    nobody's really going to give up a Peche 'n Brett for a 4 pack of GD, are they? my mind is boggled. also boggled that there are local people with a lot of beer karma that only post in the FT forums and clearly just lurk here.

    Funny that guy posted about the cans before he has even bought them.

    I love the salesman pitch of: beautifully designed cans. That FT:ISO sounded like an infomercial.

    For every one of us who post here, there could be very well be 25 people per each one of us who read this thread but never post. Cmon lurkers, we know you are watching, make yourselves known :slight_smile:!

    It is amazing how the words "brewery only" and "case limit" automatically makes some people think that beer then has trade value on par with HF, Kern, AA, De Garde, etc. Maybe I should trade my Falsa Noctis (brewery only, limited run, 4 bottle limit) for some Side Project? Surprised this same dude did not try this type of trade.

    Hopefully by them opening early for the release it'll be less busy later in the day. I can't possibly see them selling out of cans this weekend.

    I am happy that other half is local and the hype train is rolling on, but was I the only one not impressed with superfun?

    I was going to head there tomorrow if any is still around after today...not really going to lose my mind over it though..if it's sold out I'll just load up on hi res, can't imagine GD is that much better than it!

    I hope I can snag the 4-pack I was planning on buying at 5:30 tonight. Otherwise, I'd best load up on Peche n Brett to trade.

    i'd hazard a guess that more than 50% of those cans being bought are with an eye towards trading.

    Word coming out of there is that a sellout is expected today. [edit - hey, thats what i heard! happy to be wrong]

    If there really are 60-70 people already in line I'm hoping that's just the initial rush and that after that it will slow down significantly. Either way, unless they sell out before 4 (which would be crazy IMO) I'm heading there from work and should get there around 5. Any BAs who can keep those of us stuck at work updated would be much appreciated!

    Just got an update--"OH doesn't expect to sell out today, line moved quick, most people weren't getting cases"
