    Any word if VIP will include bottles?

    Nothing definitive yet, but we're considering a higher priced ticket option that would include bottles.

    Given that ACL is a major, Austin festival that probably has a decent overlap between festival attendees and people who support our brewery, we're going to hold off on making tickets available until Monday, 10/7 at noon. However, we'll be posting full details about the fest (ticket pricing, what the ticket includes, beer lists, food options, etc.) this Friday. While we do expect the event to sell out, we expect it to at least take a few days to do so, if not longer.

    While I could have found a way to make the purchase happen on Friday, I'm much happier with it being postponed until Monday. Thanks for considering us festival goers, Jeff.

    I also like the idea of having the F&S Fest info available to people a few days before tickets go on sale that way people have time to think over their options.

    I am curious as well as to what the tickets will include if (from what it sounds) all the beers will be bought by glass and not included samples like the previous one.

    If I had a dime for every time I heard that statement, I'd be a rich man...:wink:

    For completely selfish timing reasons, I would appreciate the opportunity to purchase any bottles for sale without the connection to Funk and Sour Fest event tickets and pickup on the same day.

    Although it's a bit of a formality to state at this point, a BA bottle share is welcome at our Funk n' Sour Fest. As always, please avoid overconsumption and help us keep our setting laid-back, family friendly, etc.

    Cheers

    Honestly did not expect this. It sounds like there will be too many good house beer to want to sample twenty 7-15% BA stouts/sours before :slight_smile:
    Keep letting people know if a bottle share is OK each time, I don't think anyone should feel entitled to one at every event/Saturday.

    What do you think this is?

    damn it...

    this is really not helping me figure out the logistics of how I'm going to drive to and from Houston on the same day... Too bad this could not be on a saturday so I could head back to Austin for the evening afterwards...

    maybe this is a dumb question - but is it possible there may be a ticket option that includes a couple of bottles - i.e. maybe 1 of each of the different kinds? That way I can have a pour, or maybe 2, and responsibly drive back to Houston in a timely fashion?

    I'm willing to commit to 5 hours of driving, but the last 1/2 does need to be responsibly, and with some reward for my efforts... ?

    A fantastic option that should be looked at my JK. JK AR release was fantastic, no stress, show up when you can over two weekends, this release was done properly (hint hint FT).

    Monday at noon I will be in front of the screen.
