St. Patty's Day Tasting - Durham/Chapel Hill, NC

Damn, now thought of it that way! In that case, we will have our own porto-let delivered Sunday morning.

 

Hopefully it won't overflow like the ones Huna Day!

 

I'll bring some 6oz taster glasses if that's the preferred medium. I've got a half dozen or so I could bring. I also have a plethora of pints, and tulips if those are preferred (although I figure that the smaller glasses will spread things around better).

I'm bringing CCB Ghost Stories, DFH 120 Minute IPA (2007), and not sure what else --
I just got a fresh 6 pack of Jai Alai cans for my birthday, as well as a 4-pack of 12 oz CCB Cubano-Style Espresso Brown Ale (which I have yet to try). Also have bottles of 2013 La Folie, 2013 Dark Horse Double Crooked Tree, 2013 Heavy Seas BA Siren Noire, and 2013 Sierra Nevada BA Bigfoot... Was hoping to have Hardywood Bourbon Sidamo and some ready for the tasting, but I won't receive them in time. What say you, gentlemen?

Edit: still have a half case of Hopslam too... if someone wants to bring some Expedition Stouts we can have some Darth Vaders.

 

Still working on exactly what we are bringing but so far it's looking like a 2011 BA Naked Evil to pair with that 2012, a New Glarus Wisconsin Belgian Red and an OHB Imperial Dominance. More surely to follow....

Also I'll be happy to bring some Exped Stouts.

 

Tim do we have an up to date list? 2010 Huna and Hopped Up Johnnie so far for me, maybe a MZ then to match the Hopped up Johnnie? Sucaba?

 

My stuff isn't up to date. Not sure about Adam's, think we're waiting to see what he ends up with from VT (today I think?).

 

You win the rar contest
At this point, people should just bring whatever ha

 

From Vermont, I'm bringing the 2L Abner and probably a Lawson's Triple Play or some other hoppy beer.

 

That mini surprise was pretty amazing. Thanks Tim and Adam! It was an epic tasting to be sure.

 

I think it's safe to say we had enough beers. That Hopped Up Johnnie was incredible, certainly my favorite stout/barleywine/old ale and maybe my favorite of the night. Thanks to everyone for the ridiculous beers and a great time.

 

Ridiculous. Thanks to all of you!

 

Wow what a great time, with great friends new and old, and outstanding brews. Thanks Tim for host(ess)ing. Hope everyone made it back safe and sound. Again, happy belated Birthday to the boyz. Can't wait to see what Version #3 brings forth. Cheers, Gary

 

And thanks to you, and also Adam, for the generous birthday beers!!!!

 

Glad you guys enjoyed it

 

I need highlights. Stat. Top 3? Top 5?
