    Good thing each store is only gonna get 2 of those, it would suck to fill a shelf with a couple cases!

    I know there's been a lot of time and inflation but relative to a $45 bomber last go around that seems a bit nuts. That box tho!

    GOOSE ISLAND RARE DAY
    IT'S NOT EVERYDAY YOU GET TO RELEASE A BEER AS SPECIAL AS RARE BOURBON COUNTY BRAND STOUT.

    The 2015 edition has been aging in 35-year-old Heaven Hill barrels for two years. We want to celebrate the release of Rare Bourbon County with our biggest fans! So, on Friday, November 13, 2015 we will be selling the first bottles of Rare at the Goose Island Fulton Street Brewery.

    But, the fun doesn't stop there! After purchasing your beer, join us at the Goose Island Barrel House to taste Rare and the entire 2015 Bourbon County line up, jam to Chicago's own Black Oil Brothers and learn more about Bourbon County Stout during our "Barrel to Bottle" presentation featuring Goose Island Brewmaster Jared Jankoski and Heaven Hill Master Distiller Denny Potter. Our Barrel Warehouse will be opened up so you can do a self guided tour to check out all the 2016 barrels that are aging, eat food from local food trucks and talk to the production team that put together this years "Grit & Grain" Bourbon County Video series.

    How do you get a ticket to this special event? Well, we know how crazy online tickets sales for awesome beer events go...so we are going with a lottery system.

    Beginning at 12:00pm CST on Friday, October 2 and running through 11:59pm CST Friday, October 9 visit www.gooseisland.com/rareday to enter the lottery. You can enter the lottery once daily.

    On Tuesday, October 13 at 12:00pm CST winners will be selected at random to purchase up to two (2) tickets for the Rare Bourbon County bottle release. Each ticket will allow the guest the option to purchase up to 3 bottles of Rare Bourbon County Brand Stout and an invite to our Barrel House celebration.

    TICKET LOTTERY OPENS OCTOBER 2ND, 2015 AT 12PM CST.

    One can enter once daily?! Interesting. It would be a fun trip, I admit. Will not be getting any hopes up, however.

    Probably cheaper to attend the event and purchase than buying on secondary or trading the required $200 worth of beer that it will take to snag one of these.

    When I get one of my Rares, I'll do that trade in a heartbeat....assuming there'll be two MDs in your box.

    From the FAQ:

    Is this the only time 2015 Rare bourbon county stout will be available to purchase?

    No. It will also be available in very limited quantities in select cities this Black Friday, November 27th.

    Wonder if selecting the time-slot preference affects how they draw and "lotterize" the submissions.
