Hey,
if anybody who bought a ticket and has to cancel for whatever reason, I would be interested in buying it along with the tasting booklet (as long as it would still be honored being that my name wouldn't be on the ticket if names are printed this year.)

What am I looking at? What are those.
I may consider it, but I'm probably not willing to pay much more than what a case would cost since it's effectively a case of Huna.
Yeah, I'm guess they will go for a ton of money.
Yeah I seem to remember them doing something like that a year or two ago where the winner of the auction got to pick what to fill it with.
So compared to the fiasco of last year, would any who attended care to comment about the smoothness of operations, crowds, bottle pickup, getting tastes of the rare guest tap stuff, and food trucks?
How did they deal with folding chairs, and coolers, and outside bottle sharing?
I had never been until last year and was a total crap fest, but I am really hoping that was fixed this year. The tap list this year looked epic beyond any wildest dreams.

Sounds like I will be trying to get a ticket for next year. This year sounds like what I was hoping last year would be.
So this year you got four bottles of the Hunaphu, but was there any double barrel stuff? I heard last year they had that and you could choose, though I didn't find out until I got home.
I grew up in Grand Rapids before the beer scene ever developed I had moved, but I still have a bunch of friends who live there, and hope to someday score some CBS, which they all rave about. In order to get it will probably require a ticket to next year's event to setup a trade however.
Yeah, I imagine the whales went fast, which can be expected when there is so much hype about a particular beer, even if well deserved seems that people want to know what the fuss is all about. This year the list was amazing. Last year I hadn't much recognized many of the names, but only shortly after that did I begin to dabble in trading, so maybe that is part of what my ignorance was on the lists at the 2014 H Day.
I was ill prepared for last years event though by all common sense what explained was that I shouldn't have needed to be. I arrived late, by which point a line over a mile long had developed and when I got in I was starving. If I can get a ticket next year, I'm headed down the night before eating well for dinner and breakfast and going to bed early enough to get into line early so as to enjoy some whales before the crowds build.
Super happy that the CCB folks continued the event and handled with greater responsibility this year, and that they make a cult beer that helps put FL on the map. Huge Kudos to CCB for re-inventing the day to make it enjoyable.

Did it not make it down there with this latest release? I know of 3 opportunities to get it in Cincinnati in the last month or so. One at a local bar where I got a pour. The other a BA beer fest I skipped because tickets were expensive. The other is at an Irish bar on St. Patricks day at 8 AM. Not going to take off work and start drinking at 8 AM for it.hope to someday score some CBS, which they all rave about.

My brother sold one for 50 right out of the door. He was happy.
