    Agreed. Well run, great stuff to try that I've never had, but screw those that won, they weren't me! (Ok, just kidding, congrats!)

    I saw you there, I should have said hello. Didn't win anything, but at least I got to try it all. And my wife won a BCBS, so that's all right.

    Great event once again @BeerBuyerBill and yet another reason why F44 is one of my favorite shops in town. Pretty fun showing up at close to 4:30 and still getting nice pours of both backyard and '12 bcbs!

    Definitely should have! The percentage of ladies that won things tonight was crazy high! I need to find a girlfriend to bring to these types of things :wink: I won a bcs which was cool. One of my favorite beers and can't complain about having another for the cellar!

    Yeah, I think it was a F44 staff member. Was that Bill? I don't know what he looks like, but probably.

    My first time going to F44, kind of cramped and I showed up at 4:00, just as they had finished pouring Vanilla Rye bottles and I didn't win anything so I guess it was pretty terrible all around. And I was over talking to you by the cooler then when I walked back over to @Centinela and @nicow5 they were finishing up glasses of Backyard. Now that I think of it, the event probably couldn't have gone worse for me.

    J/K, it was a good time, I got two pours of '12 BCBS for nothing and had a shot at winning a bottle of VR so worth the drive.

    Anyone see any newer releases from crooked stave around (possibly on the western side of the metro) cheers!

    Found two 4-packs of Central Waters Bourbon Barrel Barleywine at the MGM Wine & Spirits in Maplewood yesterday. Needless to say, only one left now :wink:.

    I believe F44 had some yesterday. I'd give them a call.

    Saw about 3-4 bottles of Crooked Stave Petite Sour Passionfruit at Stinson Wine and Spirits yesterday. Also, 10% off this week for their 3rd anniversary.

    We didn't get any Mure. Just Oude and Questsche.
    Check out South Lyndale, Zipps and Stinson for Mure. (Maybe Elevated also?) I'm pretty sure those are the stores that got some.

    South Lyndale has 2014 BCBS on the new items shelf right now
