    Properly carbonated Abrasive cans. Excellent.

    If we're lucky, there will be a thread up tomorrow complaining that those camped out in the tap room by noon today should get more 4-packs.

    Both will be on tap and a DJ spinning so you can always drink a beer and hangout!

    I was hoping I'd make it the rest of the month without having to make another beer purchase. Plans officially blown out of the water.

    Just to clarify, Cacao Bender is Draft, not cans.

    I am on my way!! Taking a bus to the red line. Hopefully I'll get there around 6:45. I'll be the Korean guy with the red and black Adidas backpack. See you guys there!

    Pretty chill around 5p. No line at all. Should last a while tonight, I'd imagine.

    Why would there be a line?

    Glad to have been able to grab some and didn't expect to see mad Cherry Murderous on the shelf!

    Cacao was outstanding.

    Got there a little after 6 expecting a madhouse and was pleased with the small turnout. Able to grab the leather chairs next to the door and hang out for a few hours. Good times.

    Cacao was absolutely fantastic. Very happy I was able to get to taste that one tonight.
