Will the 55 chosen Gravity Head participants please roll forward?

Updated at 10:44 a.m.

The total number of kegs expected for Gravity Head (which begins February 25) is 55, down from a peak of 70-something two years ago. We think 50's about right. Roughly 18 will be pouring when the doors open, and the rest will be thrown into the fray as the days pass.

This year is the first ever All-American gravity celebration. The beers are arranged by BJCP style category, except of course the 3F Contingent -- this year's headliner. With any luck at all, the Gravity Forms will be ready for downloading in about a week.
