Perhaps we are just looking at a bunch of new beers..


Yeah, those are cold gloves. That and they don’t add the pepper to the barrel for Ghost BCS. I’m hoping their new beers. They always seem to push new stuff out instead of continually rehashing the same beers. Can’t wait!

I hope Half Acre brings some Vanilla Baume, though I’m not certain they will...

Man, I wish you guys had your storefront open, I literally live around the corner on St. Paul and can’t wait to check out the space. Looking forward to whatever you bring out on Saturday...

I am very curious about that Rye barrel, I hope they do another sour stout like Old Max...


I’m guessing Rye BCS

But that would make it too easy and have they ever made something THAT easy?

I guess the Hop Juice Festival is expanding to a 2 day affair.. and being moved to the Round House (Which allows train travel)..

Anyone know what might be getting tapped at GI Stout Fest this year? I remember they released a list prior to the event of what Goose Island would at least be pouring...


Haven’t heard much about the Goose beers.. might ask Ken later.. thought that doesn’t mean he’d know the Clybourn stuff.. which is always just as plentiful as the Fulton stuff

I heard mentionings of HIB in Bourbon form from FFF..

Destihl is bringing:
Dosvidanya
Black Angel
St Dekkera Sour Stout (A new entry into the St Dekkera Series)



dosvid is the barrel-aged version. black angel is standard.
barrel-aged sour cherry stout will also be pouring.
the sour is a blend.

good to be back in town.
