    Drakes for me and not the Bistro fest. I've had a great time at the releases and the line up for the tomorrow looks to be a great one.

    I wish I could do both, but I'll be pouring at the Barrel Aged Fest. Already got my Jolly Rodger keg secured, so not too bummed about missing out on the release.

    On a side note, they don't expect it to be too busy at opening since they only have 2 people staffed.

    I'll be out there for sure later today, excited to try jolly Rodger and some new barrel aged goodness

    Nice, I'll be on the lookout for that one. Is it bottled yet?

    It is. Yesterday was the bottle release also, so bottles should be hitting shelves this coming week...if not already.

    just opened a jolly roger, i do not know what makes this a barleywine. it smells and tastes like a big IPA. really really good though, i will definitely be grabbing a few more bottles while it's fresh. maybe it'll taste more barleywiney with some age.
