    I searched Pacific threads and didn't find anything.
    The next Rip Current bottle release:
    http://bbvanillastorm.bpt.me/
    The last 2 BA releases have been spectacular and Vanilla Storm sitting in Heaven Hill Barrels for 2 years sounds like I'll be maxing out.
    I don't know why this place doesn't get more love.

    Yep, looking forward to this. I kind of like that they remain under the radar since it makes it easy to pick up bottles at this point.

    I've had one of their BA beers on tap, it was pretty good. But not enough to buy some bottles.

    I don't see this selling out, based on the previous bottles being available months later after the release.

    I've had the non ba vanilla storm , and it was very good.

    Looking to check it out the next time I visit SD.

    I loved RipCurrent the one time I visited in Carlsbad. Unfortunately, I live in NorCal. Hope to get down this fall.

    Rip Current is located in my lovely home town of San Marcos bra. Carlsbad is located just west of it

    Thanks for posting this! Never tried them before but I had to drive down to SD anyway for MT and Alesmith pick ups so this sweetens the pot.

    My apologies. I wasn't 100% certain when I posted, but didn't have the time to fact check.

    If you didn't get bottles of BA Black Lagoon then you really missed out. Top tier BA Wee Heavy.

    BA Vanilla Storm is going live shortly. On the fence about this one given the $25 price tag but two years in barrels for the base beer piques my interest. Isn't that longer than most BA beers?

    People are asking on FB and Twitter and no one has chimed in saying they got bottles. Pretty sure it's simply configured incorrectly.

    Edit: Confirmed on another forum by a brewery employee that it's not sold out.

    Yeah I was going to say. I was watching the whole time and never got the chance to buy anything. Ha.

    Per their Twitter, the sale was configured incorrectly and will be live at Noon.

    Sorry for the screw up, the sale is live now! Anyone who snuck an order in while the time was being corrected will still get their bottles. No orders will be cancelled.

    Wow this one actually sold out. Also does anyone know the actual pick up date? BPT write up says 10/12 but the ticket says 10/2.
