    none the less, i would like to thank you.

    a few extra Beer Advocates can't be too bad. A lot of them, sure, but this isn't generating huge traffic.

    Right on. Just hope it doesn't turn in to a circus.

    Exactly. They posted it on facebook. It's not like it was a secret.

    I always thought they used a blueberry extract for the regular beer. I wouldn't think actual berries would have that kind of aroma.

    In any event, I'll be there because it sounds like a wild time.

    GUYS! Anyone in the Metro Detroit area -- I can't make it this weekend but Tres is one of my favorites. If anyone wants to give up just one bottle (but would take as many as you wanted to give me (: ) for trade or $ let me know. Strong ISO here. Cheers!

    They posted the beer list up on Facebook. Sounds like an interesting line up. Gotta say I do prefer the names that give a general idea of what you are getting.

    Fun names are great, but when there are 40 choices, a descriptive name wins for me.

    Multiple mint stouts, can't argue with that.

    Facebook has the event starting at 3. Does anyone know when the bottles will be available, hopefully well before 3?

    No offense, but it's been mentioned here a few times and it's on the actual posting on FB. It's 2pm for bottles, 3 pm for event.

    Yep I was too lazy this morning to click back a page. It is not on their facebook page, but yes it is on their website, which maybe you viewed through facebook. Or it's the mobile facebook that's my problem.
    Middle of the afternoon, oh well, was hoping to go get some and get back before family events.

    Actually re-read that, not sure when it'll be on in the taproom. The info on their website makes it sound like bottles and on tap at 2 but who knows. It would definitely be nice to try before you buy.
