    For those that hate seeing a giant wall of text on a sale webpage, here is the important giant wall of text about dates.

    Starting Monday, January 19th at 11:00am, you will be able to purchase up to four (4) bottles of AleSmith/Mikkeller Collaboration: Beer Geek Speedway Imperial Oatmeal Stout with Kopi Luwak Coffee. Each bottle is $25.00 before tax and Brown Paper Ticket service fee.

    Please note; you will need to enter the name of the person picking up the bottles (your or your proxy's name) as the attendee ("attendee name") next to each bottle purchased. Once you place your order, your name ("buyer name") will be registered and any duplicate sales to the same buyer name will be voided.

    Bottles can be picked up starting Saturday, January 24th at our release party in the AleSmith Tasting Room. Bottles can be retrieved during tasting room hours from Saturday, January 24th through Sunday, March 8th 2015. (Tasting Room Hours: Mon-Fri: 12pm-9pm, Sat: 11am-9pm & Sun: 11am-7pm.) **Any bottles not retrieved by SUNDAY, MARCH 8th will be surrendered back to the brewery (no exceptions).**

    Cheers.

    Just that kitty coffee. Also you weren't suppose to see this thread yet. You were suppose to check the trade forums to find out this was being released. =P

    Kopi Luwak coffee isn't cheap?

    I'm sure they are using Mikkeller's Kopi supplier for this.

    Have the rules changed about proxies or has it always been allowed?

    If its a new rule, maybe they've got a lot of this one (or it's gonna sell out quick as hell)

    Wait. Is this Speedway, or an "Imperial Oatmeal Stout"? Throwing adjust at Speedway is one thing, changing the base recipe is another.

    $25 a bottle is absurd for a stout that isn't BA.

    Probably why they're letting anyone and their mom pick it up.

    If there was ever an opportunity for you guys to vote with your wallets, it's now. These breweries charge absurd prices because we, as a community, keep buying them.

    Has there been a Beer Geek collab that was actually good? The Anchorage one was average at best.

    Trying to talk myself out of spending $25 on a non-BA oatmeal stout lol

    That Anchorage collab was the first Mikkeller beer I bought in a few years and I was filled with regret after I tasted it.

    "The beans are then gathered from jungle floors ... "

    Newsflash, they do not have people roaming through the jungle gathering poop beans. They are caged and force fed, I thought we were done with this crap?
