I think he was trying to be funny? Wasn't he?

I don't think so. One of the guys that entered the LIF I ran said he went up to try to talk to him and was soundly rebuffed. I don't know, though. Truthfully, it's somewhat disturbing that it's so difficult to know whether this was serious or a joke.

Man. I seriously hope it was a joke. I just assumed no one would be such a ****.

Homeless guy steals craft beer, now has hand written sign and beer to trade. Now the one red paperclip beer. Helpna brother out.

 

[abawol01]

Anybody see this guy or know who he is?

I ended up running a meme contest LIF on one of our local pages featuring this pic (Top 4 places won the 4 beers listed in his FT)...come to think of it, I may just recycle that idea here. I could stand to give away some more beer, and this guy is epic.

Hey! Anyone enter the Bell's Anny Party lottery? And Win?

 

[Johnnie Nepal]

Shutout on the Bell's tix.

Looking for a single if any of the lucky ones have one to spare.

 

[mattvandyk]

Yup. They're both spoken for Johnnie Nepal , but if Bell's allows us to buy more for friends on Sunday, I'll circle back and let you know.

Anyone know anything about this? Looks like they're going to open in Ferndale at some point. Obligatory kickstarter campaign set to begin soon.

Old school auction post. That's how they used to do it before the interwebs and facebook.

HA! Was just about to reply here. I got 2 tickets yesterday (that are spoken for), but they're not tied to names or anything, so I was gonna go over there again this morning and grab a couple if you were still in need. Glad you're taken care of!

I'm in for Saturday because I'm new money and don't know any better.

My planned first stop on Friday. I am always about trying new beers that these festivals, but Dragontrax and BBPt5 are must-haves every time I go now. Unfortunately, no Funkalicious from The Livery this year.

 

[cneville1]

Was pouring ar River's Edge, lots of good stuff. Short's and Territorial had a ton of good stuff, Bell's Wildberry Rye was a shocker too.

Honestly too many good beers, far too many to recall, willl report back.

What's everyone's plan for Mead Day? I'll be taking my wife to Schramms for Brunch. Will try to make it out to B. Nektar. Skipping Kuhnhenn.

Everything after brunch depends on the family for me.
