Bottle Logic Brewing Thread

hey guys. i managed to secure an allotment for the FO and im coming out from CT with some treehouse goodies as well. how is bottle logic with bottle shares in line and such? dont wanna overpack if theres no point in bringing a bunch to share! also do you think there will even be a crowd on sunday since you can pick your bottles up at any time over the week? thanks in advance!

 

Unfortunately it's a conflict of our licensing to allow bottle shares on our premises. Buzzkill for sure, I know.

Thanks for a smooth, successful sale today all y'all!

 

They frown on the bottle shares now. They looked the other way a couple of times, but this last time they were really firm about not letting people drink in line. The line will be steady all day starting on Saturday the 2nd, but it won't be a complete shit show since they are giving a two week window to pick up bottles. You can always share at Native son ale house or the iron press.

 

Anyone know how the pick up should go? I can't imagine the line for pre-sold tickets should be too long or move too slow?

 

So what's the final bottle count? Thx

We can't have you guys 1992 Topps/Donruss'ing us.

I'm guessing 5000...x $22 = $110,000 in 2 minutes

 

Thanks for making the purchase a painless one, Bottle Logic. It's very much appreciated.

 

Sunday being July 3rd. Yeah, their will be a crowd.

 

I think I'll be drinking all my FO this year. Leche Borracho was amazing. Why trade for inferior bottles?

 

same here.


also, i know a few people who bagged 9-12 FO from convincing non-beer drinking family members to buy. That wouldnt happen with in person sales. just food for thought

 

Who's to say it wouldn't happen with in person sales? Maybe not for the folks you know but it's happened plenty of times before.

 

It does happen with in person sales, possibly even worse because it doesn't come down to sheer luck being able to log in and buy bottles off a website. I joined the Hangar 24 Barrel Roll Club because I love Puga Royale... and the only one I traded was in a trade for BC Rare and Prop. I probably won't be trading for any Bourbon County this year due to their quality control.. I had a bad BCBCS. It's very possible that this year might be the safest year for BCBS because of what happen with last years batches... but I don't want to trade good beer for potentially infected stuff.

 

Adds insult to injury for locals that got shut out. Still preferred to standing in line though.

 

Trade what you want, but IME Bottle Logic stouts seem to always be better than whatever I get in return haha.

 

Standing in line for 5 hours on a 100+ degree day???....sorry, but in no way is that better than an online sale. Don't forget you can get shut out in person too. Parabajava what??

 

You do realize people were literally hiring Home Depot day laborers to go wait in line and buy the "Picture this if you will" Halloween bottle. Day fucking laborers.

This is a far better system and even if folks secure mules, the fact that you not only have to convince said mules to give their ID# as well as use their own credit card with their name on it. Those are very strong preventative measures to make it that you really have to use some effort to get extra bottles.

So take all your thoughtful food and realize that this was probably the best way they could have done it. Wes was in Kentucky a few weeks back sourcing more barrels, So, you know, next year they'll ramp up production even more as I'm sure 2017's F.O. batch will begin brewing in the next few weeks.

 

amazingly put Earlycsquid. Well thought out!

 

Not hyperbolic at all, good to see you're as rational as ever.

 

Exactly, I was finally able to Land VR...now i can do a Side by Side

 

They already started brewing 2017's batch going by BL's Snapchat account.

 

That was Friday...There was actually a giant mess in the back while they were cleaning the mash from the tanks. They seem to do that quite often. As soon as the big stout is released the next year goes into the tank. They did the same thing with Ground State.
