    I've got a 5 pack of it in my apartment. I will sell it to you for the low price of $10 a can.

    At this point any stores that still have it are cellaring it to sell to you next year at a "premium" in a vertical. You know, same beer, different can design every year.

    I just wanted to gripe about the BA Silhouette bottle release. I was mentally prepared for it to be a difficult and frustrating process, and then when I actually went to buy my bottle tickets, everything was quick and easy.

    It's really too bad that the process didn't turn out to be stressful and challenging, as then I would have felt like all of the time I spent worrying about getting my tickets in advance was warranted, rather then completely unnecessary. I wish I could have stood in a line, experienced a website crash, or SOMETHING to validate my concerns.

    I guess I will be able to console myself with my 3 bottles of BA Silhouette, but I can't get them for like a month and I'll just have to get by in the meantime.

    I agree, what happened? I had two computers, one on wifi and the other on my hotspot and also my phone ready to go. I spent more time getting setup and ignoring my family than ordering the tickets for the bottles!

    Also, without it selling out in minutes or seconds, or major drama around it. How I am going to highly overvalue it in trades? This sucks!

    I'm mad because I didn't have enough mules to buy the 4 cases of limited release beers that I usually get. The unemployed friends I usually rely on don't have fast internet.

    You know someone will complain about a Female Mule at LiftBridge, because you know, Females don't actually drink good beer, or poop for that matter, the latter is definitely true

    I'm pissed off that they didn't wait until the work week for the Silhouette release. It's the only advantage that I have to finding any of the great beers! Lift Bridge owes me now. Why didn't they do a 2 staged release?

    My wife will be there! She hates dark beers. She informed me she still has 3 Rumkings from that release! I wonder what she'll take in trade. More than likely something I can't give her. Or don't want to!

    Preemptive "hey dude it's only beer, who cares?" post can be marked off of the list.
