    The limit wasn't enforced at the brewpub apparently. Just repeating what others have said in this thread, I don't know first hand.

    I hope this is a troll post. 110 cases is 1/3 of all the beer produced. The brew pub did not have 110 cases. It was more like 150 bottles according to their Facebook post which is only 9 cases

    Not a troll post, however the information is second hand. I don't remember the pub stating the amount they had but rather that there was "not a limit". Also I stand corrected as to the time frame. They posted it at 5:02PM sold out at 6:23PM.

    I heard 150 bottles too, not 110 cases

    Agreed, it sold out very fast and they definitely didn't have 110 cases. I was the second to last person to get bottles from the Brewpub, I left 2 on the shelf and one of the employees came up behind me and scooped them up.

    I was 10 minutes behind you and still looking. Sucks that they didn't limit it so more people could try it...buying a case or more is crazy, must have been "The Bottle Rack Guy."

    Called a few ABC in Tampa and they apparently are doing pre-sells so they are sold out and they haven't even received the beer!!

    You have a better shot at camping out for a pair of Jordan shoes than a damn beer these days. How sad. I can't believe people sit outside TW at 7am for a beer. I grabbed two at the tasting room with a friend when they came out but I don't think I'd ever sit outside a store waiting just to get a bottle. Makes me sad this is what it has come to.

    So there's a case for sale in Miami at $45 per bottle. WOB Midtown Miami. For take home or bar consumption. Thoughts?

    No stout is worth $45.

    In a bar, that's not too crazy. Most bars are $5 for a can of Jai Alai. You figure a can retail is less than $2, so 2.5 x markup. Life is Like is $25 retail, so $45 in a bar is less than 2x retail.

    Rare aged in Pappy barrels and worth every penny in my opinion.

    Not that it'll be anywhere I can find, but I'll be down there in a week, and I'd gladly pay $45 for a bottle to bring back. Of course I factor in the added cost it would be if I were to actually trade for it etc.....

    Yeah, I bought two. Whatever. They instituted a one bottle limit immediately after my purchase.

    I would contact Brown Distributing they had strict guidelines for it to be sold at $21.99.
