Other Half Brewery Thread (December 2015)

Have you seen the movie "The Internship". They invent an app that prevents drunk texts. Wonder if anyone has built something like that for real? Maybe a breathalyzer hooked up to computer that doesnt allow you to login if you blow a .10 !

 

They just increased profits on those sales by 2.75%.

 

They stopped cash, unfortunately right when I got out of line so had to go to the back of the line along with some others. Oh well, line is moving pretty quick now.

 

...looks like I can stop concocting a scheme to get out of work early today.

 

"Suparillo is sold out. 150 cases of Foreverever left!"

 

Suparillo gone so says twitter.

 

Wait, so they opened a cash line to expedite the sales process, and then abruptly decided to eliminate the cash-only line?

 

i wonder how many people towards the back of the line just decided to run to an ATM and got the 4x 4-pack limit white showing up at 11:30 or something...

really dont understand how all breweries dont just speak to each other about ways to run a release. will there be a cash only line? cool! fucking announce it ahead of time.

 

Wow. I won't be able to leave work for a while yet and I bet at this rate Forever Ever will be gone if I get there this afternoon. Guess I'll wait for next release!

 

Don't worry, I'm sure they saved extras for those of us at work...!

 

a-fuckin-men. What's with most breweries being absolute clowns when it comes to running releases? Who woulda thought that communication in 2015 would be so difficult.

 

lol

 

Just got my 2 four packs before they sold out. Upset that the limits were lowered but I only wanted 3 four packs of Suparillo anyway. Ended up getting 2 and 1 forever ever

 

This is rediculous. Sold out in 2 hours on a "work day". Im starting to think I can quit my job and become a mule.

 

Definitely looks like I'll be avoiding this now. Wasnt gonna drive there for 2 4-packs anyway. Thats like a 3 hour event.

Sounds like this was a poorly handled release.

 

I fully thought I would be ok leaving work at noon and getting some. Oh well.

 

Since this release is a bust for me, any word on what's up for the next release (assuming 1/16)? Hopefully AGE (will settle for Hop Showers) and a non-session.

 

Wow didn't realize they were that close to selling out - they dropped the limit like 2 people in front of me.

 

relax guys...im sure we can pick up this stuff all over the NY area latter today
just check beermenus in an hour or two

 

I will never understand what would be so difficult about having someone handout tickets to the people waiting on line. You get one ticket per 4-pack that you plan to purchase. You get to the front of the line and change your mind that you wanted more? Tough shit. Your friends haven't arrived yet and want to cut in line with you? Too bad. You run out of tickets? Tell the rest of the people on line not to waste their time standing there.
