    My compliments to Lost Abbey for a very well-run event this morning. Simple, efficient, and fun. The four sessions was definitely the way to go, as well as separate areas for ticket and bottle pickup.

    100% baby approved

    For all of the shit Lost abbey gets, my hats off for. Running a great event very smooth and they put IT Support guys there who actually had a good sense of humor about the whole fuck up.

    Definitely agree they deserve some props for pulling this release off. I was skeptical beforehand, but the system they employed was very efficient. In fact, getting my bottles at Lost Abbey was easier than getting my VSS bottles at Alesmith.

    if you dont care about drinking anything inside, dont worry about getting there promptly! we walked in and stood in line like idiots and someone was like umm if you want your ddg taster go to the back. where there was no line. fools, all in line for the red barn!!

    bought me a shirt then a track 5 that i shared with some strangers then left. was there for an hour because i decided to get more stuff other than my taste. have fun tomorrow in the heat yall!

    I met someone from Hess' tasting room claiming that lost abbeys POS went down during the 2nd session. Is this true?

    I sent an email with that email to Stone who distributes for lost abbey. Maybe if he stopped getting shipments from stone that would really hurt his business. You can't totally blame the guy for trying to make money, but this guy is a total cocfoster so f him

    It's on his website: http://beverages4lessinc.com/

    What is the actual rule on selling non distributed beers? I saw another store with a bunch of stuff that is not distributed in SD!

    This guy has been hitting all the big California releases lately. On both ends of the state. Very nice. I like his style.

    If that isn't somebody's avatar by the end of the day, something has gone wrong.

    It went down for a few minutes but it was not a major issue. I was at the bar when it happened and it caused a delay for a few minutes.

    Ooooooo, no! L and XL shirts sold out before my friend could get one. I thought California was for fit looking people??? I guess no one is immune to beer bellies.
