    going to barrelworks for the first time in a few weeks...have a couple questions that I couldn't find answers to on my own:

    - is there limits on purchasing bottles to go?
    - what is the pricing on these bottles?
    - is the tour worth it?

    Yes
    Depends on the bottle, but usually $14 - 20

    You are right, Barrelworks does not.

    Great....thanks. So it's just the tasting room and bottles to go? Also, are the limits a bottle or two....or greater?

    The bottle limits really depend on the bottles you're shooting for.

    Specifically curious about the anniversary ales....guessing those are fairly reasonable to come by since they have several vintages available? cant imagine that they're overpriced....

    They are. FW's vintage pricing strategy can best be described as parabolic.

    Need another adjective that's much more than over priced.

    Anniversary is nearly $20 when released. Prior vintages are multiples of release price.

    Anniversary 15 was $90/limit 1, 16 was $45/no limit, 17 was $35/only one left

    Ha ha, yeah... don't go chasing older vintages from Firestone unless you got deep pockets.

    Great info everybody, thanks. I'll probably still spend a ridiculous amount of money there but atleast I know that now going in.
