Bottle Logic Brewing Thread - Winter 2016/2017

Oh lordy, two? I got rent to pay! Bills! Student loans! Groceries! Not to mention the need to drink the beer I already have!

 

Is Reaction State gonna be Level 3: Uber Rare Bruh?

 

Last year at the line for ground state, the fella in front of me was yapping on and on about how much the beer he was about to buy was selling on the after market. This was in between moments when he would then ask those folks around him if they were maxing out.

Yeeeeah, I'm pretty sure each release just finances the next release.. or some vape gear. I dunno.

 

Agreed and I applaud Bottle Logic for that effort ... hopefully Noble will pay attention and soon follow Bottle Logic and most other breweries with online bottle releases, avoiding those shit-show lines, ARGH

 

most of all, it avoids mule game to some degree as F5ing is not the same ease that it is as saying "Hey homie, come down to home depot so we can grab some day laborers and then wait in line for beer with them to max out allocations like a mofo"

Ground State is 4pp and Reaction State is 2pp. Since GS was 3pp last year that tells me there is a significant bump in production or BL is being generous. Ground State will be an easy cop. Reaction State will obviously be the most sought after plus a lower limit so the best strategy is to buy RS and then go back and buy GS!

 

You're probably right, thanks for the tip!

 

I think Noble likes the hype of the onsite releases - deflects attention from the recent key departures.

 

Don't tell everyone our strategy....that's what I always do when it's multiple items to buy !!!

 

After DSN took multiple hours to sell out I asked if they'd consider bumping the limit and they were considering it. I wouldn't take the 4pp as meaning the batch size is larger than DSN. It is likely similar and will sell out faster

 

Happy that Horadric is going to be back. That beer blew me away.

 

Probably the same malnourished gentleman that flipped out a wad of hundreds and offered my buddy and I $100 a bottle for our FO at the last dinner.

 

That guy is a scumbag, surprised I don't see him at more releases

 

I would have totally sold him my bottles. Easy money.

 

The Eventbrite page says:

"Have your Government Issued ID and form of payment on hand and ready to go."

Haven't seen this done before, but if you actually need to fill out your unique, legal identification information, that seems like a pretty good way stop proxies.

 

I have a friend that will attempt his first crack at getting these bottles he lives a little north of LA, any suggestions for a first timer? I am out of state so my only chance is to help him get bottles and ask for leftovers

 

It's always been this way as far as I can remember.

F5 skills.
Don't see how you're going to help, unless you remind him the day of.

 

FWIW, I've had better luck using the Eventbrite app than the Web site.

 

First Week of Logic beer announced. Collaboration beer with J. Wakefield:
Mxyzptlk - Bourbon Barrel Aged Stout inspired by Cuban coffee and tiramisu and brewed with hundreds of pounds of Dulce de Leche.

Said they will be pouring the "unfinished state" during Week of Logic. I'm definitely excited to try it.
