    I was just assuming since last time they had a special tapping it kicked within 30 min. Thanks for editing. Just checked untappd and it seems to be on, which hopefully bodes well for tomorrows special tap when I am there. Fingers crossed

    Yeah my other thought was blackberry BCS?? Its the day of FOBAB, so you would think/hope the 2pm tap is something unique?

    I would assume those are each going to happen over the next three days. The bartender told me wheatwine was tomorrow’s and they are doing one per day.
    I just missed the cuvee :slight_frown:
    At least I’ll get some ghost tropic...

    Cheers to the 2 guys from Rhinegeist Italked to who are in for fobab.

    Bummer on the wheatwine tomorrow. I can still make the most of my pre fobab afternoon off (I am working/attending Saturday) After hitting up half acre for a pour of benthic tomorrow maybe instead now I will go check out the new clybourn brewhouse ...they have BCS 2016 base and barleywine on tap at least. Cheers everyone.

    Agreed. BS. I arrived around 5 am after driving 5 hours and my number was like 550. There was no Prop or VR left. They did have 2013 and 2014 Coffee. I took 2 2014 Coffee.

    haha, gentleman. The longtaco is in reference to my '15 Toyota Tacoma Longbed.
    It started back on the tacoma forums and carried on everywhere else.

    Yeah they don’t really define “event” do they? Especially if other stores are getting some variants. In any case, I have to imagine the 10am start in Batavia will give some a chance to double up

    Definitely. I was hoping to get more details because I'm seriously considering sticking to the suburbs, but I don't want to get shut out of Prop or Reserve

    I’m going to have to talk with my local Jewel guy to get info on variant amounts and allotments. They probably don’t know specifics yet, but I’ll hopefully start the dialogue tomorrow. It’s tempting to just hit that up and be done with shopping a lot earlier, even if the allocation isn’t as big as Binny’s.
