    Oh and to be clear, that last line with the phone number was my little embellishment. I'm just saying, you know, you should probably call them.

    I'm at the UBG now. Picked up another 2 bottles and was told their allocation is 160 cases. They've sold 100 cases in 6 days. So that leaves 60 cases.

    Hmmm. 160 - 100 = 60. I think that's right. I've never really been good at math.

    I find that if you take away the zeroes, it makes the computation easier.

    OK. 16 - 1 = 15. Only 15 more cases. I better get there on the double. There's less than I thought!

    So Fremont just tweeted that they are making 250 barrels of BBomb for 2014. Seems like a ton, anyone remember how many cases per barrel?

    Dang, back to this math thing. All I know is 53 gallons per barrel.

    So 5.8 22oz beers per gallon, 307 bottles per barrel, and 76.5k bottles total. So much for rare beer in Washington.

    I'm bad at math too, but I think 250 barrels is more than a ton.

    Math and beer coexist poorly.
    We are filling 150 bourbon barrels for 2014 Bbomb and 100 barrels for 2014 KDS or BBADS. 22oz bottle equivalent depends on how much we lose to the Angels Share and draft allocation but it's roughly 1500 and 1000 cases respectively. In beer terms it's a " bigassfuckload":slight_smile:

    Thank you. I much prefer BAFL of awesome beer than rare awesome beer.

    So... when should we expect to see BAFL on tap?

    You know you want to name a beer that. :slight_smile:
