    This is probably something worth mentioning in future updates. Unless you have AT&T you're looking at a 40 minute dead zone while driving through the Tillamook Forest on Hwy 6, and you'll be lucky to get decent service at the brewery.

    One of my favorite things is seeing dudes feverishly trying to check beers in while inside the brewery and failing. and then continuing to try.

    I'm weird. I know.

    No no. I totally agree with this. Such despair can be seen when the wifi doesn't work.

    Had a dream last night that the list had come out...woke up and went straight to FB and NOTHING! lol. FB will be where they post the info. They usually send out a Keepers email right around the same time. And I'm sure it'll be posted in the forums here within minutes of the announcement

    Personally, I think it would be great if we don't get a list of bottles before the event next Saturday.

    Because let's be honest, it's not like you WON'T buy everything.

    Hey all,
    We had hoped to have the final list out today. It WILL be tomorrow. Apologies for being later than anticipated.
    We were looking at a new (very old and awesome) space to potentially make a new home at. And then... more important things happened.
    Send good thoughts to Paris. And, let's be thankful for what we have today. Our neighborhood bars and breweries weren't attacked or bombed.
    We can be grateful, but we can also raise a glass to those folks who went through, and are going through, some serious times. We all like good company and a good drink, and damn the people that instigated attacks against people enjoying just such. Whomever they end up being, damn them.

    We'll update everyone tomorrow on Facebook. For now, we really don't feel it matters, or is the right time.

    @deGardebrewing, I hope you take the leap of faith and decide to keep the beers private until the actual release. Why does anybody else NEED to know beforehand? They will still have the choice before having to pay for any bottles.

    We feel compelled to post the list primarily so people can plan/budget appropriately. Since we process sales at events as cash only to expedite the process, it does require some preparation.

    Oh, and the list was just posted...

    Does anybody have information about "The Lily", "The Purple" and the other two Bu variations being released?

    I know what they are, but not seeing allocation info anywhere.

    I'm trying really hard to not buy the whole allotment. I don't need everything. I don't need everything. I don't need everything.

    [sigh]
