    If you tell them they have cute knees do you get extra beer?

    ...... Cause if they do, I'm there for the early show.

    Can you explain the shirt to me? I'm guessing it's showing a brewing setup of some sort?
    The symbols are reminiscent of chemistry, which Heisenberg has little association to...

    Thanks, my buddy explained this to me when I mentioned it to him. I don't watch TV. Now I think doing a kristalweizen is spot-on.

    Anyway, I might be going to Session 2 with a buddy, but I won't know til the last minute. Deadline on Monday.

    Had a great time... I had...

    Black IPA
    Heisenberg
    BA Sputnik
    BA Battle Axe
    Battle Axe on cask

    Also got the shirt. My fiancé also got Mr Sparkle & Soul Glo... Mr Sparkle wins in the beer looks department with injected sparkles, lol. Soul Glo was great as always. Some pretty kickass glassware as well.

    Step 1: fill growler with Pumking at Growler Room. Put in cooler.

    Step 2: go to ABW 2nd Anniversary. Drink all the BA Sputnik.

    Step 3: ...profit?

    Had a good time, my toddler walked around there like he owned the place. All anniversary shirts were sold out when I went to merch table. :slight_frown: the kristalwiezen was great. Ba Sputnik too.

    We actually made up our own session, apparently and were there 1:30 till 4:00

    We got there at 3:30 and waited in the line for waiting in lines. Worth it.

    I think we went at the perfect time... no lines longer than maybe 5-6 people for beer the entire time we were there. When we were leaving, we saw the big line to get in (might've been closer to 3:30 now that I think about it), whereas at 1:30, we just strolled right in the door with no line.

    Only complaint I heard was that people wanted more tickets during the same session. FWIW, I was pretty damn happy after the 5 pours I got. :slight_smile:

    Question ABW guys... Is Heisenberg going to make it out to distro, or was it just an Anniversary thing? I'd really like to pick up a growler for the Breaking Bad finale, heh.

    Personally, as a fan of wheat beers, I thought it was great. My fiance` couldn't get enough.

    PS: I poured a H&G One They Call Zoe into the ABW glass my girlfriend had Mr. Sparkle in when I got home and I think I accidentally made a H&G/ABW Colab beer: Sparkly Zoe Dechanel.

    If anyone was wondering what the Anniversary pilsner glass looked like... this is me trying to take a picture of Mr. Sparkle with mixed results:

    Seems to hold ~10-11oz.

    Anyone have an extra shirt?

    The Heisenberg shirts were movin'. I got mine as soon as I got there at 1:30pm and they were already out of Medium and Large, IIRC. Pays off to be a large format BA sometimes! I heard they were sold out by 3-ish.

    Yeah, I think 5 was just fine, even with two tabs for a full pour of BA Sputnik.
