    Ummm. You know it's a college town right? A college town that has a pretty popular Christmas program.

    Not sure why anyone who received a confirmation wouldn’t buy it instantly.

    Man, I'm never going to get a chance to try that goddamn beer. That's three years in a row I've missed out. I really should have gone down to their ten year anniversary.

    Have all the emails gone out?

    Did they have it at their 10th anniversary?

    Yes they had it at the anniversary 2 1/6 kegs. Got to try it twice on Friday. Could have gotten more if I didn’t have to drive back. The second day just couldn’t stay all day with the kids. I don’t think all emails are out.

    Do we know if they’re doing more tomorrow? The website said they were but it also said emails were going out at noon and we’d get an email either way.

    Based on the fact that they haven't said anything about emails being sent out, I'm guessing more are coming. I'd bet sometime around noon tomorrow they'll say something about check your spam and whatnot.

    [sarcasm]Shocked I didn't win[/sarcasm], I'm 0-fer life in beer lotteries. I really despise lotteries. Let's people "enter and see what happens". If people had to decide and make plans to buy at a certain time, there is less competition.

    The winners were emailed yesterday at 9 am and had 24 hours to purchase their ticket. (Based on what someone said above)

    Therefore the release at noon today will be the leftover tickets not purchased yesterday by the 9 am emails. I could be wrong but thats my guess

    Five others and I entered the lottery. No emails at all. I guess we might have another shot today.

    I know about 30 people who registered and never got one thing yesterday. I'm going to guess that the second round of emails is going to be going out today still. I thought it was supposed to be 11am, as I have received nothing yet, but we will see.

    Looks like mine arrived on Wednesday, I assume everything was intact?

    Same no emails either way. For MD they said they would send an email either way, but people that didn’t get in never got one that I know

    Which is a far cry from a post meant to clarify the situation for everyone, to say nothing of not saying that all emails had gone out.

    I get they can easily sell all the KBBS they can make, but why they cant get their act together on things like this is rather odd.
    Conflicting messages on when emails come out, not sending a message that you did not win, like they said they would.....
    People who entered probably do buy beers other than whales and this kind of situation may make people pass on their beers turding up the shelves at liquor stores.

    I'm still a fan, but just wish they would do what they said they would regarding lotteries/releases. Too much to ask?

    They should just do it like in 2014. Release at the brewery, 1 bottle limit, and say nothing online or do so only when it's for sale. You want it? Come and get it. RIGHT NOW.

    That's all well and good for people close enough to get there quickly. Kinda screws a giant portion of the country that would/will travel for releases though.

    All due respect but I'm questioning if you're really, truly a fan. Clark overpromising and undelivering on how things are going to work is about as reliable as a contract brewed version of PseudoSue.
