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.

I don't have a crazy amount of patience to hunt down and wait for beer these days, but would definitely do something like that as long as the wait isn't so crazy that you're out of beer and still have a long time to wait in line.
Is the Triple Barrel 2018 or did they do that other years, too? At 19%, I'd like to try that one in another decade.
