I picked up my tickets for both sessions yesterday.

Should be FANTASTIC!

I'm bringing two beers. I am doing an Imperial IPA ( using some of the bale of leaf Chinook I bought) and I'm bringing a pin of "extra strong stout", that could be the template for this years Katarina.

How much are the tickets? What do they get you? Same as last year?

$20 each. You get one glass and I think 10 5oz samples. (I picked up the tickets yesterday but they're safely stored away at home while I type this at work.)

Is it deffo 10 5oz samples or is it 5 10oz samples? I know Ralph was undecided on this a few days ago and I forgot to ask last night. I would rather see 5 10oz samples as a half pint really lets you taste the beer properly, and it feels like a proper festival instead of a tasting.

Couldn't you just get 2 samples at a time?

I was wrong about the info on the tickets. Ralph must have told us during his visit to our table last night. I'm pretty sure he said 10 5oz samples. Anyways, we were both impressed at the lengths of the effort Ralph is putting into this!

I dropped in last night and the beer menu and chalk board both said 10 x 5oz samples.

I was there last night and forgot to pick up my ticket. A bit disappointed, actually, that none of the servers mentioned it to us. I've been a semi-regular (well, about three visits a month) since the early summer and thought someone might have clued me in.

Ah well, I'm back next Monday and will definitely be getting my ticket then (I'm partial to the evening session, but does anyone think any of the beers would run out before then?)
