Assassin/KBBS day 2017...

hey boys whatd i miss!? been busy the last week or so and just catching u now

 

Hasn't been too much news lately.
Share spreadsheets are up for Country Inn on Thursday night. Hoping we get word about additional bottles available at the taproom before the day and really hoping someone taps Assassin on Thursday as that would be my best shot at trying it.

 

Any news on Courtyard & Cellar's plan for their keg? Tapping time or anything?

 

Checking this daily: https://www.facebook.com/pg/dcourtyard/events/?ref=page_internal
but nothing so far...

 

Anyone looking for a place to stay in Decorah still, I'm cancelling my room today. Really nice accommodation for 2-4 people. Also nice for a small share.

DM me if you want - I can let you know when the cancellation goes through and the room becomes available.

 

Ok, Sorry for the delay! Hope this all makes some sense..

1) We are doing our bottle share from 9am--->6pm on Friday, 1/13. This will run in the same manner as the past MD shares if you made it to one of those! If not, cliff notes: Cover charge at the door you get a glass and drink tickets. We'll have some fun guest taps. But it's going to be a bit of a marathon so if you'd rather use your tickets towards merch, to-go beer or copious amounts of Old Dutch popcorn you can do that as well. The bottle share cover charge we'll be handling at the door. I just set up a FB event here:

2) Assassin tickets we'll be selling online. They go on sale starting in a half hour! Here's the link:
http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/2755233
Tickets are good for a flight that I'm guessing will be: one 3.5oz pour of Assassin, one 5oz pour of a barrel aged beer from Prairie, and a 6.5oz pour of a TG DIPA. (We don't have kegs on premise yet so I'm remiss to give exact details.)
Your Assassin ticket is good anytime starting at 6pm Thursday. Hey Thursday night folks! cc @Spewlander.
Assassin tickets do not = entrance into the bottle share, though. Everyone swinging down Friday during 9am-6pm will have to do the regular cover deal.

Hope this all makes some sense!

Basically:
-If you're just interested in the bottle share..just show up on Friday!

-If you're interested in both the flight of beers and the bottle share grab a ticket for the flight @ http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/2755233

-If you're only interested in the flight of beers and not interested in the bottle share, you can still grab a ticket for the flight @ http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/2755233. But just be aware that you'll want to come down between 6pm-10pm on Thursday or after 6pm on Friday.

Sorry for the delay! I'll post a few more details and the final tap list - hopefully by the end of the week. Definitely by next Tuesday. Cheers!

 

Dumb to get double charged for the bottle share....no thanks

 

They are effectively 2 separate events. Not so many Assassin events so i got it!

 

Sold out.

 

At least until 8:15.

 

It would be the same if you bought a sample ticket for another Assassin event around town, so I don't really see a problem with it. Two separate events.

 

Just updated this, thanks for creating it

 

So 1,000 winners but probably 5,000 showing up, fantastic.

 

Yeah, this worries me too. Hopefully the weather is nice or TG gets some heated tents or something. At MD day TG was tough to navigate once it was open to the public and I think that was only 500 winners. I just hope I can find someplace decent to share a couple bottles after picking up at the late time.

 

A 30 minute heads up for a ticketed flight!? Bah!

 

Got a ticket to the Assassin Event...I am unclear about the bottle share portion, it never says anything on their FB page about actually bringing bottles, just that they have special taps and things like that....

 

They did this event for MD. You are welcome to bring bottles to share.

 

I'm expecting Decorah to be pretty crazy Thursday - Saturday next week, considering a few thousand people are coming into town. Restaurants, bars, etc are going to be jam packed. The forecast, for now, looks to be cooperating.

 

Out of curiosity, how many tickets did you guys sell? Our group had 5 people trying to each purchase one and we didn't have any issues.

 

Looking forward C&C flight and the bottle share.
