Who’s going and what are you bringing?
I’ll probably have a bottle or two for sharing with berserkers who come to the event.
Going. One bottle for the community table and a few bottles to share with Bersekers as well. Looking at CellarTracker, it looks like I brought a Pontet Canet and Sami Odi last year to share with Berserkers. This year will probably bring a 2016 Third Twin Graciano and a pre-decanted 2010 Gruaud Larose.

The Pontet you brought was generous and amazing. Because of that I picked up some 2019s and it is also why I will bring some “berserker sharing” bottles this year.
Not sure about red, maybe a Kinsman Syrah, and might bring bubbles or Sauternes as a palate cleanser.
It’s definitely one of my favorite parties of the year and I really enjoy sharing wine, aged and new. That’s the best part of this crazy hobby.
Bubbles is my go to palate cleanser, aleays found the sweets to kill the character of a wine
Shoot, sold out already! I’ll have to be faster next year.
I’ll be there as a +1. Really looking forward to it. From years past, what would be a good wine(s) to bring, generally speaking? In other words, of what is there far too much and of what is there always too little?
are you going to the ‘release party’… of the “ticketed after party”?
For the release party it’s mostly to drink the Koby wines… (to be fair i’ve never really gone to one so i don’t know the vibe as well).
the After Party tho… is a total booze fun fest… so feel free to bring anything… i’ve seen selosse, bdx, hippy burgs, wa/napa/oregon, and basically everything and anything…
Ticketed after party…I’ve heard about it, and it sounds like just as you describe. FUN!
Maybe a Goodfellow sparkler and a red of some sort…what could possibly go wrong if everyone is like me (or more): one person, two bottles!
Ah ok! i’ll see you there I think.
I don’t think there’s a +1 to that tho… each person has to have a ticket… (sorry that’s my confusion b/c the ‘release’ event has a person + 1 guest thing) 
And yah… 2 btl is no issue… i’ve seen a couple bring 1 btl… and i’ve seen one person bring 4 btls… it’s just a fun time. see you there i hope!
Mark, not sure what to tell ya…I’m not on the list, by cousin is and invited me to something Kobayashi-related. PM if we need to discuss more. 
sorry i just mean you also bought a ticket / they bought you a ticket… so not technically I bought a ticket + you come for free as a +1 that’s all i meant…
the release tasting is 1 get a ticket, and that ticket includes a +1 guest… so 1 ticket = 2 people.
the after party is each person needs a ticket… so ur cousin bought you a ticket. all good! see ya there!
