    BBBB is correct.

    "Homer's BBBQ. The extra B is for BYOBB."
    "What's that extra B for?"
    "It's a typo."

    Yeah right, it is GTOMW and a fruited NG Wild Ale. Game over man, game over. I took off Thur. hoping it will be the least chaotic day before the swarms arrive for Fri and Sat mornings.

    Fruitzzz?!?!?! As this is guaranteed to be a trader's delight release I will be bringing this magic box and setting up in the NG parking lot for those who might need, ahem, a costume change. $25 a spin and 2 spins for $45. Spin on all three days and you get a free spin for the next R&D release. I expect a lot of business from FIBs so anyone from WI will get a $5 discount. Volume discounts will be available for those with mules. Please enquire via BM. I'm guessing the guy with the sticker on his rear windshield might like to take advantage of the volume discount. Please note the magic box is unisex. The below gif demo is an example for your significant mule, I mean other. Looking forward to a busy three days. Cheers!

    After seeing some of the people in line the last few years I think you'll need a bigger box.

    Unfortunately there isn't a whole lot they can do about clothes changing douches. Unless other releases have done something that works short of an ID combined with a named ticket at POS.

    Unless I'm missing something aren't these two problems somewhat mutually exclusive? If the release is busy and you have to be in line before they start selling bottles that means you can't get back in line a second time (barring line jumping). This isn't like the CW15 VIP debacle.

    That said, I'm hoping there are plenty of bottles and you don't have to get in line crazy early which means of course that some people will be changing clothes. What about using that ink that some countries make you dip your fingers in for elections? My quick wikipedia reading shows that you just need to use silver nitrate in the ink and it's impossible to wash off. It'll stain your nail/cuticle for 2-4 weeks but that's a small price to pay for delicious NG beer.

    Anyone know a bottle count? I saw on another site someone saying 38 bbl. Not sure how true this is. anyone closer to the source have a more trustworthy number?

    The label says 38 bbl which seems pretty trustworthy.

    Yep, 38bbl for this one vs. 32bbl for Wild Bitter, but I'm sure WAY more people will be showing up the 3 days for this release.

    Were you at the Wild Peach release? Same weekend as GTOMW. All tickets sold out by 9-10 am. In addition, your ink wouldn't work. It wouldn't allow people to go back each day. Unless they dipped, pinky, thumb and so on...but that's just dumb.

    Loved the Bourbon Barrel Kriek, hopefully this is just as tasty

    Is this true? I'm for it, but I haven't heard it anywhere else yet.

    I heard they were just going to have a person standing there scowling at people who went through that much. The "I'm not mad at you, just disappointed" Scowl. Thankfully my parents made me immune to that now.
