Howdy Folks,
It’s the time of the year for Russian River Pliny the Younger! We have 3 releases scheduled: Wednesday February 11th at 6:00 pm, Sunday February 15th at 1pm & Saturday February 21st at 1pm. Doors will open at our usual time of 11am. We will be issuing Tickets that allow you to purchase a glass of Pliny the Younger as people arrive. There will be 2 colors of tickets, if you get the first color, relax, sit down, start a tab, get something to eat & a warm-up beer or two, you’re getting a Younger, the second color, well, Maybe. When it comes time to tap Younger, we’ll sell it to all of the folks with the first color, if you are seated & have a tab with a server, you can stay seated because the server will bring it to you. When we finish serving all the folks with the first color we will do a last call for that color ticket then line up the second color tickets in order (they have numbers written on the back 1-20) & start serving those folks. In order to get a Pliny the Younger you need to be here before we do last call for that color of
tickets (usually around 25-30 minutes after we start pouring it) or you lose your chance & giving it to the next persons in line. I know it might sound a bit complex, but it’s really simple & has made our Pliny the Younger release days a lot easier, more civilized & less stressful for everyone involved.
Wednesday the 11th we will shut the doors at 4pm for a few minutes, start a line outside, and Beth will begin making sure everyone who needs/wants a ticket gets one. Remember, we will limit the seats at the bar to make sure we have room for everyone to line up and buy their Younger.
Saturday and Sunday releases will have tickets handed out as doors open. Remember, you can come hang out on our patio and wait for the doors to open but you cannot have alcoholic beverages with you. Wait until we open, then you can buy a beer and wait.
