    Another great share, and smaller too, keeping with the JK Friday evening spirit. More names and faces to add to the hopper of regulars. And it's always fun to share stories with Joel, even if he's not on the webz.
    It was great driving my favorite JK worker home, I've never seen someone fall asleep so fast in a car.

    @WTKeene If you get there by noon you should be fine. It'll probably last til 12:20. 12:30 is a gamble. From my guesses, 160 of 200 were sold and there were 220 people on JK and Stanley property. I didn't get there til 5:30, so I'm going off what I was told about 5 PM time, and then what I observed til closing.

    Hahaha!

    Actually when I saw your message I was home already. I can probably wrestle one from my buddy or trade him something for it.

    I just checked how many bottles of La Vie en Rose batch 1 we have left. It looked like about 125. Batch 2 is probably three or four weeks out and is closer to 2,000 bottles (750ml). Batch 1 was an experiment we liked and decided to release, so it's much smaller. Cheers.

    I wish I was there for some batch 1 :slight_frown:, oh well family comes first as they say!

    Any idea when Batch 2 makes it out Jeff?

    Ive never been to JK, but have been interested in going. Where do you Houston people stay when you go out to JK, or is a day trip doable and fun?

    Sorry guys, I was not fortunate to be hooked on phonics as you guys were lol. I might have had a few too many as it is!

    I'm excited though! I'm just curious to see how fast these sold out again!

    I live in Waco not Houston (Waco is a bit closer) and have made several day trips. I just leave early enough to get there when they open and Sat & Sun is best because of the earlier hours. Unless you want to drink as much as possible, it's definitely doable. I just pace myself and drink as much water as beer.

    Live in Katy and have made the trip often. Certainly doable, especially if you hit up other places as well.

    I love the description on the Ambree label, along with the label itself. Funny stuff. @jesterkingbeer
