    I'll definitely be on the lookout for session GBS this year if it hits retail. The barleywine sounds intriguing, and would probably be the only reason I'd seek the set - everything else has been done before it looks like (the AB is a blend... still AB to me)

    Same boat as you with seeking out the set. Nothing really new other than those two you mentioned. Only the BW intrigues me. And the session GBS does not get me excited either. I got the set last year so have had just about everything everything and when I went to West Creek for pickup the first weekend it was availble to do so I recall they had everything, If not just about everything, still available on tap to try. Since I'm an hour away I'll make a day of it to try whatever they have on tap but won't plan to go down multiple weekends just to snag them. And with moving to the two stubby 12oz bottles for the 6 BA vs. the 6 individual 750s last year you get 8oz less for the same price as last year. Not that big of a deal but I guess the rationale to charge the same for less beer is you can drink one now for yourself and save the other for later if you wanted as opposed to either having to finish the bottle yourself or be sure you have a couple people to share with.

    Since the BW and AB Blend is a set exclusive I doubt it will be available outside the taprooms on draft and if it does get out it will be very limited.

    A few sound interesting. Would love to try the BW. Not a fan of these being in cans/small bottles versus the old 750s. I guess I'm old school.
