Black Friday Bourbon County: Orlando

Agreed...almost assuredly this is how GI does allocate BC and it's varietals

 

May be the reason why I hear Naples/Ft.Myers has recently gotten higher allotments cause they don't have the brewery scene like Tampa/St.Pete so more people are buying Goose Island products from Total Wine.

 

I would have to think so...I know in Tampa Total Wine is the only place that ever seems to get Black Ops and they get a ton of it while Leukens gets none even though Leukens has a far better beer selection

 

It was about an hour before they opened. I think they opened early at 8AM for the release so I probably go there at 7.

 

I heard the complete opposite from the tw mall of millennia gm. Said they would be lucky to get any of the fruit variant and will get no rare at all.

 

Orlando gets all variants allocated. Shamrock will have the most followed by TW 50.

 

The rep screwed up the allotment and Big C is not getting any BCS this year but Shamrock is getting a lot.

 

Initial reports from connections in Distrobution. Shamrock's should be getting a ton. I've heard that they may doing an "event" for the release. The store hasn't said anything.

 

What is shamrocks? A store or distributor?

Orlando got hit with the BC bus this year... Might be the best distro in the country outside of Chicago..

 

sounds like most places will have plenty - except big C.

Support your local spot seems like the best plan. I also think most places are opening within an hour of each other so there won't be much time to hit multiple places.

 

I wish there were a machine into which one could type such questions ...

 

much easier to come here and get the responses and flames . just never heard of it, which is why i asked.

 

Exactly; I didn't wanna disappoint you!

I hadn't heard of it either. Hope you get all the BCBS + variants your heart desires. Cheers, friend!

 

Can't wait for shops to make us pick between Rare or Regal and then limit us to 1 bottle each of reg / coffee / bw.

Ideally I would prefer one of each available but if the line is long, I get it.

I won't complain either way.

 

So glad I have to work Friday....

 

Because of the internet, I can't tell if this is sarcasm, as if you're missing out but most places will be opening at 8am and 9am to release this beer and their will be lines of some sort everywhere, if you're in those lines, you should be able to still make it to work unless your job requires you that early, in which, I'm sorry. Ill share some BCS with you any day! I'm in Orlando.

 

Yeah I live in Winter Haven, I still havent made up my mind if I want to travel to Orlando or Tampa early in the morning to try and be one of the lucky few that can get some variants. We are only gonna see the regular here and in Lakeland as far as I know which im sure wont be hard to obtain, fingers crossed. Cheers!
