    Haha, same here. But apparently, if you "ginter" enough, you can get free replacement bottles of Taxman.

    I've been doing sit up's all day for the last two weeks just to strengthen my stomach muscles so I can puke all night.

    New BA looking forward to attending. Thinking I should make a drunk-proof cheat sheet that includes my hotel room # and the list of beers I want to make sure I try. Based on preliminary research, I'm leaning toward:
    5.Reserve Special Black Ale
    6.ONE Oatmeal Stout
    7.TOO Cream Stout
    8.TRES Blueberry Stout
    10.Bourbon Barrel Plead the 5th
    12.Bourbon Monster 29
    14.Scotty Karate Scotch Ale
    Anyone with more experience/familiarity with the available drafts propose additions/subtractions. Was surprised to see Burica's suggestion to skip 1-9 as several from that range are very well reviewed here. Thanks!

    People skip them because they are bottled and easy to find.

    One, too tres and Scotty, although great beers, you can pick up any time in bottles. The others you really can only get at this party. enjoy the rares while you have the chance, and stop at the party store for a 4 pack of scotty on the way home.

    Anyone have an idea what the bottle limits will be for Monster 29, BBL Monster 29, MMMM, Ginger in Your Pants, and Militigan?

    What have the limits been in the past for the non-bbpt5 bottles?

    flippin burica........ i only suggested skipping them because they are relatively available in chicago. When I'm traveling 180 miles Im not wasting my time on black bier, scotty, one, two, tres, four, or even regular plead the fifth. If you live in a dark horse-less area, by all means try all 46. Hell if you find me (good luck, skinny white dude, shitty patchy beard, three floyds winter hat, tan peacoat) I'll graciously split one of the 17 - 46's with ya. As jack black would say "Thats f*ckin teamwork"

    He was saying to skip those because they are fairly widely available. 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10 on your list are distributed.
    Because the taplist is so large, the regular lineup will get overlooked by most. But if you don't want the others, that's just more for us!

    Personally, I plan on playing Pokemon at this event and trying to catch them all. #drunkerthanraymo

    Thanks to all for the advice. Makes perfect sense to stick to the unique offerings. Burica, I'll keep an eye out for you. I'll be wearing a full baseball uniform with black and yellow facepaint. Might be tough to pick me out though. We're goin' in like everybody else: nine guys, no weapons.
