Forbidden Root (2018)

Little known fact...my middle name is "I have too much beer".

 

Though to be fair it's a loose translation from your Arabic name: لا بد لي من الكثير من البيرة

 

I always knew a cellar deep in Braggot's, Sahti, and Grodziskie would come in handy.

 

Sounds like I need to throw in another can...

 

Update...wake up time moved an hour later, and another can added to what I'm bringing.

 

Must... not... pre-game...

must.... hydrate....

 

Where are youuuuuuuuuuuuu?

 

We won game won. Lost game to by a run. My buddy needed driving back. Hope ya'll enjoyed yourself.

 

Another crazy share. @jlsims04 went with the nuclear sneak attack bottle. There will be retaliation.

 

How was the secret growler? My buddy had a migraine so there was no way I could make it back. I snuck in and grabbed my bag but I knew if i had one sample I would never leave.

 

Did you win? I'm sure @Quilentro will give you his detailed tasting notes, but it mostly tasted like barrel aged merb'y.

That was a hell of a good time you bunch of monsters. Thanks for hosting @KrajDoesBeer !

 

@KrajDoesBeer - thanks for another great share! KRAGE! I’ll remember.

@flat_lander - good to meet you finally! Did you get a chance to sneak the merbies onto the tanks?

@PhilBallins - thanks for being my Santa Clause.

Good seeing everyone!

 

We won game 1 10 to the other fucking team didn't show up. We were winning game 2 until the final inning when they scored 6 runs to beat us.

 

Had to be done after the second infected perennial beer lol.

 

Also - you guys think I’m crazy but I’m just a scientist:

It held up and tasted pretty close to when they had it on draft way back when. It even had a little carb, which was a nice surprise. Bummer about your friend. I set a pour aside for you but around 10:30pm we figured you weren't coming back and drank it (didn't see you sneak in, haha).

Why not both crazy AND a scientist?

@flat_lander good meeting you and your friend! Hope you guys can make it back again!

And as always, thanks to @KrajDoesBeer for hosting! There were a lot of stupid good beers last night!

 

I'm definitely glad I didn't end up having to get up at 5 am today...6 was tough enough.

Awesome beers all around, and special thanks to @GreatGazoo and @jlsims04 for the Coco-Nilla growler and BA Sump. It was great seeing a lot of the familiar faces and the new ones as well.
