    Looks like the weather is going to be ideal for high gravity brew. Dress warm, fam.

    Makes sense. 1 in 9 would be a total of 666.666666666 bottles if they had 6000 tickets

    Thats just been the general info I have gotten from multiple people who have been in the past and to anniversery parties, and the number makes sense. I think 1:6 is a little low. I'm sure you could get the actual bottle numbers from all the styles in past years and get a better estimate

    Why would they do red if they have already done it (04)

    Getting close to giving up on tickets, but thought I would try one more time. Anyone with any extras please let me know, maybe we can work something out. Will have my pregnant wife in town, maybe we can offer up rides for tickets.

    Looking for an extra Group B ticket for a beer newbie friend of mine in Chicago. 4 of us are driving out from NYC early Friday AM and would love to include him in our festivities on Saturday!

    Can prob convince him to give up a couple bottles from his allocation in exchange for the ticket if needed. BM if you've got a spare :slight_smile:

    it's red, same as behemoth and on the website. i think there's just going to start repeating colors in a cycle.

    Well,
    If your to believe the eBay listing for DL '12, it's Red. That would make sense to me, due to their recent trend of using the same color wax on multiple releases. They did yellow for DL '11, then Behemoth '11.5, then XV, and BA DLs. Red has been used this year so far, for Behemoth, BA Behemoth, and BA Alpha Clauses.

    I know the trend sees that way, I just dont know why they would copy the 04 so early

    Myself and my group are "planning" on getting there between 5 and 6 to get a good close spot to set up and tailgait the day away. Gonna be bringing alot for trading and sharing! Also bringing a small canopy setup for the back of the vehicle for the damn rain!

    When did prices and bottle allocations get announced last year? I feel like it was earlier than this.

    Also, I think this is my first post on BA, hey dudes.

    How did seating at the XV party work? Will there be covered seating any where?

    They had a big tent at XV, but it took up a fair amount of space, and there were a lot fewer tickets sold, so I'm not sure it would be feasible to do so again this year. Only the FFF guys have any idea what the set up is going to be, and they're generally pretty stingy with information.
