    Does any one have a picture of the empty bottles from the share that could be posted?

    I second this. It's been about a year since I had CW BBBW, but I actually prefer it to K13. K13 needs some time to cool. I also thought PVW BBVD was so hot, I couldn't taste the base beer. Grande Negro on the other hand kicks assssss. All of these I had on draft, btw.

    I'm surprised about all the heat you guys were getting. K13 seemed pretty damn awesome to me. A touch of heat, but nothing crazy. Maybe I'll sit on my bottle and see what happens.

    Grande Negro was ridiculously good. Better than I expected, and I was expecting really good.

    Great great time. Pretty crazy in that my girlfriend and I passed out in my car. My girlfriend randomly wakes up at 6:44 and wakes me up because she wanted another blanket. I look at my phone and have a bunch of texts at 6:28 from BA member seamick telling me to hurry up because they were passing out wrist bands. We run down to Voodoo and I get wristband # 164. When I finally got my beer allotment they ran out of full ones 1 person after me. Crazy. Also, a crazy fun time. Got to meet and talk to some really cool people.

    Of the draft offerings yesterday I liked PVW BBVD best, followed by 2Live Grand Cru Vol 2, K13, Grand Negro and then Lairds Gran Met.

    What did folks think about Good Vibes, I thought it was really good. My wife was addicted to the Gran Met Mimosas.

    I liked good vibes quite a bit. The firkin of it with the fresh apricots was also very nice

    in addendum to the K13 with pizza/fry stamp thing above:
    boxes #1-60 had the corresponding bottle # of K13, and all with fry stamps.
    K13 #61-263 weren't in matching box#s and have the pizza stamp.

    Glad I brought my table to the release, ended up 3 deep at it before I moved on. Glad I wasn't at my chair when whoever threw up in the bucket behind it booted. I had a good time and the weather was perfect.

    Hope everyone in the single bottle bif enjoys their bottles.

    This was one of the better run releases I have ever been to. When I talked to the head brewer he was saying that they have someone watch forums and see how people screw up other releases and they do things to make sure they don't have those issues. There was no line cutting, there was space for everything and everyone, and lines were pretty quick. Great work voodoo!

    agreed, the lines moved much faster than the march release

    That BIF was a great idea. Thrilled I walked away with a Chocolate Rain. I hope someone enjoys the bottle I brought.

    That's because we were all frozen blocks of ice last time.

    Really though, great job by voodoo. Not a single complaint about anything at all from me. Well run, well organized event.

    Enjoyed the BIF and wanted to thank your crew for organizing it and the rock, paper scissor tourney.

    I also noticed people saving bottles for the brewers and crew to try. We went back in after dropping our bottles off and gave them some BA Blackout to share. It was pretty funny because when we walked in that door people swarmed over yelling "No! wrong door!" When we said that we already had our bottles and wanted to say thanks for the hospitality we were met with high fives.

    Awesome time as always. Great food, great beer, and the process as a whole was a bit more efficient than last time.

    Also, shoutout to stakem; his Berliner homebrews were delicious. Thanks for sharing!
