It was early, 9:45. I guess I was expecting more activity at the building since it's a brewery, restaurant and homebrew shop.

I know the Coop never opened until ~noon at the old place.

Probably the oatmeal stout I just kegged. It's the only thing I have ready right now that I think is worth entering. I did an amber recently, but I'm still on the fence about it.srm775 said:What are you going to enter?
