    Shared a '14 Stickee Monkee at DLD this year. It was dynamite.

    Pleasure to see/meet a lot of you! great night exemplifying the best of BA - excitement to try new things without being crazy about it. @KrajDoesBeer thank you for your hospitality. (Now give me good feedback for our old trade! :wink:)

    Excited for FR’s future. Nail that tasting menu, and I’ll be in heaven. Cheers!

    Had a great time last night-- Nice meeting you guys in person. Quite a kill list at the end of things. Surprisingly not feeling super hungover today either.

    Looking forward to the next one!

    Glad I got to attend last night - big thanks to @KrajDoesBeer for hosting us. And big thanks to everyone for bringing a nice variety of stuff. I wish I could've tried everything, but had to hold back a bit to be functional today. Looking forward to hopefully making more of these in the new year!

    Truly awesome time last night!! thanks for coming out.. think we had about 15-16 when all said and done any i think 7 were new! some great beer was shared!!! Thinking 3rd or 4th week of Jan for next one because I have a crazy start to the month!!!!

    I gotta say that the Schlafly The Variant is still kinda blowing my mind how good that was... i mean we know Casey/Benthic etc would be legit but man that beer floored me!

    Gents, great seeing/meeting you all last night. Brian, thanks for hosting. All, if I called you "Nick," don't be offended - when people tell me their names, i only hear the teacher from Peanuts. So "Nick" it is!

    @KrajDoesBeer spot on with that Schafly beer. So so different from anything out there.

    I mean, I think the more important question is - do you like German chocolate cake?

    Nick has been apart of our brewing plans/operations already and is moving his family here as we speak!

    BA Keine is tasting really nice- again i have a decent amount so I’m hoping it lasts till the new year but do not plan for that-

    Radio Swan... it’s tasting amazing... I’ve missed this beer... if you read back i mention no cans this run with mobile canning/our own canning line issues... next can will be Night Moth in Jan. Radio will be on for Growlers tho- fresh Haze for you NYE party!

    Dragon Zest is the Belgian Triple with Wild Citrus(some call Trifoliate lemons some wild oranges- a guy foraged them in the wild in Florida!) it’s really good if ya like the style and at 9% it’s perfect for getting a buzz and dealing with the fam

    The Buckledowns BA RIS and Marz HoliHaze are both on for your enjoyment as well!

    PS.. Toro is in the schedule sooner than later :slight_smile: - no plans on cans or not this run. Please don’t ask!
