    Same email here. Bummer, but not really SP's fault. Shit happens.

    So there were 400 people that bought it within 3 minutes when they only had 36 bottles. So best case was that greater than 90% of people who were willing to buy it would have been turned away. Really don't see the point in doing a cellar sale like that - annoys way more people than it would ever make happy

    Serious question, why even put 36 bottles of this on sale for LC? I'm no marketing genius, but the fallout was easy to predict here. These would have made perfect sense for on-site consumption.

    Surprise ‘we’re sorry’ release?

    or should we be thankful for the chance to purchase a theoretical bbt?

    1st year in La Coterie. Didn’t expect to be this underwhelmed this early in the year by this brewery. #hoodwinked

    But LC is supposed to get first crack at most of the bottles anyway?

    Considering we are half way through the year, and by this time last year we had a decent amount of solid offerings, I’m pretty disappointed as well. But whatever. At least we have BBT 25 to look forward to. Hopefully packaging is the same as last year

    Pallbearer melange is amazing, I’d put that up against db assassin even in complexity
