    In line bit before 6am, about 10-15 min from buying, so call it 6 hours on location.

    Line was great and got my Pliney bottles. So glad RR doesn't do anything reasonable.

    Well. I drove by. Saw the line. Got back on the freeway to come to the Giants game.

    I got there at 830 assuming the line would be moving at that point. Waited til about noon and saw that I wasn't even close to halfway n left. 6+ hours in a line that they claimed they were ready for. This isn't their first rodeo wtf!

    I think you need to check your math on how you went from $15 + $.99 + 3.5% to $19...

    I just got in line. It's moving really slow. I called and they told me there might be some left for tomorrow.

    There us about 30 people in line. They are going to stop selling when the line ends and then start again tomorrow. They had a lot left.

    Fair enough.

    However, does anyone realistically believe that Russian River is equipped to do BPT pickups in a logical and orderly fashion? Considering their track record with logistics and planning, it's a safe bet that they'd find some way to make it painfully inefficient, all while saying "who could have ever seen this coming?!?" Unless/until they fundamentally rethink how they do releases, they're pretty much guaranteed to be a shitshow.

    You do realize that they enjoy making people suffer?

    Considering how everyone goes bananas when PTE hits stock at their local liquor and they won't increase production, yes.

    God forbid they sell it to people who didn't have to wait in a line.

    Manager yesterday made it sound like after the line ended they'd just put them in the gift shop.

    This is true. They've been saying if anything is left over next day it indeed does go inside for sale in the pub.
