Do you even blog baw? I'm sure they were excited to hear from some random dude before 9:00 on Monday, who started out by saying he had talked to one of their biggest retail customers and wasn't satisfied with the answer he was given.

I need to figure how to get on the inside loop like you mavens. As it currently stands, I only get special info from this board, Tap Hunter and following a brewery on Facebook. I'm like 7th tier.

Don't call your local distributor. It's frowned upon.

If the common folk know too much, how will the mavens hoard their kibbis?

You don't deserve access to whalez, bro. Stop calling the distributor. I don't care if they are more than happy to divulge the information, you are NOT worthy.

You really think they want to hear from you at Mockler? They are getting a certain amount of product, then allocating it to certain retailers with set quantities. One retailer may get it a few hours earlier than another one, but only because the delivery guy is only able to hit one account at a time. From the sound of it you are a douche and probably don't support any of the local retailers any other time besides for special releases.

Keep in mind that OP started this thread because he was driving around at 0830, looking for KBS..You think that was so that he could let everyone know where to get it..?

Is it too far fetched for you to think that he MIGHT have started this thread anyway if he would have actually obtained some KBS this morning? I know it's not the way of the "maven" to alert the general public to the availability (or lack thereof) of .rar beers, but good god man.... Such a cut throat mentality on this board.

Like I told him, I'm not mad at him. But I have been lied to about similar things (not by calandros), so I called Mockler to see if I could get info. And they answered all my questions. I don't see what the big deal was.

My original intent was to save others time, nothing else. I don't feel that I was disrespectful to cdro.

The great KBS whale hunt of 2015.

Of course the BR Mavens are in a parking lot somewhere doing a KBS vertical right now.

nothing wrong with calling Mockler. They want to move as much product as possible and make money. I'm sure they hate seeing beer just sitting on shelves.
