    Don't know exactly when but Session 2 is sold out; Session 1 still has tickets available.

    My mistake; I didn't see they flipped Session 1 down to the bottom after it sold out.

    Session 1 sold out; Session 2 still available as of this writing.

    Chris Quinn posted a BCBS Macaroon tasting video on The Beer Temple social media and is a big fan of it (an A+!) fwiw.

    Am a fan of the “reduced” lineup (perhaps simple is a better word) and looks to be more back to basics. I was thinking of skipping but may well get the full release.

    Cost per ml is similar to last year?

    Yes, based on the current 2024 pre-order bundles (~130 for the 5 bottles) out there in Chicagoland looks to be the same SRP tiers as last year. @ChicagoJ has a nice pricing post from last year's thread so the following looks pretty accurate for this year's SRP.

    2024
    13.99
    Bourbon County Brand Original Stout
    23.99 Bourbon County Brand Vanilla Rye Stout
    23.99 Bourbon County Brand Macaroon Stout
    29.99 Bourbon County Brand Proprietor's Barleywine
    39.99 Bourbon County Brand Bardstown Cask Finish Stout
    Total 130.95

    Had a sliver of hope that the prices would be different. How stupid of me.

    OG will be $14.99 here, and the two variants will be $25.99 - $29.99 depending on the store. Cast Finish wull be $39.99 - $49.99.

    The place down the street from me still has Eagle Rare for $49.99 lol. I thought they would have dropped it down like they did with the barleywine in 2022. After about 8 months they cut the price in half to $34.99 and I bought 4

    From LAX yea.

    Not always,but the tickets exist .


    Just saw some to Chicago for 80 dollars so you might see me soon

    Exit: just saw some for 205 flat so MAYBE not 178, but that Empanada will be WORTH IT .

    It went from a smaller lineup to so many different bottles now.

    Smart. Basically giving more opportunities for the die hards to give GI their money while the indifferent continue to not care.
