Westy 12 release: mid December
Sorry guys, sometimes I get behind with the registrations and they get filtered. If anyone is lurking who registered and isn't activated drop me a quick line at cass@cecktor.com with your username and I'll fix it up.
I did try to get some of the recent ones activated as I suspected many folks wanted to chat Westy

To fill demand I thought I'd offer an alternative to westy. My pack consists of 8 home brewed "trappist" dubbel's and two tulip glasses from dollarama. These are bottled in real trappist bottles (a $15 value on ebay when empty) and with legendary gold caps. All this for $49.95.
My line up starts at 12:12:12am, sales start at 12:12:12pm. Demand will exceed supply. Bring a tent, it is cold outside.

A child develops a learning disability every time you post a picture of beer no one gives a shit about.

Sounds kind of silly, but how do they know how many people to expect? Based on number of calls, I suppose, but it could easily a lot less or a lot more. There's all kinds of factors that people can't resist.distr0 wrote:guelph stone rd location will be getting 30 packs friday morning, and are expecting over 200 people to show up for it

yeah. to be honest, the guy who said that didn't sound like he knew for sure. he was probably sick of the questions and calls by that pointDroogy wrote:So a delay from tues to Friday? Makes no sense.distr0 wrote:swung by stone rd in guelph after work today. guy there said it was in the back already and should be on shelves overnight tonight
If they are doing a staggered release, good luck to the last store on the list!

Went to Bayview Village around 8:20AM. They handed out tickets for about 54 cases at around 8AM and had to turn some people away as the line up was bigger than that at that time.atomeyes wrote:for those interested:
there was a line at Bayview over an hr ago. not sure how big.
betting there's a line at the Laird location.
stay home and drink instead.
Out of luck for me.
Will try Richmond Hill tomorrow much earlier or just skip the whole thing.

At least ten bricks were rolled into the back for people who weren't there at 9 to claim their ticket case. Took some pressing, but the Manager admitted they would hold them indefinitely for those with tickets.

So in Edmonton it sits on the shelf and gathers dust but in Toronto it's gone in 4 mins and dbags are paying construction workers and homeless people to buy them additional packs. I wish we could be as cool as you Edmonton.Went to Bayview Village around 8:20AM. They handed out tickets for about 54 cases at around 8AM and had to turn some people away as the line up was bigger than that at that time.
Out of luck for me.
