    Good news! Fox & Grapes and Cassis, as well as Sense of Direction, BA Convenient Distraction, and BA Night Train with Coconuts will be released on April 4th at O'so.

    http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/1374829

    Looks like 2 bottle limit on Cassis, 12 bottles for F&G, 6 for SD, 12 for BACD and BANT. Also interesting is a "Fox and the Grapes Bundle", which will be one bottle with a 10"x13" print of the label artwork.

    Hope I can make it, been to the last two and they were great events.

    Easter weekend...bummer.

    If anyone is in the Madison area is open to a proxy, please PM me. Could meet IP and would throw in a local 6'er, or try to find something for you during my trip to Phoenix the weekend before.

    Let me know. Thx.

    Damn Cassis did sell fast, holy crap. I was wondering what was up with the 2-bottle limit, looks like they just didn't have enough left.

    Looking forward to the new FFG sours. Seems like the recent releases are getting good responses.

    Is anyone taking a risk with the O'so beers, or just FFG? I'm hoping others try the O'so stuff, and then that ships to Madison. Can't imagine it selling out.

    My opinion on this is well known; I am not even considering risking the O'so stuff at all.

    Sour coffee lends me to believe it's just another batch gone bad. That doesn't even sound good.

    Nope, it's exactly how it was intended. I had this on tap at their anniversary party and enjoyed it.

    If anybody from the Milwaukee area (or slightly North of) is available to proxy for me, shoot me a PM.
    As a thank you, I can pick up your gas tab or if you're interested in bottles of 16, Chocolate Rye, Black Friday.

    Figured it was worth asking. :slight_smile:

    Sense of Direction was pretty good, if very odd (just how I felt about Sikaru).

    Yup, they need to prove that they have mastered QC before I pick up another beer from them.

    Bourbon Barrel Convenient Distraction has to be one of their best barrel aged beers yet, imo. I had it on tap.
