To each his own. I loved Huna the two times I have tried it. Never been lucky enough to try and BA versions though.liamt07 wrote:I thought the same thing.

It's hard to say without looking at the books, but I'm guessing that the time and storage required are such that their margins aren't good enough to justify it. Like making 5 bucks a bottle is good and all, but if it takes you 2 years to get that 5 bucks vs 2 weeks to get 50 cents from a pale ale...saints_gambit wrote:wouldn't they make a great deal more money by making more of it and issuing it year round? why don't they just do that?
I mean, I realize Craft Beer is not all about money, but it is partially about money.
Anyone going to the ultimate beer gong show this year? On sale today.

Regular Hunahpu's isn't barrel aged or anything, so they could turn it around fairly quickly. Not quite pale ale fast, but a couple of months rather than years.squeaky wrote:It's hard to say without looking at the books, but I'm guessing that the time and storage required are such that their margins aren't good enough to justify it.

I imagine its more to keep up the massive hype it has.

I had two windows going one in queue from abour 12:44 and one refreshed from 12:58 on. The 12:44 window went through.Ale's What Cures Ya wrote:You guys refresh or just trust that queue nonsense?
Anyone know of any ways around the ticket policy? Don't really feel like meeting up with some random and getting Dahmered.
No idea, first time going. They're sending tickets via FEDEX so I dont think duplicating would be easy... and I read they wont change name on purchased tickets.
