Welcome to this year’s Futures Bets, our annual barrel-aged beer share program where you’re not just a beer fan—you’re part of the journey from barrel to bottle! With three exclusive tiers to choose from, periodic updates, special sampling events, and an anticipated Release Party, Futures Bets brings you closer to the heart of our craft.
Three Exclusive Tiers: Choose from our carefully crafted tiers based on your preferences and commitment level.
Limited Availability: Only 100 Futures Bets are available across all tiers.
Monthly Barrel Updates: Get periodic emails on the status and aging process of each barrel.
Sampling Events: Enjoy invites to special sampling events, both scheduled and impromptu, to taste and experience the brews as they mature.
Release Party Access: Join us for our Futures Bets Release Party where you can pick up your bottles and enjoy draft pours. Each tier offers something unique, including a multiplier option for Tier 3.
Each tier offers varying levels of exclusivity, draft options, and bottle allotments.
The Futures Bet beers will be placed into three tiers this year, so that you can get a small amount if you choose, but you won't get many of the perks by getting a normal entry. But, it's a great way to get in on the action.
Once we package all the beer, we will sort them into two groups: High Demand and Highly Available.
High Demand will be the beers with lower yields and ones we anticipate will be the most sought after beers.
Highly available will be beers that we have enough to spread out pretty much to everyone.
Perfect for those who want a taste without the extras. Includes three bottles (no draft or multiplier). Limited to 20 spots.
Ticket holders will be notified of what beers they can select from
Pre-selected from the available beers, but you will get the following:
One from High Demand
Two from Highly Available
*Only 20 available
Six Bottles + Draft Option – This tier includes six bottles, draft access at the Release Party, but no multiplier. Limited to 30 spots.
Basics of your Future Bet:

Allotment is decided after Tier 1 is finished
*Only 30 available
10-12 Bottles + Draft + Multiplier – The ultimate experience with 10-12 bottles, draft pours, and a multiplier on your bottles. Limited to 50 spots.
Plus, with every paid entry, members will get a custom poker chip, perfect for collectors or trade among friends, which can also be exchanged for perks in the 2026 program. Join us for this special journey into barrel-aged bliss!

Here’s how the beer draft selection process works:
Tier Ones get a turn: If you didn't pick up on it above, Tier 1 get a to choose before the draft starts. These bet holders will have an opportunity to select two (2) from the Highly Available and one (1) from the High Demand.
Random Draw: We’ll start by pulling names randomly from the pool of participants. If you have more than one entry (for example, if you've purchased multiple shares or entries), your name will be entered into the draw multiple times, increasing your chances of getting picked sooner in the draft. However, only one selection is allowed per pull, regardless of how many times your name is entered.
Making Your Pick: When your name is drawn, you get to choose your allotment from the available options. Each pull only allows for one Futures Bet's choice, ensuring everyone’s pick is secured before multiple selections from a single participant are made.
Applying Multipliers: If you have a multiplier (offered at Tier 3), it will be applied after your initial selection. This means that if you have a multiplier, once everyone has had an opportunity to make their first selection, you can use it to make additional selections from what remains.
