    For the first Curvature, they delivered as early as the Wednesday before and it wasn't all sites in one day (even with just 5 sites). If they do it the same way, good luck to the chasers, lol

    Grand mules with baby strollers for added effect.

    I can probably just swing by binny’s LP at 11a and snag one no line, ya? Because that would be super convenient.

    I read it as "line up at these places".

    Super easy day at Beer On The Wall...10 mins in line to get a ticket.

    Dope brunch at Pennyville Station.

    Walk back in & select an impressive mixed 6 pack (they let you break anything up there, huzzah!)

    0 minute wait to pick up the bottle.

    This was my first visit there, I'll be back!!

    It’ll be interesting to see how accounts are rotated for future releases. Fischman’s is just prime for me.

    I’m being whiny, but nonetheless, I hate these format releases more than anything. “Surprise, go immediately drop everything you’re planning for your beautiful Saturday, because we’re sure you have nothing better to do!”

    Were the allocations to bottle shops today similar to those of Curvature b1?

    I mean, what would be better? Everything is done by lottery? They don't release any stouts until they have a big enough quantity to get it to everyone?

    Gotta love the photos of 3 bottles posted for $100 each on social media. Did some places not do the 1 bottle limit or do these entrepreneurs just have many plus ones?

    I enjoy these releases, working until 5 and having a family, the only 2 phase 3 releases i have been able to get have been the curvatures. Everything else is sold out at open bottle or crafted by the time i get off work. Both times ive shown up about 30-45 minutes after post and both times ive gotten, easy peasy.

    So much butthurt from people who missed out on this release. Honestly phase threes releases are refreshing in a climate of tried and tired release schedules

    binnys lp was 2pp. plans to drink/share both of them. bringing one to my annual portland, or trip where ive acquired like-minded friends by simply sharing the beer instead of selling it for MaXiMuM ProFiTz.

    buddy opened his today - it's shauns classic fudgey base with waves of earthy dark/bakers chocolate and cake-y brownie. its tasty.

    I think some were 2pp but even then, do the math @1pp

    Neckbeard + mom + dad = three bottles of curvature

    It's kinda funny / sad that some people can't even get out of the parking lot before posting their sale of the bottle for $150

    All about max profits. Well before people realize how much was made or how attainable it is, you get more for it.

    While in line at MD some guy was talking about how his friend sold his bottle of TG X for 850 right after he bought it and before people realized how much TG X was actually made. Kind of like how ridiculous the original trades for TG X were as well
