    The bar is pretty much dead, comparatively for this location. Nothing tapped and the tap list is better than the Anniversary party.

    It's early. I can bitch about the price structure for the Barrel Massacre with the best of 'em, but I'm still a huge fan boi at the end of the day, and they make damn good beer. Drinking Under Crown now, with Deal with the Devil on deck.

    Many of us have been tricked into being suckers for this place. I've had enough. No more of my money.

    Were you in that Odd Side thread? You'll get whiplash from how fast some of those guys went from "I THINK THEY SHOULD KILL THE HEAD BREWERS FIRST BORN!!!" to "You know maybe I'll just buy 4 bottles of this year's barrel aged releases instead of 4 cases....".

    I was out there Saturday around 5. I had a regular Hunter, BA Hunter Coffee Vanilla and BA Hunter Hazelnut. Wanted to try BA Hunter Coconut, but that kicked by the time I asked for it.

    I had never had anything from them so I made it a point to check out the event when I saw the taplist. I was also just put on to some of the drama surrounding the brewery (event costs and social media backlash). All that crap aside, I thought the beers I tried were all pretty good.

    I personally don't see anything wrong with both liking and buying their beer and also complaining / not giving them my $ when prices are ridiculous for an event.
