    Technically, while outside of the fenced in area it WOULD be a violation of a city ordinance open container law. This law has since been decriminalized and is now only a $75 ticket instead of jail. That being said, I doubt TPD or anyone else is going to bother with several hundred (or thousand) people doing bottle shares in the line outside of CCB gates. Just make sure to put that Blabaer in a paper bag when you drink out of it.

    You are absolutely NOT ALLOWED TO DRINK IN LINE.

    Those of you that know Cigar City should know it's relationship with the surrounding neighborhood and animosity for the Redner family on the Tampa City Council.

    Do NOT jeopardize CCB's wet licensing by refusing to wait until 9am to pop open a brew.

    Once inside the fenced in area - pop whatever you'd like, but don't do it in line.

    Here is my idea regarding the numerous questions regarding when "we should get there". No one should get there before Cesar V. its tradition at this point. So the the real question is "so Cesar, when are you showing up?"

    Okay, wait just a second. You seem like a nice enough guy and I am looking forward to meeting you at CCB for the release. I have been to the release for the past 2 years. Many, MANY beers have been shared in line before going into the release area. I'm not saying pull down your pants and throw beer on people, be discreet, not an idiot. The TPD guys are very cool, just be an adult, this isn't a sink or swim for $10 at some dive bar.
    Two of my brothers are Tampa Police officers, please treat all of the officers there with the respect they deserve and act appropriately and there won't be any problems. Everyone use their heads and it should be a good time for all.

    I understand where you are coming from - but I just don't feel the risk is worth it. I'm less worried about the cops and more worried about the neighborhood.

    So what's up with BA Hun? Is that a separate release? Or is it not happening this year?

    The last two releases there haven't been any problems that I am aware of. As long as everyone parks in the assigned areas, the neighborhood knows what is going on. They are fine with it for the most part. Hell, some people charge for parking in their hard and happy to have the extra income! Until I see/hear of/read about a problem or instance I stand by my post. I have lived here a long time. It's nice to have something in this town bringing people together for a fantastic event that isn't sports related.

    '96??? Shit, I was out of the party game a couple of years before that. Bring plenty of D batteries for that boom box. Isn't your motto 'screw them cops, man!"?

    After the mess that the BA Hunahpu release was... I doubt it is ever released again. Maybe like Three Floyds does with a raffle.

    When I get out of hand they just drive-stun me in the back of my head and put me in a cab.

    Out of curiosity I just calculated back to figure out how many barrels of Huna they are selling.... 14,000 bottles works out to right at 89.5 barrels, so I would think there was at least another 10-20% more than that brewed, maybe more...

    One has to think they have a few more than 14,000 bottles if that is the minimum they need to sell bottles to every wristband. I would assume that they end up right around 15,000 bottles. Then you include kegs and stuff that goes into barrels...

    from what ive seen only 1099 cases were sent to JJ Taylor. 14k I don't think so.

    1099 x 12 = over 13,000. So, even if you're right, that's not terribly far off.

    joshodonn Initiate (0) Jan 21, 2011 Florida

    Why would they send Huna to JJ? Isn't that the whole purpose of an on-site brewery release, they cut the distributor out of the cashflow?

    I will be getting my allotment, plus whatever else I can get my hands on...and I'm not trading any! I've learned from past trades that I just usually don't like the traded beer as much as I like my Hunahpu:slight_smile:

    More than willing to share of course.
