    Ok, I'm going to be a nice guy and offer some guidance since I can already tell that a few of you will be nowhere close...

    Limits for Tree House cans are usually in the 4pp - 12pp range per style, per day. This week they've already got Eureka left over from the weekend (250 cases available, 12pp for Thursday - will probably drop to 4pp for Friday if there's any left) and they almost always package on Wednesday or Thursday - sometimes both days. Thursdays are usually their busiest since they tend to have multiple releases and the highest limits. If anything makes it through til Friday, it's probably going to drop to 2-4pp per style although sometimes they stick with 6-8pp.

    Quick math shows that if I leave with 24 cans and a 2L growler, that's only 452 oz. I might actually get that much (or more) but it's completely dependent on what they package this week, how much they package this week, and what Thursday night's limits are. I could just as easily walk out with 12 cans and no growler. Feel free to adjust your guesses accordingly (@Dave_Treat @mbmiche @Corriecrafts ).

    That was actually a ridiculously inexplicable typo where at one point I had named both breweries and both states but somehow dorked up editing bigtime.

    I will forward this on if I win (I was actually there for the first time ever a couple of weeks ago) -- but I'll guess a total of 192 ounces on the assumption that you get 12 cans and the growler line is too long to wait.

    Well hell, you didn't have to do this:

    [​IMG]

    Clown Shoes Blaecorn Unidragon - One of my favorite beer styles
    14th Star Maple Breakfast Stout - Sounds right up my alley, should have been a want
    NEBCO Imperial Stout Trooper - Big time want, don't see a date on the bottle, is this a '12?

    Thanks Dave!

    Enjoy!

    The IST is a '12, and was wax-dipped sometime in '13 for aging. I didn't see it on your ratings here or Untapp'd so I figured you should try some. Hopefully 3-years on the shelf has done it good.

    I'm hoping the same for that beer, I have a bottle with a couple years on it too (though I can't say how many without looking). I'm saving it to drink when I first watch Star Wars with my oldest son.

    Been lucky enough to try a few Tree House brews so i'll pass on this one. By the way - did you ever get those WA/NW brews from your friend or do you need a lil' box with some of that goodness?

    Generous of you to pass!

    As for the WA brews, thanks for the offer but my friend is already on it. I expect he'll be sending along some Dark Star this winter, and we'll see how he fares with the variants. He's also bugging me to visit, but the timing is never right since we're both so busy.
