Cigar City Hunahpu's Day

Post by spinrsx »

I was at Cigar City a few weeks ago and they were busy gearing up for Hunahpu's Day. I just started to do some math on the bottle sales alone.. The plan for bottle sales is:

- Hunahpu's Imperial Stout is $20 per bottle.
- There is a 3 bottle limit per person for the first 4,000 people to receive wristbands.
- There is a 2 bottle limit per person for the next 1,000 people to receive wristbands.

so 14000 bottles at $20 each = $280,000 in 1 day... pretty crazy!

Not bad for one day's sales. Too bad it isn't within driving distance...

That is a pretty good haul - its delicious beer though - would gladly shell out $60 for 3 bottles.

Probably more if they sell other bottles as well?
