The Metro Detroit Thread

[trickytunadicky]

Eisbock, BB4D and Tenacious Cassis were all pouring at Warren. Mango Fluffer was terrific. Prices for the big beers were a little high, even for Kuhnhenn, but they put on a nice event.

Agreed, but I enjoyed my quiet visit this morning.

Can someone do me a solid and post link to eventbrite page here?
I'm on the road and ain't going to scour the facebooks for it.

And will bottle sales be separate from the party, thereby creating another entirely separate debacle?

Of course there will. Taproom will be open to the public.

 

[Ckozl]

Well I'll be damned they posted it on time.

That's quite the list

Might even be worth the $1.50/oz they're charging. Will be interesting to see if there's any sort of quantity for some of these.

The best part is I'm sure they think that is an endearing term.

[trickytunadicky]

Well I for one, am excited to see Coolio and drink KRE.

Coming into town for the I Love the 90s tour the night before. Rather pumped for the whole visit.

I'm worried if I buy a ticket, they're going to run out of beer by selling it to the public. #kuhnhenned

I think they are setting it up likensummer solstice where the ticketed stuff is out in the tent.

 

[trickytunadicky]

Which means the KRE will have enough ice on the keg to keep it at about 70.
