    Yeah, I mean...parking at 5 Points isn't exactly plentiful...this might be a mess...

    I don't think it's going to be that bad. Cans will be all over town so I imagine lots of people will try to avoid the potential madness.

    Either way, I'm excited by the prospect of a Koko Buni breakfast.

    Anyone know if this has hit Atlanta yet or if it's going to at all?

    The release party isn't until this coming Saturday, so I really doubt the cans are out yet.

    No cans in Atl yet. I bet we get a limited amount, most will prob. meet the demand in Athens first.

    Incorrect. Kegs are all over, cans following end of week or next.

    Kegs are all over Atlanta and even at Just Tap'd in Macon, but Hop City Krog Street did tweet yesterday that they are now not expecting any Koko Buni cans in Atlanta until 2016. Not sure if that applies to the whole Atlanta market or just that store / location.

    Does anyone know for how long Koko Buni cans will be available? By that I mean, should I grab as much as I can, as soon as it hits shelves, or will I be able to still find some on the shelves as weeks go by, through the end of December and through January? I buy most of my beer in Athens, (at 5pts for the matter) where Creature Comforts is most available compared to Atlanta. So I figured I might have a better chance.

    Please do not buy "as much as you can". Leave some for the rest of us. I buy most of my beer at five points and I am hoping I can get one six pack when it hits shelves. If I was in the store and saw you buying everything they had, I think I'd have to walk out and slash your tires.

    I'm only kidding about the tire slashing... I think :slight_smile:

    It's coming in 4 packs, not 6. And for those who were wondering, CC twitter says cans won't hit Atlanta until first week of Jan.

    I just saw that tweet earlier today saying it will be released in 4 packs. I just figured six, due to Tropicalia and Athena. Guess I'll have to try and get two 4 packs if I can. As of right now, it looks like I'll be at 5 Points for the release Saturday morning. Anyone else planning on being there?

    I just picked up two 4 packs at abc package. They still had about 3 cases left. Limit of three 4 packs per person.
