2012 FiftyFifty Eclipse Futures

[Voltron]

Thanks for the quick reply Scott. I guess I gotta have one bourbon (EC18) and one Rye (HH). I wonder if I should go 2010 or 2011 on the HH?

Not sure if I am too late, Raffy, but the 2011 HH is better than 2010, and the EC18 would be the first choice for me, then 4 Roses then brandy or grand cru--can't recall the difference atm.

Thanks Al, you're not late yet; the guy I'm trading with still has to take home the bottles from storage.

Thanks for the tip, now leaning towards HH 11 or 4 Roses for the 2nd bottle. EC 18 is already a lock for the first bottle I'm getting.

Just a reminder guys, the futures go up for sale tomorrow at 8 a.m. Pacific/10 a.m. Central/11 a.m. Eastern. I think I'll go for Rebel Yell, Old Fitz, and Bernheim.

I personally still need to message one of the Cali guys for trustee help. I think we have until November or something crazy to get the shipping/pickup address finalized so there's not much rush for that to get sorted out.

[naamanf]

Alarm is set. Hopefully everyone doesn't move out California before Dec.

2 of each ordered....

[Aura]

Passing on the Evan Williams and EC 12 for this year, otherwise in for multiples of everything else.

[jp11801]

Ordered 6 of each except Rebel Yell that was sold out at 1115

[The Monkey]

Do I need to have a shipping address ready to go at this point?

[Aura]

Do I need to have a shipping address ready to go at this point?

No, shouldn't. I marked mine as in-person pickup for now. They will let us change shipping information through the beginning of November.

[Aura]

Bernheim is now also sold out. :/

[The Monkey]

ok, thanks.

6 of everything except the Rebel Yell and the Bernheim.

6 x Aged in Elijah Craig® 12 Year Barrels

2 x Aged in Evan Williams® Single Barrels

6 x Aged in Rittenhouse® Rye Barrels

6 x Aged in Old Fitzgerald® Bourbon Barrels

Thanks to JP for the reminder, but 2 were sold out, then i could have had 5 EW but there was some address issue, so by the time I could lock in there were only 2 left! I can get them from City Beer eventually, but it is good to have futures as the base.

Wow, you guys are making me think I should have bought more. I just got a mere 4 bottles.

1 x Rebel Yell

1 x Elijah Craig

1 x Evan Williams

1 x Rittenhouse Rye

[mikeymad]

start out slow Shelly - crazy amount of money for a handful of beers.. but they are tasty good though...

[tyrion]

4 each of everything but the Rebel Yell, which was sold out. Thanks to raffy for reminding me as I was getting ready to leave for a client meeting. I grabbed my iPad and ordered in the car. I'm thinking of going back for 2 more of the three which are still available..

[The Monkey]

...realizing I spent $500 on beer....

[mikeymad]

I was happy to get away with $255.

[raffy]

...realizing I spent $500 on beer....

Same here. Thank heavens we can pay the remaining balance later this year.

[naamanf]

Also picked up 4 of each with the iPad in the car. Wonder why the Rebel Yell was so popular?

[mikeymad]

I am wondering with the three left (@2:45pm) if they are not as popular or they are releasing more futures for those?

[Absorbine_Sr]

Late to the game but I ordered a couple of EC's and a couple of Rittenhouse.

[grawk]

I got 3 of each of the 4 available when I ordered.

[tyrion]

Ordered 2 more each of the remaining four.

[Aura]

Wonder why the Rebel Yell was so popular?

I think it's because Rebel was the most limited. 6 bottles/person and only available through futures. Lots of traders/eBayers will likely use this limited availability to their advantage once the bottles are ready to go.
