We will be there, early (5-6 or so). The Ironman is awesome, but don't miss the hop picker!! One of fsb's very best beers! I am thinking of buying a keg.

indeed, the ironman is great.
and with every sip, that black sabbath riff
keeps playing in my head.

ive gotten kegs from the freestate before.
called and ordered on monday as per their instructions.
when i do, they tell me what is available.
its usually their core house beers.
seasonal beers are almost never available.
how did you score a keg of ironman?
and how much did it cost?

Just asked for it. It's still a pretty green beer IMO, so I wanted some to allow it to age a bit.
$48-49 for 5 gallon cornie.

Call before Monday if you want something specific. That helps sometimes.

Can't hurt to mention that you are with the brewers guild and will be using your own equipment. That seems to help, I have gotten kegs of C3 and other special brews in the past.
