Well that was quick. Pre-sale started at 12:00 and it was gone by 12:03. I scored a case but entered my credit card info wrong. Went back to try again and the bottles were all gone. I checked and it was still in my cart thankfully so I was able to purchase but damn. Only Crowlers left. Insane.


Their frick buddies at Spindletap showed them the way. Same exact shite with all of their releases

This just frustrates me. I think they are still salty about not being able to host release parties on site and this is their way of saying frick-it. Or, they think their shite dont stink. I'm thinking the ladder.

Certainly their prerogative, but shite like this alienates some loyal customers in the local market. Parish obviously doesn’t care. So be it.

I imagine the thought process is that those people will drive over to the brewery

Noon release on a freaking wednesday, for alot of people that is tough to do. With a 10 case limit, how is someone who just wants a 4-pack supposed to get any? Drive in from out of town, stand in line for hours on release day, and hope anyone in front of you isn't buying 10 cases. Dont really care if it sounds like I'm bitching, but the way they do business ribs me the wrong way.

The ten case limit needs to be addressed. If they set a three or four case limit they would still sell out and they would allow for a lot more people to who want the product to get it. I know they can do what they want but that doesn't mean they should.

I tend to agree... 3 or 4 cases is still a lot of beer and it would've still sold out in 10-15 minutes instead of 2. I wonder what Parish's profit margin is on a case of DDH ghost. Did I hear right they sold 500 cases?

Each 4 pack is about $4 more than a regular 4 pack of ghost. I'm not sure what their margins are. Maybe some brewers here can tell us how much it costs to ddh a beer.

I think that's right, 500. And they have 300 or 350 cases reserved for day of release.

If I'm not mistaken it's a three case limit day of release.

I think they had a three case limit for the DDH Bloom presale and I don’t think it ever sold out online (or if it did, it took weeks), so I don’t blame them for raising it.

In a couple years Andrew will sellout to a company like InBev and there will be plenty of DDH Ghost to go around.

Will be nice to have a company that cares about the customer running Parish.

I said five or so years ago that this would happen within ten years..I actually thought it would happen to TinRoof first, but they seem to be the new Parish
