Oh I'm definitely putting on a nice front here and plan on jumping him and taking that glass.

Still open for anyone else who might be getting rid of one.

 

[Tooch4321]

Sorry, I just ran in and grabbed the one, it was pretty crowded with people waiting for the event to start. I had to get to Whole Foods and back to the wife and our tiny gremlin. I might be able to grab another, I’ll let you know...

Goose replied that it is at a "secret location"...so basically it's at their barrel house on Sacramento.

On another note, what's up with event on Thursday at The Bungelow?

 

[vav1]

Yep, Sacramento. It’s not complete without Adan though.

You think any of us old curmudgeons are attending that event?

 

[americanzero4128]

I'm sure whoever is there had a blast with the storm that rolled through a little bit ago.

Couldn’t pay me to go there however, I did have some nostalgia strings pull at me for a fleeting moment this year where I wanted to go for the first time since 2015.

I heard they stopped the bands, stopped serving food, shut down the taps, asked people to evacuate the tents, and stopped letting people in for 2 hours.

Lots of angry beer nerds on a certain Facebook group.

 

[furley]

when are they going to figure out that this event should be another time of the year. spring in the midwest is too unpredictable.

If they move it to winter there will be dead people.

LOL @ thinking beer people understand basic business concepts even after hosting this thing for 15 years.

They still sell it out every time.

It’s not normal.

Well got free entrance to dld since i didnt want bottles. Fortunately was sitting at a picnic table with umbrella when storm rolled through. People suck though, huge pissing contest everywhere. Had some awesome guest taps though, vsoj and derivation 11. Likely my last time going. Just went for a couple hours, that was enough for me.

 

[BobCobb1]

Completely forgot about Great Taste lotto this year. I blame yeahnatenelson in part for not making a Great F’ing Taste 2019 thread in April again.

Appreciate any leads on extras...

 

[trickytunadicky]

Had a non-DLD party at my house for the second year in a row. Less rain. Nothing was stolen, no one shat themselves (that I am aware of?), no puke on my lawn.... I think we will call that a success. No live metal. Will probably stick to this plan until someone talks me into attending Hanson day/Hop Jam.

 

[thewimperoo]

For those still looking for the Tiki glass from Off Color. They're available online and at the Mousetrap.

no puke on my lawn....

You sure?
