    +/- on $4$ Huna trades?

    I'll take the under if the number isn't single digits.

    I plan on being there by 7:50am at the latest. Are you guys planning on gettng there much earlier than that? Hmm, might have to bring along a small selection to sample too......then again, the tap list from last year looked to so good that there may be too many beers on tap there to try already!!!

    Bring 'me. You can't start drinking beers inside the release until (gasp!!) 9am. By the time we actually get in the gates that will leave several hours of unnecessary sobriety!

    There will be a 3 bottle limit for the first 4,000 guests. They will receive a special wristband. The next 1,000 guests will be limited to 2 bottles and will receive a different wristband.

    Thanks for posting the info! For anyone that has attended what is a decent time to show up to get the wristband? I have someone that is willing to go for me down there but not sure they will be wanting to stand in line from the wee hours of the morning. Looking to just get my hands on one maybe two bottles, not concerned with the 3 bottle wristband at this point.​

    Tell them to show up at 7:30am, get the wristband and then come back at noon.

    You will definitely see it, but not all of us down here are like that, lol.

    Hell I plan on dropping one of my bottles into a BIF box and sending another to a past trader. Now if someone posts an ISO: '13 Hunahpu FT: Rare, who the hell am I to turn that down!!!

    Couldn't it actually be (considerably) higher? They said at 5pm a 12 bottle limit per person is going in effect. That's a super high limit if they're only expecting a few hundred bottles to go unsold from the wristbands. I'd think they'd have another few thousand extra for that...

    They also said there is no guarantee that any will be left by 5pm, so I'm assuming they will be available at 5pm ONLY if they don't hand out all of the wristbands.

    This sounds like a certain southeastern Ohio brewery and their last bottle release...

    Oh yes, it could be higher, but I doubt it will be thousands of bottles more. Last year they opened it up to whatever is left and IIRC there were about 70 cases left for sale.

    14000 bottles is more than triple what they produced last year which I believe was about 4000 bottles. To keep an accurate account of that many bottles isn't going to happen, especially since they probably haven't even bottled it yet! And last year many of the extra bottles were from people who didn't purchase their full allotment. Hell, I personally witnessed several people who got so blasted drunk that they had a wristband and never bought a single bottle! Kind of hard to get your bottles when you are passed out cold on a lawn chair in the middle of the release.
