    I'm not sure what you're asking. These are all draft for the party. The Creepster and Anny Ale will be available in bottles, I believe.

    I thought in the past some of the special offerings were sold in bottles such as BB Black Sustenance a couple of years ago.

    Pretty excited that I won't be blacking out as quick this year with the toned down taplist. Still looks great tho.

    From the FAQ on the site

    Will there be bottled beer for sale?


    Yes, we will have Anni Ale as well as the 3rd ever Private Stache Bottle Release. Cases of this bottled beer will be available at the Honey Badger for purchase at any time during the event and available to take home and enjoy when you leave. Bottled beer and growlers will be sold out of the Pub.

    I think we all were very spoiled last year withe Free anny party and 100+ beers on tap but it sucks it is the same day as DLD. DLD bound, i want to try the famous Heady topper beer pong i have heard so much about.

    Spoiler alert: it's beer pong with Heady Topper as the beer. Good but not as fun as all the other shenanigans goin down all around.

    Not worth it IMO to skip Shorts Anny Bash for DLD.

    Werd.

    I'm 4 hours closer to FFF than I am to Shorts, and I'm still picking Shorts. I'm really looking forward to next weekend.

    My order of importance:

    1) freedom
    2) freedom
    3) freedom
    4) whatever beer has the honor of taking the place of freedom

    Can't make it up there this year, any BA got a ton of patience and 243 miles of plastic hose? Probably need a pump too. I have growlers ready to fill.
