    I am not sure which will hurt worse, my liver or my wallet.

    How big of a cluster do you guys think this will be? Seems like it could get crazy since it's not ticketed...

    No worse than similar events such as All Stouts Day. It will undoubtedly be busy, you will wait in line for a while to get your next beer but other than that it should not really get out of hand.

    I was thinking the same thing. I'll sprinkle some Raspberry Wild One in there as well. I may not even touch a stout.....




    Yeah, right.

    Coming back to Chicago from Detroit that day... Bell's seems like a good stop on the way home.

    Third Coast Old Ale Reserve...as far as what they mean by "Reserve", I don't know. I assume it's an older vinage of TCOA...
