    Updated the spreadsheet... Hopefully this all works out for me to join. Planning on it! Probably get a hotel again based on how big this list has gotten!

    We should all chip in to have some stickers or something made, that would be sick!

    Ay gents,

    Afraid I'm out for the 1st. Gonna be a busy summer for me, seems like every friend I have is getting married at once.

    Looking at the spreadsheet... jesus christ. Try not to burn holes in your stomachs.

    Hello! I just added some bottles that I would like to bring. My sour selection is small in my cellar as I do more heavy alcohol malt-driven stuff. However, I hope my offerings are welcome in comparison to some of those insane beers listed!

    Probably not. That is one spiced stout I am just not a big fan of.

    I'd certainly pick up a couple, they make great extras.

    If the price was right, yes. I just tried that beer for the first time last week and enjoyed it

    Looks like a lot of fun...I just had this crash on my porch recently and looking for someone to share with.

    Also have the recently released Upland sours. Let me see if I can make that date work.

    On that same topic, all of those Avery's landed at Binny's South Loop yesterday. I grabbed one of each. $12.99 ea, all were 12oz bottles except the raspberry was a 22oz. Pricy, but I doubt the will make their way around here again until next year.

    That is pricy indeed. I wonder how much Chris will be charging (probably the same)?
