Dark Horse 4 Elf Party

I'll be Santa the Pirate, stabbing any scallywag linejumpers with my sword or grabbing them with my hook hand.

Sounds difficult, but I'd probably fap to it.

Drive by fapping?

Rook.

As stated above, there is NO need to get there super early (or camp out or any of the other bullshit that ruined KBS day).

Be smart and be respectful and don't ruin yet another beer party / release.

Hook this guy up. But, make sure he promises to wear something when he goes to bed

I know there was a lot of bitching/bickering/boasting in the threads surrounding KBS day, but I remember the actual event itself being pretty fun (other than the fact that it was balls cold). How was it "ruined"? I'm confuse.

And make sure he brings his own pillows...

haha looks like my ride is expired as well. damnit.

well here i am being a slut again. any chicagoans leaving saturday and have space for one awesome dude that may or may not wear clothes for yah the way over? i can pitch in for gas....

Is that a serious question? All of that madness (fueled by the campers and "hypers" in my opinion) caused them to change to ticketed releases.... and now all that fun you had will never happen again.

If 4 elf turns in to the same kind of shitshow, another fun event is going to also be ruined for the future.

Not to change the subject, but is anyone going to Eccentric Day at Bell's on Friday? I figure I can dress like an elf both days and kill two birds with one stone.

DLD turned into a ticketed event and, IMO, has been just as fun, if not more so, than the previous, unticketed years...

Just sayin'.

Is it poor etiquette to ask someone who doesn't want to buy their full allottment of BBL Plead the 5th to grab a few extras for me?

But it's still one day to attend whereas Founders' releases will be spread out (which is fine by me though -- you can't manage or satisfy the overwhelming demand of craft beer nowadays).

Ah, didn't realize they were doing it like the Bolt Cutter release. My mistake. Carry on.

If I wake up Saturday morning, and I read that there were 300 people in line by some ridiculous hour, I'm going to be legitimately pissed off. Go between 11 & 3 like the brewery says, get your token, & get ready for a good time.

Honestly, I've never seen a "community" that does so much to hurt itself.

Nothing has been confirmed by Founders as to what they are going to do other than it will be ticketed. Since KBS was always more of an event than their other releases, maybe it will be an all day event. Only speculation is around at this point.

Can't wait for 4 Elves with some drive by fapping

I retract my last statement (if it turns out to be untrue). Otherwise, I stand by what I said.

I've never had a bad time or felt like my experience was ruined at a beer release. 2012 KBS day is ticketed event because a 1000+ people showed up not because people lined up early. Before KBS day founders posted they didnt mind if people camped or got in line early. They simply don't want 1000 people to show up if they only have beer for 250. These events are so easy to have fun at if you have a positive mentality

I would post the video of Hold Steady's 'Stay Positive' but the thread would get locked down.

Every time I pass the local highschool.

Giggity.

My wife and I will be there. 60 beers on tap and free food. I will be the one dressed as Shaggy - the wife as Velma. Free Scooby Snacks for everyone.

RUT ROH, RAGGGY!

Why is it less expensive to buy 6x BBPt5 4-packs than a case?

Here is the price and allotment list for the special release bottles, just posted by Dark Horse... Looks like I'm gonna be spending a lot of money!

I think there's a typo on BB Monster bottle size... those are supposed to be 12 oz.

$30 for a 4 pack BB Monster29 in 750s.....score!!!!

Monster 29 (Imperial Barleywine): 37 cases/1 – 4 pack limit – $26 a 4 pack/$7 a bottle
BBL Monster 29 (Imperial Barleywine): 73 cases (750ml bottles)/2-4 pack limit – $30 a 4 pack/ $8 a bottle

Something seems off here? Can't imagine there being 4 packs of 750s. I'm going to assume BBL Monster 29 is in 12oz bottles, correct?

No...just go with it!

Edit -- nevermind, apparently it was a typo.

That list makes me hate my life.
God damn weddings in Orlando during 4Elf.

I have no clue how I won't be broke after this.

wallet already screaming with pain.

It isn't. 4 pks are $22. Six 4 pks would be $132.

Yup, edited my post. They had originally posted the price of a case at $139.

If anybody doesn't have enough money to get all of their Monster and BB Monster, let me know. I'm sure we can work out a deal that'll help us both.

Having said that, I will not have sex with old ladies or deal with beartraps. Those are my two bugaboos.

There's a big issue here. I want everything they're selling.

I had made a wishlist and then realize I could have saved time just copy and pasting the entire allotment into a document with the title, "I'll take anything I can get"
