    When does the brewery list get announced? I also tried looking for the 2017 list and haven't had much luck, anyone know where to find?

    We will be lucky to get it by Feb... The website is updated for 18 so the list wont be there. If you download the Huna day app all the breweries are still there last time I checked.

    They just started posting the breweries that have confirmed on FB. Just the south region so far. So looks like it may be sooner than Feb.

    Love The Veil & Answer Brewpub being on the list. Surprised that Scofflaw made the cut; Shocked Bearded Iris didn't.

    I’d go just for this one preliminary region.

    I don’t care too much what breweries are going to be there. Last year my grandpa and I tried the ones we really wanted, then explored and found some new favorites. I’m looking forward to a similar strategy, and I think grandpa is too.

    How easy is it to find 12 shippers that weekend? Do they sell out pretty quickly?

    Not easy at all. As everyone from out of town is looking for them. It may behoove you to send one to your hotel. You can have UHaul delivery them.

    Personally if you are flying, I hate using 12 bottle shippers, as they are a pain to get through the airport.

    CCB is selling a wine tote that works well for what you want

    And there are plenty of good wheeled options on Amazon, that way you can bring beers down with you (checked bag) and bring your Huna's home with you without worries or concern of shipping, but that's just me.

    CCB only has/had a few of those. They are not cheap and I am not even sure they have them anymore. It is not on the web store. I want to say they original posted they had 5 of them.

    It’s called The Wine Check and costs about $85 delivered to your door - all you have to do is buy a 12 bottle shipper to go inside of it. I have two and I take them with me every time I travel. Extremely easy to carry through the airport (it has wheels and a strap to pull it with), I’ve never lost a bottle in transit and it’s the most affordable option for transporting beer. If you travel with it a few times, it will pay for itself.

    Right, CCB was selling them at one time, with the insert. The issue is finding the styro to go on the inside in Tamps during TBBW.

    Interesting, St Bernardus--have they ever come before? I haven't paid too much attention to the international group before.

    I'd love if Cantillon would show up with a bunch of small batch shit like they do at Shelton Festivals. It would do wonders for all the other lines :wink:

    Don't think St Bernardus has been there before. Last year there was a Russian brewery there that had an awesome Baltic Porter aged in Chivas Regal barrels w coffee & vanilla.
