    I also am one of the unlucky souls that couldn't make it down and just like a few others have stated, would love to trade or just pay outright including shipping costs. Cheers and I look forward to maybe seeing some pictures!

    I'm sitting in the middle of it all and it's packed. The line was down the street wrapped around the home depot parking lot before opening. I'd estimate the crowd is at least triple last year's. I'm doubtful there'll be any left for purchase at 7:30.

    Got in line at 0800. We were about 150 back from the front.
    Same place as last year, but showing up at 1030.
    There was a sick tasting at CCB the night before and some discrete bottle sharing in line.
    There was probably 3-4 times as many people this year, but they opened up the whole parking area which worked well.
    Lines for all beers moved fairly quick, but the good stuff blew just as fast.
    Tons of bottle sharing inside.

    Just got back and I thought it went very smooth. Got there around 9:30 and was maybe 300-400th in line. Gates opened at 11:00AM promptly and I was inside by 11:15. Lines for the 3FFF beers were long and the Dark Lord tapped at 1:00PM and was gone by 1:15PM. Highlight of the day for me was the Rum BA Hunaphu, man that is one kickass beer.

    Came down from Philadelphia for Spring Training and ended up at the release today. Very smooth all the way around. Drank about 75% of the beers I wanted to try and came away with a few bottles of Hunahpu between me and the people came with. Will be back next year for the event if not for the awesome guest beers

    So did there end up being extras? Or just the 2 per person?

    Amazing event, other than someone stealing my half case of hunahpu.

    Got some nice aged Miller High Life in the man shed that I will offer up, the champagne of beers! Ha. I'm pretty sure that we don't get something here in Central Virginia that can rival Hunaphu. I do have some Darkness and Black Butte and a few others, we can start an off line conversation if you are interested, cheers.

    Yep... I think they said that to the worker watching the door before the general sale and his jaw dropped

    Imagine getting there at 5am and getting nothing #KBSday

    If anyone has any extra Pu's I'd be happy to trade for one (or two) for my graduation tasting in May. I have a trade thread up AtM for KH that would list some things I'm willing to trade along with my "gots"

    Cheers!
