    With some many brewers not being able to meet the ask (115 cases), I was worried that we'd end up with a box of Pilsners. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I wanted some variety in the box for this fest.

    Definitely in! And unlike the other 2 fests I could probably power thru this solo (or get 2 to include the buddy) :stuck_out_tongue:

    Solid package, looking forward to it. I would have liked to have a tripe decocted option for discussion. Notch really goes all-in on the lager beers, would have loved a Q&A about what they think their equipment and methods bring to the table.

    I'm definitely in! How many boxes in total this time? I think it was 2000 or 2500 for the first two fests, right? Curious if you allocated more boxes to the lagers based on the success of the first two fests
