    This is EXACTLY my experience! Out of almost all of the BA beers I prefer KBS fresh. Definitely seems like it's always in an awkward transitional stage in the 6-12 month range. Not too good. I actually prefer it right around the 2 year mark if not consumed fresh. But fresh has always trumped any other consumption date for this brew.

    Re-tagging @Marti403 and @Jas45678 cause they didn't get the tag as they were 6th and 7th tagged, only the first 5 people get tags per post. :stuck_out_tongue:

    I think we are running out of hotels that will accept us. :slight_smile:

    It looks like there was another round of SWTFYW that i missed out on. The first one was awesome. If anyone wants to test out how good old kbs is i'll bring a few for the bottle share.

    SWTFYW has evolved a lot since the first round. Highly suggest looking back into it.

    I'm going to try the online ticket deal Saturday. Couple questions, do you get to choose the day you pick up, and I'm assuming Friday & Saturday go first? That's ok by me as I can only do Tuesday or Wednesday.

    1) Yes.
    2) It's a crap shoot. More people will initially log on than tickets available. All will appear sold out instantly. Slowly over the next 5-45 minutes tickets will reappear for random days, because people did not complete their order.

    Started calling around for the KBS hotel package last night. Not one hotel listed on the KBS page knew about the KBS gift package. Anyone else run into this? From reading the description the Founder's tote will be in the room at check-in. Never been to this release so this could be the first year for the giveaway.

    I know there's not much posted yet but I don't want to read it all to see if the allotment has already been posted.

    According to the Eventbrite info, THREE 4-packs at $20 a pop is the limit.

    They must have updated it because I could have sworn I read TWO 4-packs when it was first posted.

    I forgot...do you indicate how many 4 packs you want at the time of ticket purchase or on pick up day?
