    There, I did it, new thread for this year.

    This will be my first time. What time do people plan on getting in line and do they usually allow sharing in line?

    If I remember correctly, they usually ask that you don't share bottles in line.

    As luck would have it, I will be in town for my nephew's birthday, so I'm planning/hoping to make it. I'd like to go Friday night to see what they have on tap, as well as go Saturday early to buy some bottles. It sounds like last year's even was pretty smooth and not too crazy, so I'm hoping for similar this year.

    DON'T share/bring bottles in line. It puts you and the property owner at risk. They really stress this but people do it anyway. Don't be that guy.

    Really no need to line up for this one. Get there 10 minutes before they open and you'll get your bottles no problem.

    No clue yet, they'll post bottle info closer to the release and a tap list even closer, usually.

    It is pricey, but you get the room for two nights, free growlers, food vouchers and first spot in line. It really is not an awful price point;

    What you get:

    -2 night stay for two in our Tan Room
    -VIP Seating at Kuhnhenn Brewing Company
    -2 Signed Bottles of Dark Heathen Triple Bock
    -2 Kuhnhenn souvenir glasses
    -2 Summer Solstice T-shirts to commemorate your visit
    -2 Food vouchers daily for you and your guest to use through the entire event
    -1 Free Growler fill per day to drink at The Sitting Room (on selected beers)
    -1st in line for carry-out sales

    No argument there! If I had the extra $$$ to spend on the weekend, I'd be in there.
