    A buddy of mine just called. They said BBA Sarsaparilla will still be there. Not sure if limit has changed, though.

    I would assume it's not a misprint since it's a complete change to what was there before, which you posted earlier in this thread. I was looking forward to trying the 666, and I probably won't even be able to get the 2012 Plead since there are only 106 4-packs (versus the 75 there were going to be for the 666). It seems strange to change the list when they had such specific numbers posted before.

    See the post above by @RyanMcFly1985 it was probably a misprint in the sense that they added 2012 BBPt5 but accidentally removed Sarsaparilla.

    They have in prior years. I brought one that you attach to a kerosene tank and used it in 2011 and 2012

    Here's the bad news. There will be no BBA Sarsaparilla 666 Stout bottles available for sale this year. The beer just wasn't up to our par in quality. The good news is that we will have some vintage BBA 2012 PT5. Hope we didn't burst your bubbles.

    The Taproom will open at 7AM on Saturday morning to start your day off right with a full complement of beers and BREAKFAST menu-Biscuits and gravy, biscuits and gravy pizza, biscuits and gravy pizza with bacon, omelette pizza, etc.

    We'll see all you Elves on Saturday!!!

    So what are you guys doing with all this beer not good enough to sell? Throw it away!? I have an idea! Offer complimentary glasses to all the crazies waiting in line overnight.

    I did a 3 year vertical (11-13) at a tasting a few months back. The 2012 had something going on with it. 2011 and 2013 were still awesome.

    Just make sure to reserve the gold wax for PVW offerings.

    I was hoping they would have '12 and '13 at the party. A 12/13/14/ vertical on 12/13/14!

    I'm assuming you're talking about BBPt5? If so, they are having '13 on tap

    Yep. On tap. I'm not going to try and get there super early to get it in bottles.

    Really bummed about the 666 Sasp. I mean, I like bbpt5 too, but the 666 sasp is what I was really after. Kudos to DH for not releasing a subpar beer though.

    Agreed. Although, I had it last December and not recently. It tasted wayyyyy off.

    I will not be able to attend this year. I was #7 last year in the OSU tent up front. :sunglasses: At least there will be no, "why is this infected?" or "why does this taste like nail polish?" or "why does this taste like popcorn?" this year. Thank god.

    Side note, Where the Wild Things is tasting beautifully right now!

    Wild things was the best thing next to Plead last year. Can't wait to drink a ton of that on Saturday!
