This reminded me of cellarmaker when they were on the session. They operate as a type 23 "brew pub" license. Curious what the difference is. Obviously we all know they have no food.

Since I don't follow beer at all, I am just learning about the bcbs variants. Does anyone have an extra orange one or should it be easy to grab?

Just mix a regular with a bud lite orange.

I’ve seen it at a few shops (Chips in PB, Abbott in OB, South Bay Liquor), I don’t think that variant is flying off the shelves like Vanilla has

Anybody headed to eppig today? That glass is pretty beautiful...

There were some at Mr Ks. I'm at the bruery for 15/20 minutes I can snag you one. Or we can share the one I just grabbed.

Thanks everyone for the info. I will take a look around OB tomorrow or Monday, I am just getting back into town later today

Any recaps of strong ale fest?

 

[DannyFullpint]

I saw the list on social media. So much smaller then back in the day.

 

[ThatGuy1]

Definitely smaller than in recent years in both people and beer count, I'd say down 15-20%. I was surprised at the lack of BA stouts, I think there was an equal number of BA Barleywines on. There were some interesting things to try (I had no idea Russian River made a Barleywine - Old Gubbilygotch) but no killer beers. Imperial Coffee and Cigarettes was my go to for the night. I see it is an opportunity to try a whole bunch of things all in the same place and end up with more taster tickets than I start with.

Better than being the dude who fell out of the porta potty.

I was usually the guy that would walk on the beach and pass out for a bit. Power-nap, then go back for more.

The last one I went to 8-9 years ago a chick through up near a trash can I was standing next to. I haven't been back since.

Was that the tulip glass with the fill line at about 7 oz?

Or orange bitters. Weird beer.

wtf is with all of the religious references!?!?!? I go through 2 paragraphs before Beth starts to describe the actual beer offerings.

Yeah I skipped over most of the sentences in that article. Not much actual content in it but at least it tells us what beers they have available.

I've been craving brown ale lately. I need to get AleSmith Nut Brown or Benchmark Brown. Fall's black rye IPA hit the spot this past weekend.

 

[andrewdrinks]

I'm down in SD for the day Saturday - mainly to pick up my final Lost Abbey S&S beers for the year, but also to escape the cold. Would anyone be interested in splitting some beers someplace on Saturday night?
