed).

 

The extra 2 hours of sales, and a hunch. I HOPE Im wrong but I'm mentally preparing myself for the worst case scenario, as I won't be getting to RR until 9PM or so.

 

Still going to take 2000 people maxing their allotment. I just hope the hand stamps don't rub off too easily... my only hope is this surviving until Saturday. Hope you all enjoy the journey!
