Another Bruery Stress Test

No

 

Yes if not 10:05. I'm surprised no one has asked about EST or PST yet.

 

I'd say closer to 10:05.

 

i hope there is a bottle limit on greay monday.... and some of the others as well..

we'll see

 

from facebook...

"Hey everyone! Pickups from stress test purchases will begin 10/25. All customers (even non society members) will be able to select pickup for this day only, and orders must be picked up by 12/31/2013. Everything has a bottle limit of 1, except Smoking Wood and Rueuze. All the bottles are the regular release versions, and not the 100% bourbon barrel aged versions."

 

Are there two versions of PiaPT (100% barrel and not) or only one??

 

I believe there are 3 barrel aged versions and the regular.

 

Any Bruery employees willing to comment on whether it will be a staggered release or if all options will flash up on the site at the same time? I remember StressTest1 bogged their end down so it took time for certain bottles to become available. I think some people scored late by just refreshing for 10-15 mins.

 

I will continue to drink all of the Smoking Wood that no one else likes.

 

I don't get this statement: "Pickups from stress test purchases will begin 10/25. All customers (even non society members) will be able to select pickup for this day only, and orders must be picked up by 12/31/2013." Does that mean that you can only pick up your haul on 10/25 and not on any other day?

 

It means for Monday, you can't select shopping as an option, only pickup. Pickups will be available after 10/25 until 12/31.

 

I thought it means non-members will be bale to select pickup this time, that they usually have to ship.

 

I'm going BT 2011, Rueuze 2012, and then see if anything else is left.

 

Oh, maybe that's the case.

 

This is incorrect. That is true of Papier, not PiaPT (Partridge in a Pear Tree)

 

right i misread thx

 

So.....are these open to preservation members too?

 

The bottom 3 are RS/HS only, everything else is public.

 

I think the "strategies" are so fascinating. I'm also contemplating whether to just shoot right in and try only for PiaPT and check out lightning quick... Or just forego the sure shitshow and go for some of the realistic options and take my time. I'm also so curious what's going to happen to the site. It cracked me up when it stalled last time and people complained that the "stress test" sale didn't work very well.

I think the best strategy is simply to stash 24 PiaPT in a cart for 15 minutes... then do the same thing at 15:01.

 

I'm actually hoping they let you ship. If not though, I'm worried that the statement reads that all non-members must pick up their stash on 10/25.
