    It doesn't live up to previous years.
    Thin, no chocolate, tons of coffee and barely any bourbon.







    Just kidding
    I had to be the first to say it.

    Coming to gr tomorrow to pick up my Kbs. What bar would be a good one to go to for Kbs? Also, I have a six pack of shorts freedom of 78 to trade if anyone is interested. Thanks

    I was there early ish (1:30 or so I think?) and it was quick. I think there was 1 person ahead of us.

    Took me longer to find a parking spot than it did to get my beer

    They do beer releases to perfection. Big fan of this system.

    The donkey stout is quite good. And for a class 1 is an amazing deal.

    Better stay out of Michigan than bro. Better off not crossing state lines.

    I've paid more for smaller pours recently, but not really looking forward to that on Friday. We'll see which of the spots is best and play it accordingly. Had previously thought Uccellos was the way to go, but given this is the opening weekend of the tournament, will likely be pretty busy.

    How much you think that keg of kbs cost them? $500ish?

    they certainly do it well but a beer release will always run more smoothly when there is no chance of the beer running out, other releases are usually a shitshow because people are trying to get some before the well runs dry.

    Damn, my KBS glass from last year also has a large crack in it.
    I just cant find it in my heart to throw it out.
    Until I get the new glass that is....
