    was thinking about it, then decided to do 512, Argus Cidery and Jester King instead.

    Yeah I've never been either so I'm really looking forward to it.

    I'm a little surprised more people haven't replied and said they're going. I love Real Ale(devils backbone was my first craft beer) so I'm not gonna miss it.

    Heard it's going to be clocking in around 14% abv as well. I'm going to be out there for this as well, followed by some Hill Country camping that night. Can't wait to have some Scot's Gone Wild..

    ANNIVERSARY PARTY TOMORROW!!!! 12-5pm
    Here are the answers to some of your most common questions:
    1. Yes you can bring your friendly dog as long as he/she remains on a leash at all times.
    2. Yes all ages are welcome. Of course you must be 21 to drink beer.
    3. Yes there will be food for sale (profits for charity) and there will be a vegetarian option.
    4. No you cannot bring your own alcoholic beverages.
    5. Yes the party is free and you will receive drink tickets to try different beers. There is a $5 fee to park because parking is on our neighbors' property.
    6. Yes you will have fun! See you tomorrow!

    I had a fun time. I ended taking my three dogs but got there late so spent about an hour in line. And finally got my beers at like 445. Not gonna complain about getting good free beer though. I'm for sure gonna show up early next year

    Had a great time! The lines really got long towards the end, but you can't complain when the beer is free! Plus with my wife being pregnant, I got twice the free beer. Score!

    I agree, well organized. Ticket book, signs everywhere, lots of tours etc. Only had long line for my last beer and I finished my 2nd-to-last in line so it worked out well.

    I brought my 14 year old sister and at the entrance they accidentally gave her beer tickets. The guy that checked my id noticed it and yelled out to the guy. I didn't even realize and would have given them back because I wasn't trying to drink too much. It was pretty funny but I felt bad cuz the guy looked a little embarrassed and I didn't want him to have gotten in trouble.

    Also when we were leaving my sister asked "wait..this was free?" And I explained how they can't sell beer there and then explained that freetail sells beer on site and she was confused at how stupid it was. Even a 14 year old that hates beer realized these stupid laws. She actually said "if I made lemonade at home I could sell it how why can't they do the same with their beer?" Haha
