    Sick lineup for this years Hunahpu's day. Curious to know what people have on their must try list. Here's mine:
    Angel’s Share Grand Cru
    Mornin’ Delight Coffee Stout
    Summation
    Black note
    Purple Drank Boysenberry Berlinerweisse
    Heady(cool that it's on draft)
    Cascade's stuff
    and most of CCB's stuff of course

    Now playing devils advocate. Which breweries are you most disappointed in?

    I really thought Lost Abbey would have came a little harder than that. Also It's sad to see couple of local guys that look like they're playing it safe. Wakefield, no fruited sours? Due South and Rapp, come on. You can do better than that. Florida breweries should be representin at this festival. This is the time to knock people's socks off. The majority of us who are going are local, and we're not going for beers we can get year round. I mean they're all bring nice flagships but not the place and time for them. I was hoping to see the BT Snowed in too. That beer was amazing.

    Well with plenty of bottle shares and other beers to drink, It's gonna be phenomenal no doubt.

    Georgia Breweries to check out are Creature Comforts, Burnt Hickory and Wrecking Bar. This tap list is insane, I'm getting really pumped for this one!

    Too many to list. Which is a good thing because even if I miss out on a few here and there, I still won't go home disappointed.

    whatever has the shortest lines, I'm easy (except Kane's Sunday Brunch as @BlumBeer noted, it's that good)

    That tap list is nowhere near complete. They will keep adding to it. Im sure JWB will bring more. They are just now opening and getting the production going. (Just have to make sure he isnt pouring for all his friends that skip the line. Like last year)

    About the moment I start to get cranky about the release of a beer, it gets released. So I'm going to save my negative comments towards snowed for hopefully never. But seriously, anyone heard ANYTHING?

    I'm almost certain it's been on tap multiple times @ Funky Buddha, but Josh @BlumBeer would know for sure. I just want them to bring it to Huna! I will literally drink nothing else all day lol

    I'm more so referring to the bottle release but I know they are being cautious after the muy Bonita issues.

    Based on the last several Huna Days, I don't even plan on making a list of beers I want to try. Just walk around and you'll bump into amazing beer after amazing beer. If you go into it chasing after certain beers, you're setting up for disappointment.

    Can't stress this enough. I learned the hard way. What I do is pick 1 beer that I "must" have and go there first. After that it's just lets go over here or there and get something. I'm hoping I meet some people that want to share pours that was I can try something's I wouldn't other wise and not be blackout drink by the end.

    Add MAZURT to the list from GA. Their Tennessee Whiskey BA RIS won yesterday for specialty beer at the Atlanta Cask Ale tasting .
    The Coconut Vanilla MAZURT will be really good. As well their other beers.

    EVERYTHING! I know I've done it and many others had as well. Don't worry and waste time on making lists of MUST HAVES. Just go to every beer booth/tent you can and get beer. Because it's all amazing. And one more thing. A lot of unheard of beers became well known from Hunahpu's Day.

    These are your must try's. I bet you have a hard time ordering at restaurants. Jk jk.
    I would have a tough time narrowing that insane list down as well.
