    We are officially a month out and should start seeing breweries/beers pop up shortly. Anyone been hearing anything? Found anything on intrawebs?

    I'm hoping for some BA Abraxas from Perennial. Anybody know if Pipeworks is going this year?

    I talked to the pipeworks rep at the Capones tasting last week and he confirmed that they would be there.

    Revolution's Bean Gene, too, probably.

    And Pipeworks posted a poll via facebook a while back asking about what to bring. The options were (and this list is from most votes to least, going down the list):
    Barrel Aged Cherry Abduction
    Oaked Blood of the Unicorn
    Barrel Aged Sour Smoked Porter
    Oaked Berliner Weisse Peach
    Barrel Aged Hyper Dog
    Oaked Berliner Weisse Raspberry
    Barrel Aged Abduction
    Oaked Berliner Weisse Blueberry
    Barrel Aged Smoked Oat Jones Dog
    Beer

    BA abraxas would blow my mind. I'm in the minority but I think abraxas > hunahpu. Man we're gettin antsy though, it's a month to like one event. I guess DLD threads start in January so I digress.
