    we barely have enough beer for our tasting room, and right now Philly is the only place we send to. We send it up there because we like the guys at Bella Vista and we were originally planning a trip up there. Trip fell through but we still wanted to send some beers. I was blown away by the craft beer love in Philly, so I am happy to get some more beer up there. This will probably be the last until Philly beer week.

    You guys made quite the impression up here during beer week. I felt your events were easily some of the most heavily attended...and all I heard people talk about were your beers. Personally, I thought Last Snow was the best porter I've had...and your berliners are incredible. Very grateful we'll be seeing more of your beer imminently...and hope we get to see even more as you guys continue to grow.

    Cheers.

    Works for me! Hopefully I can make it to at least one FB event, as I just love their beers!

    I guess the Philly Berliner Bash isn't coming into fruition? Shame. Nonetheless, we love all your beers...cheers to the expansion!

    Funky Buddha twice a year is better than none at all! I'm psyched to have another opportunity to try more of your beers - can't wait to see where they pop up.

    Your knees must be sore.

    If Last Snow is better than Everett, I need to get a taste.

    Those beers aren't really comparable. Everett is pretty traditional. Last snow, not so much...

    That's right. Last Snow was a coffee porter, right? I never made it out to any event that had it. I was at monks before the berliner weisse event, but didn't stay.

    Thank you for the insight. I suppose I'll keep an ear to the ground.

    You must be a jerk. Was just throwing out some kind words because I'm appreciative of their work, and even more appreciative I'll have the opportunity to enjoy it again.

    And it is better than Everett. I agree...you need to get a taste.

    It's way different than Everett. Comparing Last Snow to normal porters isn't really useful. It tastes a bit like a Mounds bar.

    Also, Funky Buddha's twitter said some will be at Monk's. So, uh, get ready to be slammed into a room with 300 people that only fits 50.

    This is true. It's not a stock porter. Still, it's a porter, and it's my favorite.

    And whatever FB lands at Monk's, will not be that which I go after. The event there for the berliners was a complete an utter wreck. You're right. 300 people in a space for 50. Without a ticketing system or without some other means with which to run such an event...it's not even fun to attend. Will have to see where else this stuff ends up. Hopefully whatever doesn't end up at Monk's, doesn't end up at that ashtray the Hulmeville Inn.

    "Ashtray at the Hulmeville Inn" - thanks for the chuckle. Great bar, have a ton of awesome memories there, but coming home smelling like a human ashtray is awful.

    I just don't enjoy myself there...and that's coming from a former smoker.

    I am a jerk. Yes. And you must have thin skin. It was a joke.

    Thank you. I'll take your opinion and look for a Last Snow announcement from the distro and the local sources.

    I work with kids with autism and I definitely feel like interpreting conversation on the Internet is what it must be like for individauls with autism to interpret conversation face-to-face. Maybe I need to start using emoticons or stage direction. Cheers, dude.
