    Would any crooked stave members want to sell me a bottle when it comes out?

    I doubt anyone would sell you theirs, but you may have luck trading for one.

    I'm just asking because I know reserve members have first dibs on any leftovers.

    If there actually were any leftovers (which sounds unlikely to extremely unlikely, depending on who's prognosticating), I seriously doubt you'll find a reserve society member with "extras" who'd just sell you one (and I assume you're talking at "list" price, not eBay/Craigslist-level moronitude, in which case, who knows?). Like the guy above said, try trading for one once they come out.

    I disagree. I was a reserve member last year and would have gladly accepted payment ahead of time to pick up an extra bottle for someone.

    Yeah I've bought beer from people before who had extras. Maybe they're stingier in other states?

    You would have accepted the list price for an extra bottle of Persica?

    I think its going to be 2x per person with 0 extra this year. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that's what i heard.

    Which is pretty much why I thought it unlikely to find a willing seller this year - I have no idea how it worked last year, were there lots of "extra" bottles floating around the marketplace?

    Not really. I got 2 last year. I think the absolute max was 3, only a few got 3 though. These were 750s last year.

    Persica will be different this year according to Chad as of last Saturday. Forget the details though. Maybe Forgetfu knows.

    I heard that this year the base beer is Brett D'or rather than the WWBO base used last year.

    When are they releasing this one? I know their site says first quarter of 2013. I need to try to find one on these.

    I was told the members party was going to be probably the 1st full weekend of April. So I'm guessing April 6th.
