    SR-71 isn't the only beer out there that's highly-sought-after.

    I believe it's a half barrel which would be almost 400 5 ounce pours so it should be around for a couple hours

    I'd rather drink black gold on Friday (which according to this price structure should go for $20 for a 1 ounce pour) but something tells me central waters won't pull a toppling Goliath

    Just curious, are any FFG beers going to be available or is that list the final taplist?

    Haven't decided. It's a possibility.

    How much is a pour if you don't want the glass?

    I believe they take a buck off if you take the glass and say "I must break you" in a Russian accent, then smash it on your forehead.

    Sure, but I don't think that was the point. Discussion is whether or not folks would pay $20 for a sample of SR-71. Odds are, yeah, because it's sought after.

    Brickhouse BBQ at some point during CW's event. Don't think tap times have been given.

    I understand I have friends that work at breweries and bars that hook me up over other people sometimes. Some people get mad but honestly life's about what and who you know and in that instance I was at a disadvantage besides that its just beer how upset should I really be getting if I miss out?

    Dude I will totally go to that! lol glad you told me I might not have noticed it otherwise with all the other stuff going on. Hopfully there will be some Goldilocks revenge for me to try by the time I make it out to Madison.

    If you guys are gonna be at new glarus on Saturday morning I have a bunch of sours I'm bringing to share otherwise if its allowed I could bring something special with me to your pre party, not that there's going to be a short supply of special beers already. :grinning:

    With everything going on, I don't know if I'll make it out to NG.

    And no, we can't have people opening bottles at the pre-party. Cheers, and see you there!

    Anyone think its strange that its 6 days from the great taste and there isn't a full great taste eve lineup posted yet? I thought it was posted weeks in advance last year
