    Unfortunately ...
    • Jackie O's: is too busy with their expansion, and they need all hands at the brewery.
    • Kuhnhenn: had to back out (again) due to being too busy with their expansion.
    • Lagunitas: had to back out (again) due to not having any specialty beers at their warehouse, and their too busy trying to meet demand with their core offerings.
    • Prairie: doesn't have enough beer for the fest.
    We've got other brewers willing to take their place.

    Oh, and I just added Marshal Zhukov's Imperial Stout - Rum Barrel Aged to the list.

    It's great that these awesome breweries are doing so well that they are expanding and having a hard time keeping their pipelines full...but c'mon WTF...they didn't know they were expanding when they committed to this?

    The rest of the list is shaping up nicely.

    If I wasn't excited enough before, this list is doing it. One question - in one of the other threads, the topic of timed releases was brought up. I've never met anyone who was a fan of these, and Jason had mentioned that this would be a topic of discussion - has anything been decided about this?

    We'll be asking brewers to not due timed releases as it disrupts the fest by creating line and flow issues.

    They were replaced weeks ago by brewers that are already listed.

    So, which breweries are yet to be posted? I find myself trying to remember who else was supposed to be coming and I'm not sure... I think Crooked Stave and Russian River were both in the mix, DFH of course, someone else mentioned Westbrook. This list is insane already, just a little greedy.

    I'm waiting on Funky Buddha, Crooked Stave, Westbrook, and Evil Twin! Very happy to see Due South added, as well, since they were not previously listed before.

    We don't announce what's pouring during the forums, but we'll have the speaker lineup soon and our crew will keep the beers flowing during them. Typically beers are from the floor; brewer's discretion.
