Tired Hands (May 2017)

I have noticed that most double milkshakes hit their peak a month or two out.

I had a double extra vanilla last week and it was better than fresh, IMO. Fresh was still great though.

 

Double Vanilla Milkshake for today, along with New Horizons... looked like an IPA from the glance of the label I saw but not positive.

 

Extra Vanilla, not Double Extra Vanilla

 

So what did they say it was on the post announcing the release today?

 

How much did the 4pks of Double Raspberry Milkshake cost?

 

24

 

Damn triple can release


Guess I need to make a pitstop before heading down to NC

 

My mistake, I thought the cans in the video looked like Double Vanilla!

 

double damn. Believers email with 5 bottles

 

Line update: Already past first lot, down to the apartment parking lot on the side road (the name escapes me at the moment). Get ready for a shit show, boys and girls.

 

just checked tier 2 can get these, wondered if we were cut off yet.

 

yeah i wondered the same as well but the system does seem to allow the reserves... maybe they'll leave it open till thbc #2 is ready then turn it off... probably a bit of pita to turn people off then turn them back on when they need to allow the web system to work for the believers bottle... also i'm sure they have enough bottles of all these beers to allow tier 2 to reserve

 

It's not you. I noticed this on many of their 2X shakes, including the 2X Vanilla that I have still in my fridge. They really drink the best 2 weeks plus after release. The 2X Vanillas right now are awesome.

I call that the No Name Lane....I don't think it has a name. Anyway, fully expect a shit show today with the holiday and all.

 

I hope it fucking pours starting at 4:59 PM.

Incidentally, I wonder if part of the impetus for the General Store is to move the release lines to a more palatable (for the town) location? It certainly seems less problematic to have these lines over on Ardmore Avenue as opposed to at Fermentaria.

 

No clue, but as of 45 minutes ago, the chair line was to the outdoors apartment parking lot on that no name street.
