T-25 Question

I'm not hyping -- the line will be around the block at opening, and a lot of those people will probably be unable to get bottles. Volumes should be better than Churchill's Finest Hour releases, but they're going to go really fast. Showing up an hour early probably won't work.

 

No one knows. If it's ever actually announced it'll probably be on RR's facebook/newsletter, so just watch those. And if people are saying in private, I doubt it'll make it to BA. So either everyone will know or basically no one will.

My guess is that they will, but really, no one knows.

 

You've posted in this thread 14 times already and most of the posts are about how hard the bottles will be to purchase. Building hysteria like that only makes these things worse.

 

Public Enemy says T25 will be the bestest, rarest, most hyped beer ever seen. I even saw somewhat disheveled looking people camping out on Haight St., for what I presume is the T25 release!

 

JAXSON, let us build some hype so we can lure all Ann out there to the West Coast Not many people have unlimited JCN for every ISO thread like you

I'm thinking between T-25 and Ann, which gets more 5? I've given T-25 a 5 already.

T-25 is difficult to get for sure. Although I live 1 hour from Toronado, I doubt that I can get any.

 

I really need to stop planning to be out of town when things like this happen. Maybe I'll show up in time for the dregs of what's on tap Sunday night.

 

Truth be told, my "beer cellar" is like 25 bottles, most of which I'm probably drinking. I just bring out big stuff when I really want something. I have no idea which of those two will get more 5's as I've never had either, but I'm sure both are great.

 

I was at RR today and was told bottles will go on sale on Saturday the11th unless you have tickets to the pre-release party.

 

I plan to leave Sac pretty early to just hang out for a couple hours, I have to work that night. I've never been to Toronado, so what's a better reason than the T-25 release?

 

Pre-release party at RR?

 

No, sounded like it was at Toronado or close to Toronado anyway.

 

I assume that's a reference to Tuesday's dinner.

 

I'd much rather get a bottle at RR instead of fighting the chaos at T... hopefully something official is announced.

 

when will bottles be on sale at RR? If they are selling it there at all

Sounds like it'll be a FfaC-style release. No bottles Thursday until the Toronado people get there, but Friday, Saturday, and Sunday will have bottles at opening. ~25 cases per day, 2 bottles per person. So they're releasing about 1200 bottles.

 

That's in addition to whatever gets made available at Toronado, though. I'll be getting some bottles tonight at the pre-release dinner, and then they're on sale again at the start of the pub anniversary party on Saturday night. $25 a bottle, which is an insanely good value for what it is...

 

Yes. 375s would robbery at this price. Considering that Cable Car has always been $40 or more, this is a bargain.

 

1200 or 600 ? 750ml so is that only 6 a case? I was thinking of going first thing Friday but if it is only 150 bottles (75 people ) I am not it is worth the drive.

 

Should still be 12 per case, I have to assume.
