BA Abraxas

Have you tried asking in the US-Midwest forum?

 

Won't be until late next winter or even spring

 

And hopefully people don't hire bums to buy beer for them this round

 

Hopefully mid-week, with about 24 hours advance notice.

 

For sure

 

They did it for Sump and BA17 and I felt like they went pretty smooth

 

If I see people hiring bums again I'm going to say something

 

Yes, I had never thought such a thing would happen but it did. I'd bet the thread is still around in the new releases forum if you search

Some guy from Chicago posted ads on Craigslist and hired them to mule for him. He walked out with around 60+ bottles. People on here know who it is, but nobody ever says anything.

 

What a fun thread! But it looks like someone did say something:

So unless that post is a joke...?

 

Dunno. Heard it wasn't The Gross though.

 

It's not. But it was someone else fom Chicago. He did mule a bunch for other people, so I guess those guys are cool with it. Im personally not a big fan as it really isn't fair to the supportive locals, and just seems shady. But I'm sure others will disagree with me.

 

What were the details of this release, i.e. bottle count, limits, price? Anyone know how it's drinking right now?

 

No one drinks beer here, we all trade for it and state at it in our cellars. Duh lol

 

I imagine the release will be in may or June next year, unless they brewed multiple batches, months apart
