    Also depends on how much these places were given. I know a place by my house got one in last year and they sold out in 11 minutes. People came 2 hours early for it....but granted im on the east side so it was not as readily available as it will be out there.

    they have made 3 times more, they keg more and send more to the 24 other states that get it. When did they say they would triple production for the greedy FIBS to come and mule.

    Ucellos and peppinos will probably be your best bet, billys Is a whole in the wall in the ghetto, and meanwhile will probably be packed.

    The worst part was waiting in line overnight, I heard that people were there at 8PM getting in line. I got there at 2am and was around number 230.

    I hear you on that, it snowed that night and I froze my kiester off. They had 600 cases limit 2 cases per person, I was only getting one case, had several people offer me to get the other for them, I told them I wanted to spread the wealth and enable someone else the ability to enjoy it.

    Wow, so if you're not at or under #300 there's a slight chance you could miss out. Interesting.

    Officially 642 cases. I got there at 4:45am (which was 2 hrs later than I had planned on getting there) & I received full allocation of everything except 6 legs. I did hear that it wasn't too much behind me that the BBPt5th ran out so I was pretty lucky. Considering forms were handed out at 6am I only spent 1hr 15min in the snow & tried a couple of beers in line that I never had before which was cool.
    Also set up an IP trade with Steebo777 & the party was great with a ridiculous amount of beers that you don't normally see so I will definitely plan on doing it again next year

    From the Thursday list, the Winchester is small, but may not be too busy. Logan's is a great spot. BW and Twisted Rooster are both chain restaurants, but are both larger than the bars, so may be more liklihood of getting a table.

    Hard for me to consider East Town "the ghetto". :slight_smile:

    Every time I've tried getting into the Winchester (including weeknights) the place has been packed to the rafters. Might have something to do with their awesome food menu.

    East Town was ghetto before ghettos were ghetto.
