Sorry if I missed it, but did anyone go to the Bistro's Wet Hop Fest?

I think I'm gonna go back to the barrel aged fest of theirs next month.

Tried it flat at the brewery before they kegged it up. I was impressed. The red wine barrel isn't the sort of thing I'd generally want involved, but I thought it was nice. There were soft, toasty oak notes to it from that that added depth and a little something extra. Perhaps any acidity from the wine barrel (not contamination) played well with what coffee was left.

TL;DR It was delicious but I'll reinvestigate when I tap it at Beer Rev tomorrow.

I guess there was some confusion but the Founders thing is next Friday. It'd be good to see you anyway though!

So the Growler 'fill' place coming to Albany is going to fail isn't it?

Struggle to see this being a success, the delivery side and the brick and mortar place both.

The utopian vision of drinking overpriced growlers of average beer while sobbing alone in my basement has finally arrived.

All praise disruptive technology.

They were gone within 15', before I arrived. Apparently the line formed an hour early, so even getting there at 6 would not have mattered. Not that I was going to buy - was just curious.
