    Ok, thanks. I hadn't been able to find anything useful (on mobile, anyway), but you inspired me and after a little digging I found it! The only site I was aware of was this, which contains precisely zero information:

    https://cigarcitybrewing.com/hunahpus-day-2016/

    Turns out you have to click on the little Hunahpu badge hiding in the top-right corner, and that takes you to a different site, hunahpusday.com (duh), which ALSO appears to be missing the desired info until you notice the little dropdown menu button in the upper-left corner, and there it is! Here's the final link, if anyone else is confused:

    http://hunahpusday.com/breweries/?orderby=post_date&order=DESC

    That really could've been clearer. I work with computers in my career, and I was disappointed in myself for not figuring this out right away. Anyway, the list is looking great so far! I can't believe how long it is already.

    Posted this on page 13 in response to essentially the same question:
    There also are some super-cheap value hotels along Dale Mabry pretty close to CCB.

    The list isn't finalized yet - CCB updates it when other breweries confirm their attendance.

    Which, by the way, is a complete rip-off since I need only a fraction of that.

    I typically go with Madeiras. They had a great one from 1864 that was really good. I would have to find the name as it has been a while. I know they have an 1830 Madeira that I plan on getting next time I'm there. It's hit or miss as I have had a Madeira from the 1890s that had not oxidized well.

    Their Scotch selection is very big. Stick to what you like and splurge on something special. My best recommendation would be to pull up their drink menu before you go and have an idea of what you want. The drink menu is huge and overwhelming when they hand it to you. Instead of taking the time to find something unique, you will just go to something you are comfortable with(which isn't necessarily bad, this is just a good time try something unique). Also, have back up choices as their cellar is very large and some of the older special stuff could have run out.

    CCB has started to updates some of their beers, in addition to what will probably become a huge list of treatments, they have Ghost of Hunahpu, which last time was pretty spicey, I really hope they add Hunahpoopoo, which was damn tasty. After all it's Hunahpu day, so as many Huna variants as possible would be great.

    OK, so maybe I'm a little TOO excited THIS early...

    but I was checking the brewery list to notice what breweries are IN that weren't last year and was excited for quite a few already:
    de Garde
    Jester King
    Pipeworks
    Other Half
    Fremont, etc, etc.

    And then I checked the beer list assuming I'd still be disappointed with the lack of actual beers listed...looks like CCB has been playing around with Huna!

    There are going to be three times as many breweries at Huna this year than any other year. There is more room for them now.
    I just like that it still only about 3k people. more beer for me

    First timer here, so I apologize if this is out of place.

    Any idea if they will release Huna variant bottles at Huna day? If so, is it a lottery to see who is able to purchase them? any info would be appreciated.

    Just Huna, from what I understand. No variants to be released that day.

    Ah, ok. I was hoping to score some variants - thank you.

    No bottles, however there will be plenty of treatments.
    The last time I was at the brewery a very credible sources said there are NO barrels filled with Huna in the place
