    Any word on how much BCBS is headed this way? Obviously the hoarders will hoard, but will it be available for the common folk who only wants a 4pk and not have to fight, trade, or skip work and stand in line?

    TBH, from what I've heard it's gonna be another "KBS" - It's not gonna be easy this first year it hits our market.

    Just when I think things are starting to slow down, or nothing new is hitting the market. I want to spend some money on my other hobbies, firearms, but I just cannot pass on these beers.

    I am assuming $9.99/4pk. Specs said no limit for FBS on twitter.

    Edit: I just checked, it was actually from Joey's twitter account. All the same really.

    Remember when people laughed because FBS couldn't possibly sell that fast? I'm sure there's plenty more, but damn it's ridiculous.

    It likely sold out so quick because of the Pumpkinator crowd. I'm sure some dude bought a couple 4 packs and then the crowd went buzz over it and just bought all of it too. I wouldn't be surprised if they sold more wine today than any other day of the year also.

    Call it the Pumpkinator Effect. The FBS merely got caught in the vacuum.

    I snagged 3 of the 4 packs before it was gone. Will have one tonight. All for personal consumption. Now to try and find some Pumpkinator.
