Hangar 24 Pugafest

Both times I bought multiple bottles at Hangar I was told that I am "allotted" 1 bottle per transaction. Very precisely and clearly. If you decide to buy one per day, that's totally cool with me, it's same as you would buy one Veritas 016 or one BCBS on Black Friday and don't buy another BCBS till Black Friday 2017. Feel free to do so...but don't tell me that I'm lacking decency, because I decided to buy what in fact I was allotted by Hangar 24, on their very own terms.

 

It seems tacky to you, because if you would do that at another brewery that doesn't allow that, that would be awkward and against the rules of the brewery. The problem is with your approach, since you're applying the same set of rules to all the beer releases...and again, that's fine with me, but it doesn't make me want to call you names or insult you or criticize your moral character. As far as your last question, I don't see how that would matter during this discussion, although I was never hiding that, feel free to scroll the page a little higher (7th post).

 

does anyone know when this release is happening or where's the info on bpt this time around?

 

Just to pose a question since I've never been to a Hangar 24 release but, wouldn't it be slightly preferable to do a bottle per person per transaction limit as opposed to a 2-4 per person bottle limit as far as spreading the beer around? This way if you show up at the beginning of the release or close to it, everybody in front of you only gets one bottle as opposed to maxing out their limits and making it more likely that you don't even come away with one? That would technically make the beer available to more people. Those people just have to show up timely.

 

People... always people...

 

I hear you, but sounds like you've never driven to Redlands before..... When I drive that far, in the middle of nowhere, then I need MULTIPLES! lol.

 

Lots of negative vibes about Puga release. I've never attended 'cuz I've been traveling home from the Eclipse release party, (timing conflict). I was thinking about coming home from Eclipse a day earlier to make the Puga release. Really hope H24 makes some adjustments to address those who take advantage of releases. BPT for limited bottles would be a good thing.

 

Anyone know how 2015 will shake out? (did I already miss it?)

 

it's going to be 12/5, no real details yet so hopefully soon.

 

Members can buy tickets tomorrow

 

Still waiting for word about extra bottles...

 

Still waiting on... any word.

the story of hangar 24 marketing department.

 

It's been communicated out to club members. Dec. 5th.

 

Do they allow non-ticket people to come? (Designated driver)?

 

Don't see anything about designated driver tickets. It says they are closing the tasting room so I'm guessing only ticketed people allowed in.

 

I hope that changes. Don't want to pay $35 for my wife (DD)

 

She can wait outside.

 

I just called them and asked the question. The person in charge of the event is supposed to give me a call back in a couple of hours. I will report back what they say.
