    I thought same thing was a possibility and also wondered what to do with $28,000 of beer "if" it was infected

    Was "Mike" really a customer or just a crisis actor brought in to save the brand? :grin:

    He's just doing it for the reward points on his credit card.

    Funny, I was just thinking that everything about this release seems like one elaborate episode of Punk’d. This just seems too over the top (especially when considering the beer).

    Yep. My first thought really was "Did they pay someone to do this?"

    I mean. Suppose he did buy for a whole FB group. Assume 1/2 the people want 1 case, and the other half want 1/2 case. Is he really buying for 200ish people?

    Just bizarre to me.

    I think instead of saying No Distribution, they should have said Free Distribution.

    The reply on that tweet was that he wasn't doing it for a profit....even if you are muling for hundreds of people, I would expect there would need to be some sort of gain here?

    Seeing some of the FT with No Rules in the trading forum sure is interesting as well. The whole situation is so strange, I struggle with words.

    This is the sort of behavior that results from not having any rules.

    Perrin really has the whole "distribution without a distubtor" thing figured out. #inmikewetrust

    How can this be good for either the brewery or the consumer? They basically screwed themselves in terms of people visiting throughout that coming weeks to get a bottle and then buying other stuff while there. In addition, they ended up with a bad situation in terms of who can get a bottle. They cut distro, but then let one guy basically become their distro.

    Wonder what % of the total bottles that represented...

    This is a wonderful thread, but I don't see anything topping the flophouse thread
