    No, because I work in the Loop. The soonest I could get out there would be about 5:45 or 6:00.

    I'll be in the area for another month if anyone would like to swing by Tinley Park.

    When is the next practice/game/beermeet?

    I have 60ish bottles in my cellar to clear out in the next two months or so, and I would like to share a few with some BAers

    I wouldn't mind a weekend practice. When does the season actually start?

    Where's the tasting pic? Were any more 2-liter bottles opened after I left?

    I kept the bottles and will post a pic later. Let me just say that there were zero ounces of beer wasted -- everything that got opened got drank. No cookies were spared either!

    So someone ate that burnt ass one that was sitting out all night? Loved the joke that I woke up to as well.

    Yes, plus the really burnt ones I found in the kitchen that didn't even get put out. :slight_frown:

    Like Dana said, thanks again for hosting, Ed! You and Mrs. HighWine are gracious hosts! That being said, when's the malt liquor tasting?

    I think Mr. and Mrs. @EOTLBrewer are going to host the malt liquor tasting. Like FOBAB, I will be staffing a special fruit flavored and blending table. The event is not to be missed!
