    I know you like to keep things close to the vest, but any chance parabola will be involved or some earlier vintages of the anniversary beers?

    I love the Silence of the Vav. That's when you know it'll be good.

    Agreed should be a pretty epic event with not a whole lot of advertisement to boot. This seems like another my wallet is going to hate me type of function.
