    Not like you wanted this lottery :wink:

    So far the results in this thread are (yes/no):
    nyynnnnnnnnnynyyynn (6 yes, 13 no), so in a medium sample size, we have just under 1/3 success.
    We were vying for 150 samples, so 450-500 people signed up?

    It's a 30 L keg, which is ~996oz, and the one-fidy 4 oz samples account for ~600 oz assume no filling loss.
    Perhaps a few samples were unallocated? I would totally get it if JK staff/volunteers get samples.

    A lot of really cool people work at JK. I would hope they reserve a certain amount for those folks.

    I got a yes, but the fiancee did not. Looks like I'll be getting a 2 oz. sample :slight_smile:.

    I'm so excited that Jeff was able to get a keg of Cantillon in Texas and I'm looking forward to the celebratory bottle share.

    True. Glassware whales don't oxidize over the course of several years.

    I won a sample but I'm going to Freetail the 21st and couldn't swing back to back Saturdays. I'm going to e-mail them and hopefully one of the BA's who didn't get picked can have my sample.

    Actually a lot of the raw material of glass is already oxidized (SiO2)!

    P.S. If you don't go and don't have a glass mule, I'll get you one and make sure it gets to Freetail (with me or an ATX BA).

    Is there a limit on buying glassware? I don't want 12, but maybe a few to give to some beer friends who aren't in TX.

    Why would someone bring a loon glass to a big tasting?!?!? If it didn't get broken, it probably would have gotten stolen anyway. I've had glasses much less desirable walk away from a big tasting.
