Black Friday 2014 Bourbon County Release

This actually wasn't completely horrible.

 

Luekens Liquors is another spot to check out. Their Facebook page has some info on their release and what store locations are getting what.

 

No it wasn't. I'd say it was moderately tolerable.

 

Thank you.

 

Is anyone else appalled by the idea of intentionally causing mass hysteria by nationally releasing "limited edition" beers on Black Friday? There is a shit ton of this stuff thats made, and I'm almost rather see them send larger amounts to fewer markets. Sending 1 case to every store you do business with in every market you distro to just spreads the supply too thin and ultimately leads to a lot of customers being disappointed in being shut out.

I'll probably partake, because I'm a sucker and because there beers are freaking delicious, but it screams AB/InBev douchebaggery.

 

I think you've heard wrong.

 

I really, really hope you are right. Its tough to tell if TW personnel are just continuing their streak of being clueless on beer or maybe this time they actually know something and aren't saying anything. Tough call.

 

what mass hysteria? they put up a promo sign at places it would be available and then told you when it was available. These are seasonal beers, not limited beers. There are like 25 people on the internet worrying about these beers. there is no mass hysteria, really no concern at all. wake up on black friday, head to the store and grab some beer and come home and watch football.

oh woe is me.

 

Hope you're right fella. Hysteria, no, but certainly would merit "ragged edge of shit show" at least in town. I'd love to know where you're going to breeze into after 10am and casually pick up a 4pk.

 

I see no reason to conclude that their unblemished streak of cluelessness has been broken. At this point, I've heard so much contradictory information from so many supposedly informed sources, I have just decided that either some of these sources are lying, or nobody knows what the fuck they're talking about.

 

well I can't give away my secret locations....

just kidding. I doubt that it will be that crazy around town.

Seems like total, tower, greens, ale yeah and several other places are getting it. Then lots of places are getting kegs. There is no reason to see any drama around this beer in GA.

 

Well, then what's the point? kidding, really. I think people are taking beer way too seriously these days. But if it gets people buying and making the beer industry money, I guess it can't all be bad.

 

Any idea which places are getting kegs? I know three locations of Taco Mac are getting them but not sure if there are other Taco Mac locations that will get them as well. Also, any North OTP kegs?

 

I mean I am already in line with 10 mules, but yeah no drama. I wouldnt even bother coming out. i plan to buy all the beer.

plus it will be super cold and Atlanta can be an extremely dangerous place. best to stay home.

 

couldnt tell you. I know that it seems like any place that might possibly get kegs and bottles appear to be getting kegs and bottles. If you look around you should be able to find a pour without too much trouble.

 

Wait....places that are getting kegs and bottles are getting kegs and bottles? Weird.

 

Thank you, I know TW is getting bottles. Only reason I asked is that i work till 8pm on black friday (i know-retail) and did not want to drive around all over the place to get a pour on tap. Lived up in MN and WI and BCBS is my fav beer

 

well they might get bottles and kegs...or kegs or bottles or bottles and/or kegs...pretty sure the ingles is getting 3 cases.

 

I prefer bottled kegs myself...
