Official SA Bishop's Barrel thread

Good form!

Dammit, I just posted something positive...

 

How dare you! Delete, delete, delete...

 

I feared people might chant, "Ban, ban, ban!"

lol

On Topic:
How is the line going over at Hay Merchant? The pic looked pretty bonkers. I hope the wait isn't too long. I'm sure by the 50th or so person it'd be a long wait.

 

The line moved very fast, actually. They had everything set up nicely. Waiting a day was probably a good idea.

 

The line went really really quick, 3 bottle limit, $6 a bottle, EVERYONE left happy - They set the example for others to follow.

LITTLE BIGS is selling it TO GO - $10.95 a bottle, Limit 3.

Stags Head is selling but not to go (of course) - $10.50 a bottle.

 

Six bucks a bottle is a very fair price for something like this... ten bucks a bottle.... not so much... but hey.. it's a free market system!

I am going to try and get some on Thursday.

 

Did it sell out?

Wow @ Little Bigs! I guess you can't blame them for trying.

And I expected Stags Head to be expensive. They are consistently the most expensive place I know of to buy craft beer. I love the place, but sheesh! lol

 

Nah after paying $6 for it...I'm not paying $10 or more for it anymore. I'm done chasing to go bottles...I got my personal 3 so I'm happy. Anything after this will be at spots where you can't cart it off.

LOL @ the fact that those places have 0 lines or hype, people want to go only I guess? lol

 

If I didn't have my son yesterday and today, I'd totally have had one at a bar. Unfortunately that wasn't an option. Luckily Petrol is kid friendly enough that he could play with a few other kids while we waited in line.

That would have failed at Hay Merchant. lol

 

HomeField will be selling it tomorrow. Capital Beverage dropped the ball again.

 

Anywhere in San Antonio yet?

 

Just stopped by Hay Merchant and they were sold out.

 

I haven't heard anything outside of Houston and a handful of places in Austin. Nothing in SA, Dallas or NOLA yet.

 

Drink on site, or walk out, Walt? And do you know what the cost will be?

 

Shocking, truly.

 

I assume on-site, because Homefield has a full liquor license.

 

Homefield Grill, the one in Round Rock?

 

Yeah, I saw Walt's avatar, and thought he was posting about Flix getting it. Gonna have to be on site at Home Field. Hmmm.

 

Yeah, it will be on premise only.

I thought about picking it up at Flix but I fear I'd just sit on it. Plus, my understanding, is that they WANTED it to be on premise only.

I could sell it to go @ Flix as we have a BG permit.

 

I know how much the cases cost, but I don't think my bar manager priced it out yet. My guess is that it will be in the $8-$10 range, based on case cost.
