Churchill's Anny 2014

That's my plan.

 

Every year I go in the afternoon and have a great time.

No beer is worth standing in line - to me.

 

Is anyone looking to book rooms in San Marcos for the event? I manage a nearby hotel and can probably set up a good rate and help w/ a bottle share event. BM me with needed dates and I'll look into it for you.

 

Pfft, they'll be back this year.

 

I will be there providing darknessday style entertainment.

 

Pants pooping and everything in between ?

 

definitely going this year. I was bummed to miss last year's, but after reading all of the horror stories I'm not so sad I missed out

 

So, presumably, it will be on 3/1 this year?

 

Those people sound like LA Douchebags that were upset that the woke up to drive down to only find that line.

 

I would drive the 1 1/2 hr and wait in line for this beer. But the line cutters and lack of handling on Churchill's part will keep me from going. I also cancelled going when I found out I'd get in trouble for tasing line cutters.

 

Yes. I may have a small group!
I'll send youa BM
Thanks for the info!

 

The line cutting sucked, but the time spent in line bottle sharing and kicking it with beer geeks was great. Just pace yourself kids, you don't want to blow your nut in line and not enjoy the event itself like this guy.

 

My time >>> time spent watching people cut the line for beer

 

Looks like they will be trying to eliminate cutting this year.

Churchill's Renaissance Anniversary party will be on Saturday, March 1st. Doors open at 11am! We will be doing a double numbered wristbanding system for the line for bottle sales. At this point I plan on selling bottles to go for the first 200 people (2 bottle limit). Cash only! The bottles will most likely be $30 a piece. This should help alleviate cutting issues. We will have a security person overnight to pass out wristbands. The double system makes it so you can't pick up a wristband, leave and try and come back and jump the line. It will also prevent late joiners from getting bottles before the people behind them in line. I'm still thinking about doing a limited amount of online sales, but you'd have to pick it up that week and can't double dip with waiting in line.

 

that last line makes me hopeful for a BPT release. Overnight security guard? Jesus

 

you people talking about bottle sharing in line realize thats illegal, and rude to the owner and staff of churchills to potentially put their license at risk, right?

 

I agree but to a certain extent they are asking for it by still wanting people to line up and create buzz about the event. If they came up with a better way of selling bottles to go, they wouldn't have to worry about it.

 

You always drive the speed limit, right?

 

Ah, come on.. You know it's not the same thing.

 

Or one could exercise a certain amount of personal responsibility or something. Waiting in line for a long time does not entitle you to an illegal bottle share.
