    Another sign-up for $30 brews. I wonder if this group gets first dibs on the Eclipse sales and what those limits will look like. Curiouser and curiouser.

    I'm in, big fan of FiftyFifty and get up to the pub every summer on the way to Tahoe so I'm excited. These clubs gotta just be killing the bottle shops tho - oh well, Firestone Walker, up next please.

    If you're referring to the Cellar for next year, I believe that ship has sailed.

    This is going to be an expensive month or so with the Rare Barrel and the Bruery RS.

    December 2nd @SHODriver .

    I've been tossing around joining up.

    @Catchy_Name , I think in one of the e-mails or on their website, it states that being a member doesn't get you into the Eclipse party. It'd be nice to be a member and have first right of refusal for at least 1 ticket - even if it can't be transferred and HAS to be you.

    I have definitely been waiting for this for about the last few years now! I can't wait to spend a lot every quarter of this club to get rare Eclipse, Cellar Stuff, and anything awesome! :slight_smile:

    I might sign up - $30/bottle isn't bad and I'm burnt out of the 500 Eclipse variants each year so this mixes it up.
