    It's only about 100 cases of Krieky Bones. So making its own release would be a bit of a cluster fuck. I'm really excited about this.

    I look at it as a bonus to those who show up. Every beer release should have a bonus to the faithful...Good on FW for doing cool things like this.

    guessing one bottle per ticket? I think bretta Weiss was 350 or 400 cases?

    Just putting this out there, but I bet to keep the crowd manageable and give a pleasant experience that there were 50 tickets per session available. If this is true, everybody can leave with a case of KB if desired :slight_smile:

    Also, I'm not so sure that the limit on Bretta Weisse is 4, or that's just what's included with more available for purchase if so desired.

    FW said per ticket holder, you can buy an extra two bottles of Bretta Weisse. I'm guessing 3-6 bottles max per for this Kriek. This is shaping up to be a event closer to the Feral One/Parabola/Opal release minus the free food and a lot less people.

    Sounds like a plan. Yeah, don't forget the Double DBA too.

    Thinking about getting a ticket to the late session now.

    It's 3 bottles of Krieky Bones per ticket. So sounds like each session will have about 100 people deep. Which with the two hour time frame seems pretty good to me.

    Come on, Double DBA is practically a shelf beer. I see it sitting there for months and months. So much so that this is the last bottling of it since they got bigger fish on their plate.

    Just ran into Jeffers at a FW event in SB; wouldn't confirm the surprise beer, but did say it was 100 people per session.

    I haven't seen it sitting on shelves in my area, unless I'm blind or ******ed. I won't rule it out for now.

    Well, I pulled the trigger. I got to try Bretta Weisse tonight at the FW event in town, and it was okay... but, not worth $15/bottle, so I'm hoping the rest of the offerings on Saturday make up the difference. It's FW, so I'm guessing they will.

    The stuff they have at their tap room usually is more than worth the price

    On that same instagram post by sourjim. Though since I read it, the post got removed and his statement is that it's a limit of 4 per guest on the mystery beer.
