    So if someone does the package can they also pick up extra bottles on Thursday and Saturday?

    Also how well is it distributed?

    You should be able to buy extra bottles on the other release days, but supplies will be limited, and there will be lines.

    Abraxas (no variants) is distributed in every major market Perennial serves, but it goes off the shelf extremely quickly.

    Boo. No proxies. Although. I suppose you could just always buy it under a proxies name if they werent planning on attending themselves.

    Correct. So the name and the id have to match. Nothing about matching CC's

    Shocked about the smoothness of BPT as well - after MD, my expectations were nonexistent.
    However, I'm now pumped for a weekend trip to MO! Congrats to everyone!!

    Early this week I had planned to do this, but the more I thought about $25/bottle plus the cost of a commute to SL to pick them up, the more I fell back into "I'm just not paying that much for beer anymore" mode. I'm trying to get off the high dollar beer train and cooler heads prevailed this time.

    Those of you going...have fun.

    This was the perfect reason for me to get back down to St. Louis. Haven't had Abraxas in a few years because of the Chicagoland truck chasers and special events suck it up. Also I'll get to try Narrow Gauge, get back to SP Cellar, and maybe check out Civil Life if I have time. Now that we're into the Q4 2016 it's easier to justify PTO before it expires.

    "A limited number of Abraxas and variant draft pours will be available throughout the week. "

    I'm assuming Coffee Abraxas will be available in limited quantities for pours, but what other variant could be available?
