    Shit! Any room left? Just noticed this thread and that happens to be my bday weekend. It'd be me + gf and I can vouch for myself as to quality of beers :slight_smile: or you know I can put out what Id bring and have WITTBEER decide my fate gladiator style.

    This event was allowed to be increased to 35. There's a few people without fb that have rsvp'd with me personally. Agreed that this should get moved to a private conversation.

    We might have room for a few more. I'll be able to say more confidently once we get this spreadsheet up to date.

    Oh fuck is this really happening?!

    Perennial Artisan Ales
    Abraxas returns one month from today. 11.9.2013. First time, limited release of Coffee Abraxas bottles, brewed in collaboration with Sump Coffee. Epic VIP draft list. Stay tuned for details.

    Yes, point being it's the same day. Which is a wrench in either set of plans.

    For some reason I read that as you thinking Coffee Abraxas would be at Tribes. I'm not smart.

    Alright everyone. We're officially at the limit for this event. The event listing on fb has the spreadsheet of attendees. Let me know if there's any issues.

    Awesome! You guys are incredibly hospitable! With this and the way the list is starting to look, this may even overshadow actual fobab.

    I don't know if I'd go that far but it does look like it will be a good time.

    What a great event! Thanks to WITTBEER for organizing and Tribes for hosting. I enjoyed meeting everyone and you were all extremely generous in sharing your prized beers. Can't wait to see the final beer list and pictures. Looking forward to the next Faux-bab.

    Aghhh sorry fellas I had to miss this today. Felt like death when I woke up this morning, the thought of more alcohol literally made me sick. Thats what happens when you schedule your birthday party the night before faux-bab I guess.

    Irony is, I wanted to go to faux-bab more than I wanted to celebrate my bday.

    Hope I can still be invited to the next one if this becomes a regular thing!
