Seriously though, a side-by-side-by-side-by-side-by-side-by-side of different BCS barrels would be amazing at an event like that. |
Its a hard event to plan around if traveling. Its every September but they don't drop the dates until a week before. I feel its strategic on their part but who knows.
They've also stretched it out from a weekend event into 5 days and taproom instead of the block party format. So it'll be interesting to see how it goes. Maybe they think expanding the days, especially adding week days, will spread more people out but that seems optimistic unless they do reserved seating or some other crowd control measure.
The problem (a good one to have) is not knowing when things are getting tapped. They do let you double fist though so the strategy in the past is to grab 2 different pours, wife grabs 2 different pours, jump back in line and share/repeat. A few of those like the double barrel Blantons/Eagle and 4 Year Rare are new so the hoards will be circling.
