    There’s a lot worth doing in Des Moines, especially beer wise.

    Well that looks like a hell of a time. The chocolate fudge bomb that 2018 assassin was as well as KBBS 18 and 20.

    Des Moines is a sneaky fun city. Not saying take a vacation there, but it’s worth a night or 2 if you’re nearby or traveling through.

    Luas great, so is barntown, 515, and Confluence. I even like going to exile even though their beer is average at best. We also have the Iowa taproom and el bait. Seriously for the size of our city I’m very happy with our beer scene.

    It’s awesome seeing it happen. I graduated from Nebraska 10 years ago so I passed through iowa all the time on my way back home.

    it’s awesome seeing how Iowa has developed. Guess we can thank El Bait and TG, but honestly, Lua is the truth. I’m seriously impressed. So many styles, done so well.

    Seems like the highest across FB and twitter is in the upper 400s. So maybe 500? I havent seen an official count

    My brother in law got a ticket. But I’m confused, is TG basing off the ticket number OR where we are in the physical line in terms of when you can pick your bottles??

    They're not saying how many tickets they sold. I haven't seen anyone say they had a higher number than 500, though. Wife and I are both below 150, so I'm hoping for both kbbs vintages.

    They are filling numbers from the start of the line back. But where you stand in line is based off your ticket number. Getting there early doesn’t help.

    Man I don't know what I'm doing wrong when it sells out in 10 seconds and everyone here is like yea I got one for me, my wife, six cousins, an uncle twice removed, and the garbage man picking up my trash this morning.

    Thanks for the clarification. We definitely won’t be getting that KBBS since we are not in the 1/3. But excited to have this on draft!!

    If you (or anyone reading this) could only get one vintage, which and why?
