    So, I've scrolled through a few pages of posts and haven't seen any information regarding the upcoming 2nd anniversary at Funky Buddha May 30th.

    I know in January there was a bottle share in the parking lot prior to the MBCP release, but I haven't found any posts about bottle sharing before, during or after this event. I did find the following though:

    Q: Can I bring bottles to share?

    A: Outside bottles or bottle sharing will not be permitted on premises. Beer sold on site cannot leave the festival grounds. Drinking any alcohol in the adjacent parking lots, neighborhoods, or in front of neighboring businesses will not be permitted. We reserve the right to remove anyone from our premises violating this policy, and BSO will be patrolling the surrounding area - it's not worth it!

    Does anyone have plans to have a bottle share at a hotel before or after the event?

    Okay, so my question wasn't answered. Anyone else?

    Any bottle shares going on that weekend?

    The Westin FTL has a special hotel rate for FB festival goers. So odds are there will be out of towners staying there. Out of towners who may be interested in a bottle share Friday or Saturday night. I haven't heard of any bottle shares there or anywhere else, but if you are really are interested in a bottle share I'd recommend taking the lead and setting up a spreadsheet for people who are interested so they can list what beers they'll bring. A lot of times there are people who want to participate in a bottle share but very few who want to do the work required to set it up. This has been done many times in the South Atlantic forum in the past for MBCP Day and Hunahpu Day so you could probably borrow the google spreadsheet used for those events. Here is the one used for MBCP this past January:

    Just don't forget that little detail of clearing it with the Westin or whatever hotel you are staying at. Hopefully you can get some more locals to chime in on suggestions for you.

    I wish they'd release an anniversary beer.

    We do bottleshares in that area, but honestly, you'd be better off hitting the Buddha Lounge for the pre-anny event and then the Buddha brewery the next day for their event.

    And they're not kidding around about the bottleshare thing at the brewery and alerting BSO. I think that's probably a thing of the past at the events. But there's so much beer to go around, you'll hardly miss anything.
