    They just added the BourbRum BA Pt5 to the bottle list. 432 4-packs. 1 4-pack limit.

    That's why he's wearing a Michigan jacket, to throw us off the scent.

    This makes things much more interesting. Mules & line cutters have started their stretching exercises in earnest now.

    I guarantee a lot of people are reconsidering when they were planning on getting in line based on this news. This thread got awfully quiet all of a sudden:wink: If anything, those two will be having neighbors sooner than originally anticipated

    This is why a bunch of the shit surrounding craft beer is more trouble than it's worth. It makes no logical sense to line up now, but once a few people do, other people start panicking and it just compounds itself.

    You're probably right. I was certain I would be in line in time to get a 4-pack of 2012, now that's doubtful.

    Just pulled up to Marshall, MI thinking I could have a beer or two at Dark Horse and come back in a few hours to start the line. Shit. There is already 150 people in line from what looks like rented Ford Transit Connects from Illinios. The FIBS have set the bar real high this year. I might just turn around. Don't think I can handle 18 hours in this line.

    Would have been kinda cool if DH kept the DB 4 pks on the down low and just sold to the first 400 or maybe do a lottery (i.e., order #s 708, 833, etc). Now it just creates more of a frenzy than what it seemed it was going to be based on the higher yield of BBPT5 this year.

    I have to assume he was being sarcastic.

    I heard the bourbon portion of BourbRum was aged in Pappy barrels, can anybody confirm this?
