    Wait, didn't someone predict the opening bid would double or triple?

    What makes you think it'll be an in person sign up vs. online (like with MD)?

    I'm not saying it will be, I said I hope it is. I have absolutely no pull or inside knowledge.

    Sounds like it will be a mix of lottery as well as a different ticket site. Looks like we're literally buying lottery tickets.

    he should make them $50-$100 a piece, proceeds go to the charity from last night and cost of tickets does not go towards cost of beer. This will help decrease the number of people buying tickets and help out a good cause.

    This is stupid in my opinion, and would cause a bigger flood of their beers on the secondary market than there already are, not to mention that people would factor in that lottery price to any trades.

    It's like saying that professional sports team x should double their ticket prices when the playoffs came around. There are better ways to make something like a beer lottery more exclusive than just price.

    Hey,
    Do you know how the lottery works? The Europeans will be able to participate and do you need to pick the beer up in the brewery or they will ship it?
    Thanks

    It has been a perennial awful stout with one lucky season?

    They might ship it to Spain for you, doesn't hurt to call TG and ask!

    Wouldn't hurt, but I doubt they can legally do that. Wouldn't it violate liquor laws? Otherwise why use a distributor if you could set up a web-shop and ship direct?

    I've had nothing but great experiences with Clark every time we've encountered him.
    He's a super generous person and those that travel and meet him are always taken care of it seems when he's at the taproom or knows someone is coming from a long distance.

    I like Saboe too. He like great music and his beer tastes good.

    To clarify, I like beer. I like Mike and Clark. I like TG beer a lot.

    Prove you actually have friends because if I acted this way with anybody that not only shared these types of beers but actually gave them to me for nothing, I can't imagine anyone would want to hang out with me.
    A little bit of advice - since you don't like stouts as a style, refuse the offer of these beers since you know you won't enjoy them. Or, better yet, pass them along to someone you think might actually appreciate them. Save the drainpours for infected or legitimately bad beer.

    Seriously, all of you need to let it go. So what, someone didn't like a beer... So what, someone else likes the beer... Go play argument bingo on twitter.

    Judging by your avatar an name...I'm guessing you'd get along just fine with Mike. You'd probably get along just fine with me as well. TOOL - 6 times, APC - 1, NIN - 3 times, Puscifer - 1 time.
