Unfortunately, I only have two left and they're spoken for.














Oh wait, here's four more cases to pour at the anniversary party.
 
Awesome! Wish I could make it but at least a friend of mine and his gf is going which means one of each for me :) Cheers and happy anniversary!
 
Posted in another place, but wanted to re-post over here for those who may have missed it.

Just wanted to give a huge thanks to degardebrewing for a fantastic event, with the hope of many more to come.

Tapped highlights:
  • Imperial Boysenberry Bu
  • Imperial Strawberry Bu
  • Imperial Bu Merlot
  • Cigar City Brandy Hunaphu
  • Engine House No 9 Anniversary Wild Ale
Other highlights:
- Trevor bringing donuts out at 8 AM for those of us dumb enough to get there way too early
- The people - every single person we met was just awesome. I was the guy with the redhead who got there way too early and had the tent up at the front of the bottle line - it was a pleasure meeting you all and you made the waiting in line go by that much faster!
- Pulling Nails - to the guy who gave me a pour, shoot me a BM
- The extremely friendly, albeit tired, and awesome folks working the sales of the bottles. Thank you thank you thank you- you seriously rock.
- No line for Brandy Huna for about 2-3 minutes after everyone who wanted it got a pour
- Magnum T25
- The party moving on to the Pelican in Tillamook
- The bottle share after the event at the Mar Clair

Thanks again for a great time, looking forward to doing it again net year.
 
I had a great time and didn't even have time for a cat nap, thanks to De Garde and crew for putting on a good show. I hope you took the ladies working the bottle line out for crab legs or something, they were hustling!

Too many great beers, to even remember what I was drinking but I really loved the Fleur Desay, every Bu variation I tried, Peche n Brett, T25, Brandy Huna, etc

so pretty much everything I drank was incredible.

Think about that for a minute

No.














Ok. I did.
I liked it a lot, and as one of the only non sour beers on tap and to a lesser extent being shared, it helped break the 'monotony.'

Also, the folks at the recycling center are going think I'm a RAGING alcoholic when I drop of a quite literal truck load of empties today. If they dont already.
Y'all are ****ing crazy.


Edit: 371 bottles. I'll stand by my comment.

That number includes 42 Boysenberry Bu, 36 Crooked Stave, and 12 Cascade that we opened at the guest tap station. And the 1 Coors Light can in the parking lot (wtf?).
But yeah, epic fail man.


Edit: meant as a reply to kscaldef

Beer will decide it. Don't know. Possibly?

You mean the Oregon Brewers Festival? Heck no. I'm not going to get into why, but it's just not a good fit for us.
Obviously many thousands of people enjoy it.
