I am so unhappy to be missing this year's festivities. Should have skipped that #forscience crap last year and come now instead.
And away we go....

Can't wait for the **** show at Blue Monk in Buffalo. Thanks for making it ticketed but not for making it open to the public. Hopefully people stay away outside of the 140 with tickets, that has to be close to occupancy as is.
Holy **** Zwanze @ Akkurat changed from last year. Barely got 1 pour of Zwanze, 7 out of 9 kegs kicked before 9 pm, last year I had three pours of Zwanze and when we left at midnight everything was still on except Zwanze and Iris Grand Cru.
I hate beer.
I so wish I could blame Americans, but the only US people I met there were a gay couple who had no idea what Zwanze Day was. Swedish hipsters ruined Zwanze, or something.Must have been Americans in town.
It was very relaxed and not at all a **** show. Guess tickets and weather kept some people away.I couldn't make it anyway, but I don't get the point of the tickets and then opening it to the public at the same time. when they open, they should at least have a separate line for tickets holders to get in first but that probably wouldn't work too well on the sidewalk anyway.
have fun!
Had a great time at Schera's It was cool to be able to hang out with SecretSquirrel and share some beers. Per usual the food was top notch, and the people were cool as ****. Unfortunately the bottle sales line sucked. It was taking people over an hour to get through, due to too many cards, and hand written receipts. Use cash folks!
The bottle share was top notch so I only drank my ticketed beers and the Pure Guave. Check my Untappd for the ticks I could remember. Same user name.

HaHaHa!!! I totally missed that. It was apparently the first time on tap in the US. I skipped it, but picked up bottles.Looks like a great tap list. LOL at Dieu du Ciel being Belgian though.
Apex also had bottles of Iris for... $90!! Ahahahahahahaha

I saw their picture of bottles for sale and said "damn! That's how much I paid for them in Belgium on Zwanze Day." Granted ours were '12 versions of some but I would never balk at that price!For the fourth year in a row I thought Crooked Stave did an outstanding job, and this time was probably one of the best organized beer events I've been to. The ticket prices were more than reasonable given what I've seen at other places. $20 for a Zwanze pour, another Cantillon pour (Iris Grand Cru, Lam, Kriek) and a glass or $15 for a Cantillon pour and glass. The bottle prices were insanely cheap. The only bottle I recall that was over $30 was Framboos at $40. The guest pours were all reasonably priced at $6 as well. Big fan.
I made the point to several that I hadn't seen it in tap or heard of it on tap in the us before, interesting that SC has it on tap is in in bottles down there now too?It's been on tap for weeks at a bar in Charleston so whoever claimed that was mistaken.

Of course you went to the one I wasn't able to make. Sonofabitch.gifZwanze at Redlight Redlight was a lot of fun fun, despite being in Florida. Had a great share the night before and day of. All in all it was a fantastic weekend with a lot of familiar faces.
Now it's time for GABF and Shelton bro's.
