    I'd love to, and was told about that event as soon as it went on sale...only to have it sell out in 15 minutes. Supposedly they're looking to add another session (the one you linked to is already the second one they will have done) at a later point.

    I'll bring the cardamom.

    Cheapskate. @Quilentro I'll bring fresh civet poop and we can cift through it together, ultimately making BC Coffee great again.

    Regarding lining up in Lincoln Park for Black Friday. This year they are saying no tents and no camping and no open flames? I get the no tents and no open flames, but does anyone have an idea what "no camping" exactly means?

    (sorry if this was discussed already)

    No idea what no camping means if tents are already banned. Maybe they are trying to literally make people show up with a chair ONLY. No more full camp-set ups with coolers, and food, and this that and the other.

    I suspect some people - unless this is clarified - try to show up with some type of non-flame heater/generator if the weather is bad enough.

    Yea, I just didn't know if they were always non-flame before, and how well that might work if you don't have a tent.

    I assumed "no camping" just meant "also don't bring anything we didn't think to list previously; just stand your ass in line and wait for your beer."

    I haven’t had fresh kopi luwak in a while. A Balinese local referred to it as “catpoocino”

    Why would anyone there use a toilet?

    It says no open flames. So I’m bringing a small propane heater down. Worse that happens is that they tell me to turn it off and put it away. It’s not technically an open flame so I should be good.

    With all these variants, supposedly less Prop, and with Binny's stores that aren't LP getting only 6 bottles per store of Resrve...I'm starting to feel like my worse fear is coming to life: More variants, but you'll be lucky to get one of each, and regular will be way harder to come by. I so hope I'm wrong.

    I thought it was 6 Reserves?

    They are only getting 6 of reserve. That was always the most limited.

    It sounded like the "6 bottles per store" referred specifically to the Reserve variant. Chicagoland Binny's other than Lincoln Park will allow 4 bottles of regular per person and 1 bottle of each variant (while they last).

    Sorry for the confusion. Yes, that is what I meant - 6 bottles of reserve. I just forgot to include the second half of the conversation that I was having with myself in the post. Edited.
