I get a rare Sunday evening in the city this weekend, any good taplists/events that I should to try hit up? Will be near both Fischman's and Rev taproom but really can travel anywhere.

EDIT: It looks like Rev taproom is closed on Sunday due to private party

Have fun man. If my wife would let me out I'd say let's go crash that party!

Goose is offering refunds on coffee and barleywine.

 

[Mugatu]

too bad you get a dial tone when you call. Guess it's just one more QC issue for GI

"FT: BCBS variants" is blowing up on the BA trade forums right now.

How many shitlords are going to abuse this refund process?

Also: free t-shirt!

Holy **** the service at the GI taproom sucks!

Server variation is worse than in the bottles of Coffee.

Regal kicked while there and was replaced by coffee. Of course on the day of THE ANNOUNCEMENT, it was by far the best pour of this year's coffee I've had so far, bottles or draft.

If you ask the LT (and lurchingbeast can attest to my father's meltdown) the service at GI Clybourn on the patio on Black Friday is the devil reincarnate.

Our favorite waitress got her patio tables pours of Prop. I love that woman.

Are we talking Clybourn or the taproom at Fulton/Wood?

I couldn't believe how long it took one of 4 bartenders to acknowledge our empty glasses while being seated at the bar. Meanwhile taking orders from at least 10-12 people that were lining up immediately to the left and right of us. My wife was ready to jump over the bar to serve herself.

This is pretty much how I remember it.

Is Breakroom worth checking out? Do they do flights? I've heard they have a good burger but I got mixed reviews regarding the beer.

My theory is that if it is truly an infection then the contamination involved the bottle filler. All the kegged stuff consistently seems as good now as mid November

I haven't had any this year that tasted infected. Just nothing as stellar as at the taproom. My pours at fobab were straight up green pepper.

Haven't been impressed by any of the beers, but I had a fantastic sausage sandwich.

Cracked a 2012 BCBCS last night. Drinking very very well. Good reminder of how good BCBCS used to be - just has the extra 'oomph' that has been lacking in recent years. No green pepper or off flavors detected. Just simply delicious.

Opened a '14 in early Dec that was amazing. Then followed it up a few nights later with a '13 which was really disappointing.

I'm one of the odd birds that keeps a decent amount of Coffee going back.

Might be fun to revisit that vert with someone trying to pawn off one of their "Bad" '15s after they get their refund or whatever the bros who bought a ton are doing now to maximize their value / do damage control.

Last one I opened was basically 2012 BCBS in a large format bottle.

Opened a 2010 BCBCS bomber at a tasting not too long ago. Still plenty of yummy coffee goodness in there.
