    1) Congratulations! (I don't know how nobody has said this yet, except you @McMatt7 !? People must not care to read!)
    2) On that note, I hope you have something very special dedicated for this event, because it's the best event you'll ever have in your life!
    3) To answer initial question...I will be drinking a shit ton of Modern Times and Pizza Port variety packs as per usual (with some goodie bombers).
    Cheers to you, your wife, and your wonderful new bundle if joy!

    I've done it before, but I wasn't laughing.

    Agreed. Big fan of Fist City and Citra Hero, though it seems everyone sleeps on Bottoms Up Wit, which is a shame - a really solid wit.

    Definitely going to be cracking open a few Haze, Green, Julius, and MBC Dinner this holiday weekend. The Trillium I am going to leave at home so I have something to look forward to when I get back.

    Woke up this morning really craving Deschutes Chainbreaker for some reason, so I may add that to the lineup as well. For some reason, I think this is a pretty divisive beer, but I really dig it. Super drinkable, well-balanced, and pairs nicely with so many different foods.

    College football season starts today. Got me a couple four packs of Firestone oaktoberfest which now comes in pint cans. Excited for both. Cheers

    Congrats and best wishes on the 1st as @Lingenbrau stated above, it's the best time and enjoy the 1st night that Mom and baby spends in the hospital cause it may be a while till you'll have a quiet night, you'll see.

    As for beers this weekend, yes, my oldest is coming into town before moving to Denver and we're brewing a Breakfast Stout clone on Sunday so we'll be drinking our Fresh Squeezed and Zombie Dust clones we made.
    Cubs game tomorrow so it'll be either $10.00 Green Line draft or Goose IPA's
    We'll need a cart in Binny's to stock up for the patio time keeping an eye on the smoker cook a pork shoulder while watching some College football as they all stand up for the Anthem

    Safe weekend all.

    My wife and I just tried some Dogfish Head Festina Peche last night. Here in Vegas we are still over 100 degrees during the day and not dropping much at night. This beer was so damn refreshing!! My hat is off to Dogfish Head. We still have two more from our four pack so this should be a great one to crack open for the holiday. Review coming soon!!

    I will be in the lawn section with a Volume 4 shirt that has a thermal image of the band on the back.

    At the moment all I have is a bunch of Rushing Duck Zingerbier, a ginger Berliner Weiss. Hopefully I can get some Von Trapp stuff as well.

    Sunday, if my brother can make it, I'll be having whatever they're serving at the Star Trek convention. Otherwise I may be doing something else :slight_smile:.
