FAQs

Can I buy XVI before Nov 3?

No, there will be no physical bottles available before November 3, and we will not be doing any presales before doors open for the event. 


What time can I arrive that day?

Doors to buy bottles do not open until the party starts at 11:00AM, in previous years the line has started forming as early at 9:00AM.

Coming early?  Get your buzz going!  Local roaster Joebella coffee will be offering complementary coffee from 9AM to 11AM in the front parking lot! 


Will the Visitor's Center be open at the regular 10AM time?

No.  All attendees will be checked in through the Visitor's Center in order to get into the party, no one will be let in before 11AM


Where is the party? 

The party takes place right inside our Paso Robles brewery at 1400 Ramada Dr.  Guests will pay for their entry bottles at Visitors Center, all IDs will be checked at this point and guests will then be allowed into the brewhouse party. 

*Please note: while the party is in our partially enclosed breezeway weather in the past has been quite chilly, warm clothing is recommended for the day as the event space will not fully shield guests from the elements.


Will the Buellton restaurant have XVI as well?

Yes, the Buellton Taproom restaurant will be open regular hours for the day and will be selling bottles of XVI and offering it on draft as well. 


Will the Paso Robles Brewery Taproom location be open that day?

Yes, The Taproom will be open regular business hours from 10AM to 9PM on November 3rd and will also be offering a vertical tasting of XIII, XIV, XV and XVI on draft only for the day.


 Are there Designated Driver or Under 21 tickets? 

No. Everyone in attendance must be 21 or older. Guests are welcome to come into the party and not drink beer, but because everything inside is free  the party is intended as a "thank you" for purchasing 3 bottles, there must be 3 bottles purchased per each adult in attendance. 


How many bottles maximum can I buy?

In order to assure we can supply enough bottles of XVI to go around we will be limiting sales to 6 bottles per adult. 


Can I buy less than 3 bottles? 

Absolutely, 3 bottles is the minimum to gain entrance to the release party but you are more than welcome to purchase 1 or 2 bottles. 


Do I have to carry the 3 bottles around with me at the party?

No, after you pay for your bottles you have two choices: You can either receive them right there (we'd suggest putting them in your car) OR you can hang on to your receipt until the party is over and pick up your bottles then. No bottles will be held over night! 


What if I lose my receipt?

Don't lose your receipt!  There is no way for us to track pick up of beer, if you lose your receipt you will not be given beer.


Where can I stay nearby?

The Courtyard Marriot has blocked room rates available for the weekend, make sure to tell them you are here for the party.  Block rate ends October 19.
