    They've been replacing the carpet with something newer, so I don't know how much of it is left, although I did see some in Concourse A (near the Laurelwood Brewing restaurant/pub) last December:

    Thank you for the heads-up about #pdxcarpet ... I did some research and indeed it looks like there is still some OG carpet in Terminal A / Alaska Airlines

    This talk of PDX carpet makes me wonder; what, exactly, is a Tillamook Carpet?

    Forest.
    Or water.
    Could be pasture too.
    Probably plaid made from those things.

    A thin but thorough covering of cow farts/poop.

    Tillamook carpet is camouflage , made from shitty dread locks from Colorado smeared in the finest cow dung.

    Did they misspell barrel on the Houblon Melange label or is the font weird? Also, a quad from dG? I cannot wait.

    Anyone know if there are any Bu glasses left? I really wanted to head down today but had to wait until tomorrow.

    You should be fine tomorrow, at least near opening. With a nice weekend and Washington's spring break wrapping up, I suspect it will be a busy day.

    Well, after the FB post earlier today, the earlier ya can get there, the better, I suspect.

    I'm pretty sure quantity pp is limited, so that more people get a chance at the Bu memorial glass. That being said, the worst case scenario is that you don't get a glass and find yourself at dG? Swish.

    Can someone explain to me why people freak the funk out about de Garde glasses? I absolutely don't get it.

    Typically I would have that exact outlook, but I'm out of town the next five weekends, including the anniversary party down there. A 10+ hour roundtrip wasn't something I had planned for my only weekend at home for the next month+.

    It's actually less to do with de Garde and more to do with a brewery that I love making a glass with a cat on it and my gf who loves both de Garde and cats. I know, seems silly but it would make her year.

    So, if anyone local wants to help me out, I could reimburse + other glassware or beer to thank you and meet up at the anniversary party to exchange. Normally I wouldn't even think twice about making the trip down, just too much going on over the next month and a half to do it this weekend.

    Honestly was not calling you out. The craziness started long before this iteration.

    No worries, thought nothing of it. Coveting glassware and limited release glassware has always baffled me. More sentiment than anything for me on this one.

    I'd love to see Fremont do one for Boat the Cat, their unofficial UBG mascot.

    Imp Blackberry and Imp Marion were both sold out of the taproom over the last month or so.

    I'm pretty sure he's asking about the unfruited Bu Weisse, which saw some distribution last year (alongside Petit Desay).
