There will be a limit of six bottles on Friday; the limit for saturday is yet to be determined. Bottles are $15 each.
As with previous bottle releases, the Baltic Porter will be available on draft at the same time. Also being released on draft the same day is fall seasonal oktoberfest, a German style mrzen. At this time there are no plans to offer the oktoberfest in bottles.
