we are denver.

I was asking "Why aren't we Denver?" circa 2011 and now I'm like "Well that's another place I just don't care about!"

That said, One Lake is supposed to open by the end of the month and I care about them because they'll be 3/4 mile from me and have a rooftop.

if its 2000 rock, dovetail/lagers are modest mouse while haze/phase 3 would be linkin park.

So equally ****** but one side gets snooty about it?




(I like Dovetail a lot)

Yep...that is the place! I am opening a nano brewery on my balcony then just to finally get something on my stretch of Armitage besides Dante's.

"“I can’t imagine being a brewery opening right now and making IPA, because that seems like a dead market to explore as a new brewery,” Joseph tells GBH. “Our goal is to come with a sour program with a wide portfolio in order to bring something new to Chicago.”"

I'm not gonna **** on a guy for trying and maybe he makes some spectacular beer (though his use of "sour" in this quote makes me thing otherwise). But claiming that you are "bringing something new to Chicago" when you're pretty much copying Off Color's business model is... Well, it seems like you didn't do your market research.

To be fair, CansIn2022 beat their 'cans by 2022' promise by several years!

 

[Scalzo]

It will be interesting to see the brewing landscape in 5 years and who is still standing.

This seems like a no brainer for an event to attend.

I went before when the Greenlady did the charity event for BakeBisBife and it was an incredible time! Hard to beat good drinks by folks doing work for noble causes.

 

[Tooch4321]

Hey beeraficionado I have some older OC bottles and can probably get some swag to help donate to the raffle if you like?

#Blessed - Thank you for sharing. Every brewery has been responding immediately with way more than I was hoping for which has been an incredible experience. I prefer being on the giving (vs asking) end, but the generosity has been really special. Expect a really fun draft list and an insane amount of raffle and silent auction bottles.

I appreciate that! I already shook down Tader, but am definitely accepting personal donations too if anyone wants to help raise money that way.

You're a good man, I will add a bottle or two to the OC contribution then. Also have an odd New Glarus pack that I could pull together of some R&Ds and vintage Cran-bic...

we're leftover stalwarts of 2012-ish beer, where we release one imperial stout in the fall/winter months.

All I’m saying is ever since I had that coffee milk eyed in 2013. I’ve been waiting. Beer guy said it flew off the shelf. I was mad and happy at the same time.

Any chance someone could grab me an Off Color tiki glass tonight? Something came up and I can't make it. I can formulate a list of glassware I have to trade if that's your thing.

I was literally coming here to ask the same thing... lurchingbeast gets dibs but if anyone wants to make my awesome sis-in-law who collects tiki mugs really happy, let me know. I can toss some lambic at you?

 

[Tooch4321]

I have to go to Whole Foods tonight and will stop at The Trap and see if I can snag some for you kiddos. No promises, but stay tuned...
