    Didn't head over to JK this past weekend due to the weather. I heard Jeff mentioning that there were around 400 bottles left of this from an original allotment of what 3000?

    Will this last to Saturday? Considering making the trip from Houston but not sure if it will even survive Friday at this point.

    Thanks in advance my dudes

    I planned on driving down too, but doubt it'll last so I changed plans.

    Yeah I figured as much, especially with how fast this stuff disappeared on the first weekend. I'll definitely make a change of plans then. Thanks for the heads up.

    OP, I've been fretting over this question myself. I'll be shooting to get there Saturday and wondering whether it's worth it to rush there and stand in line for a bottle. I'm thinking at the least I'll get it on tap, so that works for me. Plus, the Hibernal Dichotomous will be available, so that's more consolation.

    Curious what the tap situation will be, I think they were pouring from bottles.

    I can't remember where I read it but I think they will be pouring out of firkins this weekend. And also I doubt that MvB bottles make it past 8pm Friday. Especially if they weather is nice. I would be very surprised.

    They definitely were pouring from bottles in the tasting room on Sunday.

    Check their twitter. I saw them respond to someone about how much was left.

    There you go

    "... one gravity keg (20L) Friday. Two gravity kegs Saturday, and one gravity keg Sunday."

    wait, we can't discuss a new regional beer release in a regional forum of beer advocate? gotta go to their individual twitter feeds instead?

    ok.

    I was just saying I didn't know exactly what they had said so you should refer to their twitter. Nothing more

    In the same boat. Was planning on going down Saturday but doubt any will be left by then.

    Naw, it's not that. The other threads spiraled out of control, and devolved into personal attacks instead of actual discussion. So, they were shut down. Even on FB things turned into a shit show that JK cleaned up.

    Jester King posted that about 480 bottles were left on Sunday. Hopefully it'll last a little later into Friday, but I wouldn't count on it.

    Hoping that with so many people rethinking their plans, that the MvB kegs will last through Saturday evening...
