    I couldn't make it last year and heard nothing but awesome things about the event. Really looking forward to this (and CCBW) next weekend! Pipeworks and Dryhop were the only two lists I could find so far for 2015 guest taps. For those that went last year, how many other breweries were also pouring?

    Well, I didn't think this would sell out based on last years event and I missed out on tickets. If anyone has any xtras or can't go please let me know. Looking for anywhere from 1-3 tickets. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

    My memory of the event is a little blurry but I think there were about 6-10 guest breweries. I remember Pipeworks, Dryhop,
    Begyle, Half Acre, Flesk, Temperance.

    Goose Island needs to have something like this around the country. CA would love to be able to try Proprietors as well!

    Also, I've read that last year it was easy to get in even if you didn't have tickets. Is there any reason to believe that I may be able to show up without a ticket? I would be more than happy to make the $25 donation, of course!

    Unfortunately not. The reason this happened last year was because they failed to get a last minute permit for the site and were not legally allowed to charge for alcohol. Thus, it became a free event with unlimited pours.

    Really? Goose is already plenty generous in spreading the love that is bourbon county.

    Unless, I perhaps missed the Chicago events where alpine and Russian river would hold tap takeovers and such so that Chicagoans could drink said brands in the city .....

    Actually , I don't think I did miss anything.... Where is Russian river and alpines migration?

    (Yall can keep your other CA breweries just to yourselves , "zomg rare barrel!?!!?! Zomg sculpin BRO!!" Yea we got revolution and GI, respectfully, to fill those voids, though obviously sculpin is distrod to Illinois but point being we can live without your ca breweries but it would be nice to have them be nice to Chicago like how GI is nice to all of Cali and other places around the country)

    What? Tickets were available for about a month. It was posted here on BA a long time ago and the GI and CCBW sites. There was plenty of time and ways to find out about it.
