    I'm thinking of making the trek for this since it would make me justify spending $450 on this.
    I went to about 3-4 for of the Track releases but did not win any of the raffles. I stumbled across to Lost Abbey after the Stone Vertical Epic Day tasting and after an extremely long day and night of drinking I wake up to an ultimate box set.

    Hoping the the 10 free tasters aren't just of the regular lineup or just red barn. Maybe a tap list will be announced soon?

    so is it free for the people with the backstage pass, a cover cost for the event, or just pay as you go for drinks?

    I think they finally sold out, but they were contacting past Saints & Sinners club members to offer it to them. Kind of scraping the barrel by the end. Given how many people here offered to mule the set for others, I don't think demand was exactly overwhelming.

    I agree, im not sure if they sold them in order but i got box 12-501, and i purchased mine without winning the raffle, i think i bought mine 2 weeks after the deadline to buy, so it was pretty much whoever wanted one and was drunk enough to buy one( me), bought one....

    Damn I would have bought two. Some of the tracks were mind blowing good.

    You don't need a box set, you can still trade $450 for some pretty good beers.

    I think the case is pretty awesome. Not sure how much Roadie cases are though if I just wanted another one to haul beer...

    Lost Abbey and staff, I know you guys tend to paruse BA now and again for posts.
    Any chance we can get the tap list? :-)

    I'm sure it's not the rare beer people are expecting but a good attempt to reward customers for spending $450 On the track set.

    If i wasn't already busy that day I would definitely stop by for 5 free tasters each of Older Vis and FdA. I think it is a very nice gesture as this was nothing that was promised or mentioned ahead of time, just an extra perk.
